RN to BSN GPA question...

[bols27]

I have searched to see if anyone has asked this before but for the life of me can not find anything on it previously. I am sure there are some ADN to BSN students out there and I would like to know, does your ADN GPA figure into your cumulative GPA for your BSN program? Along with that, I might be interested in advanced practice in the future, when I see GPA requirements for those programs is that your BSN GPA only? I have been banging my head against a wall with my program "not giving As." Literally, they will not give you an A no matter how proficient you prove to be. It is an ADN program so I am currently trying to decide if I should transfer to a school that isn't ridiculous or not worry about it since when I complete my BSN my GPA will only reflect courses in which I am able to earn the grades I deserve. (PLEASE no comments on my schools grading policy, my study habits, or some sort of advice on how to beat my current situation by intense will and determination. I assure you, this is a policy that is set in stone and is likely going to result in some staff turnover in the near future.)

The BSN-MSN program I have been looking at in my area, UNLV, requires a cum GPA of 3.00 in the last two years of undergraduate work. Hope that helps!

It shouldn't, if you go to another school they will give you transfer credit, but they won't figure the prior school's grades into their GPA calculation for your performance at their school.

When you see requirements for bsn, and msn programs they are just requiring that your cumulative gpa be above 2.5 for example. But when you get into those programs they will not figure that into your gpa at that school. Gpa can only be earned at that school from the courses taken there. They will only grant you transfer credits.
