Nursing programs? Direct entry or screened?

<p>As it does appear that your D might have at least some interest in attending UD, and now that you have provided some information on your D’s scholastic achievements, I now can provide you with some comments (from my perspective) about your D’s possible chances of getting into UD for Nursing. UD primarily looks at M/CR scores in evaluating students for admission. Your D’s combined score here of 1360 is therefore excellent. Your D’s GPA is very good as well. UD actually recalculates applicant GPAs looking only at Major Academic Courses (Math, Sciences, Social Studies, History, English, and Foreign Languages). So the course she got a C in would probably have no bearing in the admission decision. Taking large numbers of AP and honor classes are also in her favor. In fact IMHO she might even have a shot at being accepted to the Honors Program at UD. If this did occur (in general) students accepted to the Honors Program get higher merit financial aid awards. So it might be something she might want to give some consideration to. But you should be aware that UD does not have rolling admissions. All applicants receive admission decisions in early to mid March. If you have any specific questions about UD Nursing please feel free to PM me. Good luck to your D in her college quest.</p>
