wondering myself what makes a strong applicant

Good afternoon. At this point I know I need to redo some of my prereqs, they are past the timeframe of 7 years (wow I feel old now lol my science classes are expired) I plan to knock those out spring and summer semester at forsyth tech then apply for next year's cycle at WSSU ABSN program. I live in WS so for me this is local. I was wondering what do you think makes a competitive applicant? Providing I perform well on these my GPA is high, 3.8 right now without these courses. I will have 7 years of experience in direct patient care , my previous bachelor degree is in Psychology which I plan to become a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I am also a military veteran. Can you think of anything I can add that would make me more competitive or not really? I cannot relocate so if I don't get in with WSSU...well... all of my eggs in one basket. Anyone who has been admitted, what did they seem to look for the most? Appreciate any thoughts, thanks
