Hi everyone. I need some serious help. I recently graduated from USF with my bachelors degree in Pscyhology. My overall GPA is definitely not good at all, but it was good enough to get the degree. I'm pretty much looking to start all over again but am finding it EXTREMELY difficult to do so. I tried to start out by doing the LPN program first but found out that the school does not participate in loan programs (which at this point is my only option.) Then I found out that as of right now, Valencia College is accepting applications for SUMMER 2013!! And in order to even apply, you have to have all your pre-reqs done which could take about a year and a half. I know I'm venting, I'm sorry. What I guess I am trying to figure out is, is there ever really a guarantee? I have heard so many horror stories about people being rejected from the RN programs multiple times and they eventually give up. Where do you go from there? I don't want to give up on trying to pursue a career in nursing but it seems like every one in the central florida region makes it impossible for you to succeed (or even try for that matter.) I don't mind doing the pre-reqs over again (it will be beneficial for me since my GPA was so low - I knew I had to pretty much start all over again.) I guess I just need some uplifting words.
