LVN

Hi,

I am an LVN residing in CA. I have been applying to a bridge program here in the bay area. I have applied about 4 times and I recently found out why I was ineligible. I graduated in 2007 with a child development degree, though I was pre nursing at first. I got a C+ in Anatomy and a C in Microbiology and a B in physiology. A years later,  I got my LVN. Then after a few years I  decided to re-take Anatomy for a better grade at a different institution. I got a B. After a semester or two, I took Microbiology over and dropped with a "W." Due to the repeat of the 2 sciences, I was ineligible. The Dean told me I need to do an academic renewal for the courses. Unfortunately, I can't do that because I already graduated. So I am frustrated and I don't know what to do. My sciences are now expired if I want to apply at another school. The school I applied at does not have recency. If I retake the courses again, it will disqualify me to apply at the school. Those who have been in my situation, what advice would you give me? Take the courses over or go to a private school? Thanks in advance?

Try taking the courses at another college in a different district!
