Soo...I'm a pre-nursing student at CSUEB, and my first quarter I got a 1.74 GPA and now this quarter I have a 1.75. I have a C- in a prerequisite (ENGLISH). Does this mean I will not qualify for the nursing program; because the english class isn't on the grade forgiveness list. Any input would help, thanks.

Most, if not all, private and public schools have a minimum GPA requirement above 2.0. Because of the competitiveness of nursing schools, the actual acceptance GPA is usually well above 3.0. With your current GPA will find it very difficult to get accepted into nursing school without re-taking all classes below As and Bs.

you are not getting into nursing school with those grades.
