  5. Worried sick

    Trenata replied to lcraig0011's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I don't know how it all works, but I feel a misdemeanor in youth is more easily disregarded than say a felony or more recent misdemeanors. I would keep going and get the degree. Do well, impress your...

    Trenata replied to stewartfamily2010's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  12. Chemistry Question - Is it necessary?

    Trenata posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Trenata replied to Trenata's topic in Western Governors University

  20. I passed, you didnt.

    Trenata replied to FutureRNKKP's topic in General Students

    Trenata replied to __patiently_waiting's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Trenata replied to 2016hun's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Unfortunately, they don't base admittance on the minimum GPA - it will depend on the cohort of students and their GPAs, entrance exam scores and other considerations for the program. That is what they...
