Hello, At my school - J Sargeant Reynolds Community college in VA.. the lowest GPA you could have and still make it into the program was 2.5 for the pre-req's i ended up with a 3.8.. i start the program august 24th... hope this helps

My sister and I got our letters on Saturday... we are officially going to nursing school in the fall. Im really excited... good luck to everyone who also got a letter and good job

If i get accepted for the fall of 09.. i will be 21 or 22

Hi, I graduated from high school in 2007. I also applied for bon secours the year i graduated and got in on the first try. Age doesnt matter with Bon secours.. if you are taking an evening class i think that you will be fine working and caring for your baby. Just keep in mind i think they make you do Saturday clinicals with evening classes. Right before i went into my classes the head of admissions was working on talking to newly graduated high school students and asking if they wanted to defur for a few semsester to get some pre-reqs out of the way. Thats when i made the decision to go to J sarg and take all the pre-reqs and go right into the program either at bon secours or J Sargeant Reynolds Community Clooege. They prefer that you do not work or working part time. But after a few semsters you can go and ask, and they will try to find u a job inside the hospital and i have even heard of them counting that as your clinicals. Like I said i got in but i didnt attend a class there. If bon secours does not pan out i would look at attending J sarg ( if you are in the richmond area) Hope this helps. Stacey

I want to join this group too..... I am not over weight but i still dont feel healthy plus i would like to look alittle better too .... i want to lose a little weight before i go in to nursing school in the fall or summer ( i am waiting for my acceptance letter) so i will feel alittle better about myself and feel healthier too... :wink2:
