--So far I have a 4.0 GPA in the pre-reqs, (but I have only taken 2...Nutrition for Nurses and Child Psychology)

--Am currently in the process of completing the other pre-reqs...anticipating A's or B's.

--have work and volunteer experience in hospitals/dr. offices

PLEASE HELP!

What are my chances of getting into NYU accelerated BSN program??

Extremely good. I wouldn't even worry about it.

Okay whew...I got really nervous when I called NYU admissions and they told me that the program is "really competitive and most of the applicants are "A" students" !!!

SO then I was worried that my undergrad GPA (3.3) wasn't high enough....

Is there anything else I can do?

Should I send my GRE scores?

Any other advice?

Emphasize your health care experience and dedication to nursing in your personal statements. Make sure they read well and are typo free then RELAX ;)

Don't bother sending your GRE scores, they won't look at them is what they told me back when I applied.

If it makes you feel better my cumulative GPA was only 3.1

NYU is really into leadership in nursing and encouraging people to go on for advanced degrees so if you want to work that in somehow you can.
