Spring Arbor University looks at the last 60 hours. I did not have a stellar GPA but my recommendations, experience and personal essay and a great admissions councelor got me accepted into the program.

I just got accepted to an online nurse practitioner program at Spring Arbor University. It's been 14 years since I was in school. I have never taken an online class before and I am really apprehensive wondering if I can do this. I feel like I will be self teaching myself. Can anyone please give me some advice?

I Need some help please. I currently have a BSN and have 13 years experience. My problem is my low GPA over all 2.55 last 40 hours 2.88. Prior to getting this degree I also obtained a BSW straight out of high school 25 years ago and some of those courses I didn't do so well which lowered my GPA. I am finding it difficult to find an NP program that will except me. I do understand that there are circumstances that may be considered but even provisional acceptance is a 2.75 with good reasons why a GPA would be that low. I did get accepted into college for the MSN program but that's geared more towards teaching( they do not offer NP program but it is the same college I received my BSNfrom)which I do not want to do. My thought was to get the degree (Pull up my GPA) then transfer to another University for NP however colleges only except no more than 11 transfer hourswhich would basically have me completely starting over and would make no sense. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do to make this happen I refused to have any college tell me I can't do this based on low grades from over 20 years ago. I am trying to find an online program that will take a lower GPA I know I can do this work, that's not my concern but I feel so let down. I understand I did this to myself but these grades do not reflect my intelligence and my ability to become a nurse practitioner. Appreciate any advice and help that I can get on how to make this happen thank you.
