Low GPA?

I've got that. My overall GPA is 2.213.

And I got accepted! First try!

My school only considers classes that are in the curriculum, and I have all A's and B's in the prereqs.

Wow!!! Good for you!!!!

Congrats! What school was this?

What school do you go to? Good job!

Wow! At my school you have to have a 2.7, and I have a 2.4. So I'm working to get A's in the classes I'm taking now to raise my gpa.

That's great! Congrats!

Thanks everyone.

PM me for the school name.

They require a 2.75 program GPA. They don't look at the other classes at all. My program GPA is 3.5

Congrats! Can you please message me the school name? I can't send private messages. Thanks!

Congrats!! I am in a similar situation, my cumulative GPA is ony a 2.6 due to immaturity at another school years ago when I was right out of highschool. However, I am now at a local community college taking prereqs for their ADN program, and they only look at your pre-req GPA for the required pre-reqs for the program, not your cumulative. I currently have a 4.0 in my pre-reqs, so I'm thankful my cumulative doesn't matter to my school too!

Awesome!!!! This gives us hope! CONGRADS!!!! :up:

This is encouraging to hear because I graduated college back in 2000 (BA in Journalism) and I was young and dumb and wasn't really serious about school back then, so I scraped by graduating with an ending GPA of 2.5. Was scared I would have a really tough time getting into nursing school with that GPA (but they may not accept my past courses anyway because it was over 12 years ago), so I'm hoping to raise my GPA with stellar prereq grades.

I've got that. My overall GPA is 2.213.

And I got accepted! First try!

I can't pm either, can you tell me the state you are in? thanks
