Ours will be ALL white head to toe, too! I have heard "through the grapevine" that our new Dean of Nursing may be changing them to blue or red! (fingers crossed!) : )

Congrats!!! We are close! I have relatives at JSCC! I believe some of my clinicals will be in Jackson! Are you excited?

Ok! Lol I have a 3.5 gpa. But it is lower as far as the nursing program is concerned because I went to college 10 years ago and dropped out. They average any existing gpa with the one at your school. So it's a 2.9 as far as the nursing program is con...

I'm taking two courses over summer. Medical Terminology and Spanish ( high school deficiency, unfortunately) and spending time with my husband, son, and family! Starting ADN nursing program in the fall! Going to be a memorable summer getting ready fo...

Imagine having a 10 year old gpa haunting you to only rear it's ugly face when you finally apply for the 30 out of 300 spots! This happened to me when I applied for spring 2012! But... Insted of giving up, I picked myself up, retook the one class I h...

I'm going to Dyersburg State in Tn. It's an ADN program. Not sure exactly what you are referring to when you say stats ( sorry!)

I got accepted for the fall too! I have been brushing up on math for allied health and some a&p. I'm so nervous!

I forgot to mention that I am NOT eligible for an Academic Fresh Start. Even if I requested one at the current college, it would not remove my grades/GPA from the previous college. I would have to go back and enroll in the previous college and compl...

UPDATE: I went to see another advisor yesterday. Two of them actually saw me. They were unaware of my situation and were willing to dig a little deeper for me. They were very apologetic, sympathetic, and helpful. My GPA actually is NOT below a 2.5. a...

@cherry02 - that's what i'm having questions about. i think you are correct. i am going to call monday and ask them if i am eligible, and if not i am going to talk to the president of the school to see if there is a way to give me an academic fresh ...

I appreciate your opinion. I don't think you are understanding exactly where I was going with the post. I do not disagree that "screwing around" your first try at college is a mistake. I'm also not saying that I should deserve the spot over a person ...

I am applying for Spring 2013 at Lowenberg School of Nursing at the University of Memphis. I could have applied this time, but I didn't get a chance to schedule to take the TEAS before all the spots were full (LOOOONG STORY). I have a 3.56 right now....

thanks for all the info and support! it really helped! i needed to hear it from people who would understand my situation and how i'm feeling! i looked at the academic fresh start at my school. it says this: "a student who has not attended an institut...
