Wow that's crazy how similar our situation was lol Its very frustrating! But I'll defiantly apply to all of the programs. If I get into an ADN I'll still be happy even If I'll feel as if I'm going backwards. I just really didn't want to go back to school again you know? Can I ask what school you're attending to get your ADN? I'm in South Florida so Miami Dade College is really the only option for an associates.

Yeah ADN seems like my only option left. Ugh why did I have to slack off during my bachelors degree! LOL I guess i didn't think I would go back to school. Oh well.

Thanks for the help everyone. I still feel at a lose with this =/ Even if they look at my last 60 credit hours those are the classes I did not do well in. Does anyone have any school suggestions with a lower gpa? Also is it possible to take some extra classes now to boost my gpa since some look at the last 60 credits? Thanks

Hi! Thank you for your response. I have looked at every school around me but they all require a minimum of 3.0 gpa. Same with the absn and traditional bsn. The only one that requires a 2.75 minimum is the community college I'm at which is horrible. I want to get away from this school as soon as possible. Nobody speaks English! It is very frustrating. =/ Do my prereqs raise my overall gpa?

Hi everyone! So I am new to this site and I was wondering if anyone could share some input on my current situation. I already have my Bachelors degree in Hospitality from FIU but I graduated with a 2.98 gpa due to some personal problems and because I knew it was something I did not want to pursue towards the end of my last semester lol. My associates degree overall gpa was about 3.67. I will be going back to the community college that I got my associates in starting in January to begin my prerequisites which should take about 3 semesters to complete. Anywho, I was wondering how do schools look at your gpa? Do they include your prereqs separately or with your undergraduate gpa? I'm so confused I don't think I have a chance at getting into a absn since my gpa is so low. Everything is a minimum of a 3.0 where I live and most places anyway. What do you guys think? Could I raise my gpa if I ace all of my prereqs? Also, how does the traditional BSN work with someone who already has a bachelors degree? I really don't want to go backwards and get my associates degree =/ I would really appreciate any advice that you guys can share! I feel so clueless right now and I just want to get started!
