That's a loaded question. I believe you best bet would be to contact the GA BORN. for their latest news on what is required.

Since you are not an fnp yet you need to change your user name to reflect fnp2B

I am pretty sure that MCG allows you to use the MAT (Miller Analogies Test) in lieu of the GRE for their graduate nursing programs except for the CRNA. I am starting the MSN-CNL program next month and I used my MAT in lieu of the GRE as I did far-and-away better on the MAT. Good Luck!

I've not heard of any graduate program that does not require some sort of testing.

I haven't either. Every grad program I've looked at requires either the GRE or MAT.

You have to think about this logically. Since GPA is subjective, most any school worth its salt has to require a standardized test to evenly judge applicants. A 4.0 at one school with a less rigorous reputation might only translate to a 3.5 at another school. Your undergrad. GPA is very respectable. My advice to you is to use great references, solid experience, and work toward achieving the min. required score on one of the two tests so you can apply to the programs. Good Luck.

Most schools I have looked at waive if you have obtained a certain GPA. University of Alabama Birmingham and University of Central Arkansas are a few that I have looked at. There is a private college in Birmingham that doesnt require MAT/GRE.
