I'm kind of confused about why A&P I and II are listed in the college catalog as PART of the program, if they are both actually prerequisites. Upon speaking with an admissions rep before I applied, she did not make this clear to me and I was never under the impression that it would be an immediate rejection if both weren't completed, which is why I bothered to apply in the first place. If I had known, I wouldn't have wasted my time, or the professors' who wrote my recommendations. I just think they should take those courses out of the nursing curriculum, and if they're required beforehand they should make that clear. Maybe I just missed the boat on the whole thing, and since I was never able to make it to an info session it's probably my fault, but I wish they would make it clearer.

I'm glad I'm not the only person mystified about this! I almost wonder if I had applied to an accelerated BSN program for people with previous degrees, if I might have had a better chance of getting into one of those. I tried to choose the community college path because it is so economical, but now I don't really know what to do.

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a little insight on what it would have taken for me to be accepted to GBCC- I wasn't accepted or even waitlisted, and I'm trying to figure out what I can do to increase my chances next year. I had thought I had a really good chance- got a 148 composite score on the NLN, took A&P I and got an A (though I did not have A&P II completed...maybe that's a big problem), have a previous degree and did very well academically, and my references were very good. I'm interested in what more they are looking for, as I really want to change careers to nursing. Thanks :)

Crookededna, when did you receive notice that you were waitlisted at Great Bay? This makes me nervous, considering their application deadline was less than two weeks ago, and I barely made it!! Good luck to you on the other schools :)

Hi everyone! I'm looking for some insight into applying to Great Bay- I was under the impression that A&P I and II were part of the program and not prerequisites, but the impression that I got from an admissions counselor was that I need to have these done before I apply? Any information from anyone who applied, or is attending, regarding the admissions process would be greatly appreciated (regarding test scores, background, etc.) Thanks!
