Re-Applying

So, I made it to nursing clinicals in the Fall of 2012, however I had to drop because I had to help out at home. In fact, I transferred schools and moved in with my grandma to help her with the bills and mortgage. I continued going to school to earn credits so that I would lose the motivation of becoming a nurse, but my grades suffered due to working two full time jobs. This semester is looking a lot brighter, and I was wondering if it is the right time to apply for clinicals, I'm worried because I only have a 2.8 GPA but if things go as planned I'll have a 3.1. Would this be enough to get into clinicals, and what about my past?! I dropped out of clinicals at my last school. Maybe they wouldn't want someone who's done this.

I think this would be entirely up to the prospective program.

Since (most) programs are cohort based, I would think it would be very difficult to ask a program to join "just for clinicals," GPA nonwithstanding.

I think this would be even more complicated by the fact that it seems you have switched target schools.

I strongly suggest you make a face-to-face appointment with the head of the nursing department to discuss your situation. In this situation, I don't think an email or phone call would be adequate to explain your specific situation.

I agree with the PP- you need to talk to the program director. Find out what the likelihood is that you will get what you're looking for, or what your options are.
