Thanks you guys!! :) I had a 4.0 GPA when applying, for pre-reqs and overall (although I still need to finish up 2 classes, one being A&P) at Virginia Tech. I'm currently a freshman Bio major by the way. My SAT was 1330 and my ACT was 29 (I submitted both). I had a little volunteer experience at the hospital... hmm can't really think of what else. I'll try to PM my email if I can figure it out haha! Crossing my fingers for you!

With your grades and your SAT score I'm sure you'll get some scholarships from VCU!

Congratulations. :yeah:

Yea I did not get in either I thought I would at least get wait listed. Ameliagal, are you applying next year to?

ameliagal · Mar 18, 2011

yeah, i'll apply again next year. It ticks me off....... :no:

alex189 · Mar 18, 2011

Thanks Cathylady, I will definitely look into scholarships.

Good luck to both of you two! I really hope you guys make it in to VCU or whereever you choose to go! :)

@ xonursej,didn't you apply to germanna too?

xonursej · Mar 18, 2011

Yep. I am going to apply to J Sarge to. And if I dont get into those :/ bon secours and john tyler and nova as well lol. I know I have good credentials, its just a matter of space available. Nursing is so complicated to get into. It feels like medical school!

ameliagal · Mar 18, 2011

Exactly!!! Its crazy. When did you turn your application in for VCU? I know its suppose to be in a month before Jan. 15th. I finished my pre-reqs last semester but my grades werent on my transcript til few days before Christmas!! I'm going to talk to admissions for John Tyler for their nursing program. I couldn't apply to their or reynolds because I'm taking physiology and that has to be completed before I apply. Right now I have A in lab and B in the lecture. It's not as hard as anatomy and the lecture and lab grades aren't combinded,so thats good:D Anatomy was crazy hard. I had C in the lab and B in lecture and ended up with 77 with the two combined.

xonursej · Mar 19, 2011

I had to take anatomy like three times in high school lol. the first time was the regular course just for fun, then I had some of it for my emt class, then i took it as dual enrollment for college credit. My cum. GPA was a 3.8 but my pre req GPA was a 4.0. I hope I get in somewhere ugh

ameliagal · Mar 19, 2011

I'm retaking anatomy in the summer, may23-jun23:D The good thing is I kept my book from last spring and lab manual. The bad new is,its gonna cost at least $1000:crying2: I going to retake ACT too and apply to john tyler and reynolds.:w00t: glad i'm out my depression state.lol We just gotta keep trying. Like John Cena says"Never give up,never back down":nono:

xonursej · Mar 19, 2011

Yea thats true. When are you applying to reynolds, for spring? I think I might apply for fall for Reynolds but IDK, I am tired of applying ugh I thought I would be done with this in high school!
