College Acceptance Rate Question

[lealea1005]

Her GPA is 3.9, and she already has nursing experience from a prior job.

Is she already an LPN or RN? If not, she doesn't have "nursing experience".

You say her GPA os 3.9. Are the courses she took science oriented (A&P, Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, etc.) or are they Liberal Arts only? Although I finish my Nursing degree ions ago, I do remember that being enrolled at the university with a great GPA was not a guarantee of admission into the nursing program.

Also, along with the current nursing shortage is also a shortage in qualified nursing instructors. Many programs are cutting back on enrollment.

Even so, good luck to her.

Is there only one nursing school left in the whole nation?

I know of several good 2 year programs, but I guess OP's wife is too good to apply to a community college to get her ASN.

You're right.

An "ion" is quite different from an "eon". Which is the word you were looking to use.

I still find it amazing that supposedly competent adults are incapable of asking questions for themselves, but rely on Mommy, Daddy - or a spouse - to do so for them. Maybe OP's wife - if she's as concerned as he is - could come and ask her own questions.
