| What schools are good for nursing but offer a traditional college experience (ie: not commuter schools). DC is under 3.5 GPA. We are in NoVA. |

| Miami and Auburn both offer nursing programs. Not sure about GPA though. |

| GMU. Don't go to Marymount - it's on the verge of bankruptcy. |

Emory has a strong nursing program. They also award FA.
Georgetown also has a strong nursing program as does NYU. There have been special bonuses for Georgetown and NYU in the past where you get to attend tuition free if you commit to 3 yrs nursing locally. I don't know if any of these are still active, but it is worth investigating. |

Some of these answers are just no. Emory, GT and NYU with a 3.5? Come on.
JMU is a crapshoot, you have to have Bs and above in your prereqs to apply with any chance. 120 get in, usually out of 200 applicants. Look at Longwood direct entry nursing. |
