SAT: 1250 (taking it again in october and november hoping to improve)
GPA: 3.94
Class Rank:108
OOS

I also have taken many AP/Honor classes and continued to take them during senior year and I play baseball year round. I have many volunteer hours in the nursing field. I have very good AP exam scores and many extracurricular activities such as clubs and honor societies.

As a direct entry nursing program, The College of Nursing at University Park is very competitive, receiving about 1600 to 1800 applications for 150 or so spots. If the GPA is unweighted, you are in great shape, although your GPA is a tad low for University Park. If the 3.9 is weighted, hopefully you’ve performed well in a rigorous courseload with strong math and science. You may want to consider selecting summer as a potential start date. Also, if you need to pick a second campus, I personally would recommend Altoona as it’s only 40 min to the main campus so you can come up for football games easily.

My apologies, I meant to say your SAT is a tad low for university park. Overall I think you are in great shape.
