Low GPA need help finding schools!
Hi! I meant two year schools as in 2 year bsn programs, I didn't want to look for 3 year nursing programs. I'm already done with all my pre-reqs. The only options I have now is to retake courses, but I just wanted to see if anyone has any recommendations for schools.

Low GPA need help finding schools!
Hello! I messed up in school the first two years, and made b's and c's in all my maths and sciences. I have a 2.87 with a 2.46 science gpa. Made an 85 on my teas but I want to retake it to do better. I'm looking at BSN schools, and I have no idea who will accept me with my low gpa! It's so competitive in Georgia schools around the metro area, and I'm starting to panic because I'm already a year and a half behind now! Anyone have any luck getting into a good two year program with the same situation as me? Also, please list recommendations for schools around metro Atlanta, or Georgia in all. Thank you!

Only African American Nurse on Staff
I really do feel for you, and I know how it is to be around people who can't embrace other ethnicities and culture. I'm just a student, so don't fully take my word on it, but they're completely wrong and ignorant! Keep looking for other jobs! And if possible, talk to your boss or whomever is in charge. Let them know how you feel, and what's going on. Prejudice is something the hospital wants to avoid, because it's supposed to be an environment where people are their to help everyone, no matter what race or color.

Low GPA and need help with a track plan!
So I messed up in school for the first two years, due to personal issues and I'm now a Junior. I've always been set on nursing, and I still am! Now I'm having a hard time getting into nursing school due to my 2.87 gpa, and 2.46 science gpa. I did okay on the TEAS making an 85, but I'll be taking it again to do better. ALL of the nursing advisors at Clayton State are HORRIBLE. They're incredibly discouraging, and do their best to avoid helping you. They will not help me make a track plan, and instead send me off stating "retake all sciences and maths". My advisor messed me up and I signed up for wrong classes because she provided me the wrong list of courses, and she ignored all of my emails and messages until AFTER add/drop period, and now I'm another semester behind! (I had amazing advisors at Georgia State, so I know how advisors are supposed to work with students). I need help making a track plan for a BSN program, because I'm just wasting time retaking courses. I've decided to do a double major with healthcare administration just so that I have something to complete while I try to get into nursing school. Help please?! I'm now desperate and incredibly stressed!

Starting to fall behind, change major?
So I was intended to graduate in 2016 (which doesn't matter at all), and I was supposed to be in nursing school this fall (which again doesn't matter). The reason why I can't get into nursing school is because of my science gpa. So even if I pull up my gpa, I still wouldn't know if I could get it because of competition. Now I'm starting to stress because I'm wasting my time retaking classes for a year. What other options do I have? I'm starting to wonder if I should change my major to become a PA.
