Nursing Students Post Graduate
Published
Hey Everyone!!
I'm still a little new here but I have been doing a lot of research regarding direct entry MSN programs. This fall I am finally graduating from college and I am so happy. It's been a long road for me especially with medical difficulties (a brain tumor), but it's almost here! This is currently my 5th year of college and I was a chemistry major for 4 years before deciding to switch to a psychology major. Unfortunately I didn't do so stellar in my physical chemistry class (failed) thus the decision to a psychology major. At graduation I will have a psychology major and chemistry minor. My cumulative GPA as you would expect from failing classes isn't stellar as well, 2.73 currently. I was very proud of myself last semester making a 3.5 GPA and the dean's list!!! Anyways, I have a few pre-reqs to take before applying to nursing programs (A&P 1&2, microbiology, etc.), but I really wanted to ask what are my chances of getting into a direct entry MSN program? I would really like to implement my psychology degree so I would prefer to go into psychiatric nursing. Programs I have been looking into have been MGH, Vanderbilt, etc. Any help or thoughts would be much appreciated! Thank you.
