What about repeating some of the D classes at a community college? You didn't say what the classes were so I'm not sure if that's an option.

Have you talked to the actual nursing programs to see what they may suggest?

I would think if you could somehow repeat something or other to boost the GPA, it may take a while longer than you want, but I should think that's doable in the long run for nursing.

I don't know of any tech school that would bridge into a nursing program, only taking college classes is all that I know of.

Good luck to you....if there's a will there's a way!
