Any help, please? I'm desperate!

Hey all... I've been freaking out lately because I don't know what to do with school. I'm going to the University of Utah for two years, and I've switched majors a zillion times. I've also taken a ton of science courses (intro to chem, chem lab, biology, physiology) and didn't do great in them because I was a stupid college kid and decided to party, rather than study. Because of this, my GPA is pretty low (3.1) and I've decided I really, really want to become a nurse. Is it even possible for me? I have C's and B-'s in a ton of the pre-nursing science prerequisites, and my GPA is horrible. And I also have a W. I had a 4.3 GPA in high school with tons of AP classes and college courses, and I came to college and got involved with the wrong crowd... and now it's taken me MANY mental breakdowns to realize that I've messed up, horribly. Would I be able to re-take my science classes? I know nursing programs really frown upon re-taken prerequisites. I'm also thinking of wiping the slate clean and transferring to Weber State University, without transferring my credits. I realize I would be behind and I would have to take a few more generals, but having a good looking transcript is far outweighing the negatives (a little extra work since I would be wiping the slate clean). Any thoughts?
