nursing prerequisites

I am currently going to SFU, and planning to apply for BCIT nursing when I finish taking my prerequisites courses. I know that the prerequisites are Eng199W, BPK courses and one psych course at SFU.

However I got really bad grade ( like C) for my health science course last semester which lowers my gpa and cgpa a lot. This course is not a prerequisite course for nursing but since I am a health science major, don’t you think health science grade is also really important for my nursing application. I’ve heard it is really competitive.

So I am planning to retake health sci course. But retaking it does not change the final grade for the specific course it just changes my overall cgpa and gpa. Do you think it will help for me to retake for my application? I am just worried if my low cGPA would lead to rejection to nursing program.

Retaking course

I took hsci 130 in fall term 2025 and i am going to take hsci 130 this summer again because my grade was so low for that class. Would the grade for hsci 130 change if I get a higher grade this time?
