Are there any schools that offer BSN or ABSN programs that look at your prereq GPA and not your overall GPA for admissions? I am willing to apply anywhere!

I don't know where you're located but I am an Ivy Tech student in Indiana. Our program only looks at the scores in 4 courses, as well as the score on the TEAS V entrance exam. There are quite a few programs out there that limit what they look out when accepting students. Good luck!
I looked at the requirements for csu fresno, and it says in order to be eligible you have to have an overall GPA of 3.0 (which I don't have), but that admission is based on your GPA on those 8 prereqs. Did I understand that correctly?

Like the above poster said, I don't know where ur located either but my school, community college, wor-wic is exactly what you're looking for. Our admission is only based on the five pre reqs for nursing program
I'm located in the Pacific Northwest, but I'm open to going anywhere if it means becoming nurse.

My school only looks at GPA for Statistics, A&P I and II, and Chemistry along with responses to a few short essays. Oh, I go to Boise State:)
Are there any ABSN programs that just require prereq GPA?
Yes, again, that would be my school, wor wic, but it seems you live far just to travel to MD
My college does but u live pretty far to move to MD
Yes, there is an ABSN program (at Idaho State University) located near my school as well. They look at prereq GPA, TEAS score and an interview. I was going to apply there to start in the Spring but was accepted to my school (and I wanted to start as soon as possible)
