What are my chances?

I graduated from my university back in 2020 during the pandemic. During my tenure there, I had many personal issues and I did not apply myself, doing only the bare minimum needed to graduated with my degree (3.12 GPA).

After working through the pandemic as an EMT and surrounding myself with encouraging individuals, I returned to community college to finish my prereqs for an MSN and retake some of my old classes (4.0 GPA from community college).

I did not graduate with a degree in nursing from my university and am not a current RN. I am applying for direct-entry MSN programs around the country but I have no real sense of whether or not I actually have a shot of getting into any of them. Most programs have a minimum GPA of 3.0 which I meet, but I still feel like my 3.1 GPA from university will haunt me despite my 4.0 GPA since entering community college.

I have over two years of on and off EMT experience working IFT, 911 and wound care (over 2500 hours). But I do not have any awards or recognitions from my undergraduate.

I might just be too paranoid, but do you think I have a shot? If so, which programs do you think I'd have the best chance at actually getting into?

    Schools are desperate for students.  Apply to many and go with the cheapest.
