Southern CT State University ACE Acceptance

Nursing Students School Programs

Hi all, I was wondering if you could give me an idea about what your grades are for this school. C+ or better average, but most acceptances are accepting GPAs (prereq, I believe) above 3.4 . I got B's in AP I from a 4 yr university and I retook AP II at a CC and got a B. My pre req GPA is probably going to be around a 3.4 and I'm getting my CNA license within the next 3 months so I will have at least a year to work after I'm done with my bachelor's. I also do an independent study at my school that is research based and will have taken bio stat before I graduate.

Do you think I'll get in, assuming that none of this changes?

Hi dreamcatcher17!

I applied for the 2016 ACE start and am nervously waiting a decision. I have a low GPA of 3.1 (unfortunately, working full-time and getting married during school did not leave me much room for the amount of study time that I would have liked to have). I currently work as an exercise specialist for a pediatric weight management program for Yale School of Medicine. I have a BS in Exercise Science, a AS in Science and a CNA Certification. I also have 2 years of hospital volunteering under my belt. Just hoping my essay and well rounded experiences earn me a spot. Also applied to QU but afraid that if accepted to that program I may be unable to afford the cost.

Hopefully we are notified of our decisions in March so we can start planning.

Thanks & Good Luck!

I am pretty sure we will hear back after April 1st. The email sent out last stated that April 1st was the earliest meaning anytime between then and the end of April. Long wait.

It's weird I have not been receiving any email updates
