Can I retake a course i have received a c in?

<p>I am about to apply for the nursing program. All of my fellow students I have talked to all have straight A's!!! I'm not to shabby, but I do have two C's. I was wondering if there was anyway to retake them to bring them up. Even if it is just one of them. I am getting all kinds of different answers from all the office staff. One lady told me I can't since I took them after 1997, a new law has been passed. Another lady told me to just transfer out while still at my old school and then just show them my new grade, and the last lady told me to get a letter written by the manager of the Associates program with her okay in it and show it to my campus adviser and then I can just take them in my own school. So all of this back and fourth is driving me crazy! Can someone WHO REALLY KNOWS not just think they know help me out PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!</p>
