What Accelerated BSN program would accept my low cgpa in USA??

Hi everyone! I recently graduated from the University of Toronto in Canada with a cgpa of 2.93 in a Honours Bachelor of Science program. I want to pursue an ACCELERATED BSN program and I have the prerequisites required for nursing but I want to know what schools will accept my low cgpa in USA. I am very flexible as to moving etc. and I do not mind the exact location of the school. Any school is fine at this point! Any help is appreciated, Thanks!
Some schools will look at the last 60 credits more closely and some will only look at nursing prerequisite grades. I would look at the school's website to see what admission requirements are, particularly since different schools have different prerequisites and you might not have them all completed. You can use those less common prerequisites to boost your GPA.

I believe this is the accelerated program in Oklahoma that accepts almost all candidates. http://www.okcu.edu/nursing/2bachmen.aspx. Except it is really expensive -- about $60,000 last time I looked. Otherwise, Oklahoma has a moderate climate and very reasonable cost of living so your other expenses would be low.

Check into Western Governers University. If you have your RN, that knocks all the pre-reqs out. But if you already have taken your pre-reqs somewhere else, it would probably be the same. It is not unfeasable to finish in 6 months (depending on how many pre-reqs you would have to do) for as cheap as I have found anywhere.
