I'm thinking about transferring to St. Joseph's College of Nursing and was wondering what the specific transfer requirements are. Do I need a certain GPA or specific prerequisites completed beforehand?
The transfer process to St. Joseph's College of Nursing involves a few steps and requirements.
First, you must have an overall GPA of 2.5 or higher from all previously attended colleges. This is an important criterion, as St. Joseph's values academic achievements.
Next are the course prerequisites, which must be completed before applying. The required courses are:
1. Anatomy and Physiology I with Lab
2. Anatomy and Physiology II with Lab
3. Microbiology with Lab
4. English Composition I
5. Intro to Psychology
6. Lifespan Development or developmental psychology
Beyond these, you also have to submit your college transcripts from all previously attended institutions. Keep in mind that completed application packets need to include an application form, official high school and college transcripts, and two letters of recommendation.
Additionally, acceptance into the program will also depend on seat availability. Meeting the minimum requirements only assures consideration and does not guarantee acceptance.
Remember to also fill in the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) application if you plan on applying for financial aid.
It's important to check the school's official website or directly contact the admissions office to get the most accurate and updated information.
