   I hope you all make it. Times are very tough with the cut off GPA of 3.8. Its mainly due to how tough things are. When I got into the program more then a year ago, the cutoff GPA was only a 3.5. Big difference from a 3.8. It is very stressful to get ...

   About a year ago students with a 3.5 were accepted with no problem at all. I am so surprised with the whole budget cut and everything. I mean with the shortage of nurses now and everything this is just going to make things so much worse. I am also sa...

    If you have your CPR just make sure that you do not have it expired before your program ends. Make sure that it is valid while you are taking classes! And congratulations! You know what they say...better late then never. On a lighter note you still ...

    I can not believe that students with a 3.7 GPA are not getting in!!! Things seem to be getting really bad. Do not worry, because for us already in the program it has been a struggle. We have a Critical thinking careplan, and pharmacology exam we have...
