nursing program

Im currently a sophmore in college and I want to apply for the nursing program next year. Do you think that they will accept me if i have a 3.3 GPA and have done some volunteering at the hospital. I will have all of my prerequisites done by next year i just couldn't apply this year because i did bad in chemistry and im going to retake it to get an A. I really hope i get in, what do you think? Any other suggestions to help me to get in?

^ volunteering yes
GPA, get it up.

The supplemental application is a bit odd to answer, they really look for people who have experience in the life sciences.

Um, I know admissions rate for it is low, like 50 people make it each year.

Apply to other schools as well. You need to have a backup plan, especially if you're passionate about nursing. What courses did you do well in?
