<p>Hopefully this link can help answer some of your questions! [Admissions</a> Requirements | UCLA School of Nursing](<a href=“http://nursing.ucla.edu/body.cfm?id=49]Admissions”>http://nursing.ucla.edu/body.cfm?id=49)</p>
<p>I don’t have very much experience with the CCs around LA, and don’t really know whether the location would affect her acceptance. Generally speaking, somewhere she feels comfortable, can do well (in terms of grades/GPA) would be best, because for transfer applicants, there is a definite emphasis on how well you did in your previous post-secondary institution (whether that be a CC or another 4 year university). </p>
<p>As for the chem grade, as long as that class transfers to UCLA, she won’t be able to retake it for a higher grade because you can only retake classes in which you received a C- or below.</p>
<p>I would definitely recommend calling the School of Nursing and speaking with their counselors directly; it wouldn’t hurt, especially because their requirements might be different from regular transfers to UCLA (i.e. in the College of Letters and Science).</p>
<p>Edit: Also, as far as I know, UCLA either places very little or absolutely no weight on high school grades if you’re applying as a transfer. Might want to double check on that with the Nursing counselors, but I don’t think you even send in a transcript from HS.</p>
