Specializes in SRNA.

You haven't mentioned if you are trying to pursue a BSN or MSN, but most second degree programs (and esp. accelerated programs) will require a minimum 3.0 GPA. You can obtain a list of accredited degree programs from your state BON and begin researching the requirements. Also, all of the accelerated programs I've found require some form of personal/goal statement. Usually, a BSN program wouldn't require the GRE as you are not attending graduate school.

Taking the GRE isn't required for all ABSN programs, but it's definitely not unheard of. Here's one example:
