Hi all...need some adivce,
I was kicked out of a nursing program last spring after my first semester due to failing two classes with a C. Even though it was just shy of point something mind you (not even a full point). I was not prepared for the rigorous full time work load, my family was going through a lot of hardships and I was also working which I think all contributed to my dismay. I filed a grievance letter but to no avail I was still let go. I won't call the name of the school because I don't want to bad mouth it just yet before I graduate. Anyway, since then I changed my major to Psychology and will be graduating this may. I manged to pull my gpa back up to a 3.0 and have been applying EVERYWHERE in New York since i got dismissed but all I seem to be getting are rejection letters. You name it, i've probably applied there (Accelerated, Associated, 4 year programs). I have spent almost over $200 in application fees, transcript requests and exam fees. My total rejection letters as of today are 5 and I am really starting to give up hope. Nursing is my passion and I really don't want to give up on my dream. I think that one semester of nursing school on my transcript is really screwng me over. I am not a dumb girl. There are mostly all A's on my transcript from gen prereq's and also B's in my science prereq's. Made the deans list 3 semesters since my 4 years in college. Any advice? Has this happened to anyone else and they got accepted somewhere else? If so which schools? Please help me. Please give me some ounce of hope.
