CSULB Fall 2012 BSN

[Spiffyness]

Hi!

I think the CSULB School of nursing recently post new pool statistics including those who were chosen for Fall 2011.

http://www.csulb.edu/colleges/chhs/departments/nursing/docs/PoolStatsFall11.pdf

Knowing that the rating average is 8.91/10, that seems like a huge difference than the previous semesters!

Anyone else planning to apply to CSULB Fall 2012 BSN program?

They have the list from last semester posted on a window in a little courtyard area. I can't think of the room number even though I was just there. It is still the old list.

Wow, its almost 5. I guess we aren't getting them today!

I think it will be another week before we get news.

does anybody know how much time (in past semesters) they've given students to accept their admission? In other words, how long do the first alternates have to wait before being potentially offered admission?

@lucy

I read that people can drop out/alternates be called up to the first week of school.

I think they give a week maybe. I wish it was shorter lol

@clueless

I guess the person who is supposed to be sending all the letters out was on vacay is back tomorrow...so probably we hear next week or by the end of the week

They sure are taking their sweet time with this! haha... Well, at the interview, the proctor did say that it would take 3 to 6 weeks, and its already been 4, so maybe in a week or so we will hear from them, which sounds dreadful.

@Clueless: Regarding my friend who told me that emails were out, I go to CSU East Bay, so idk whether he meant our school or other schools, but either way, I didn't hear from any schools so I guess that the wait is still on.

UGH.... the wait is killing me!! I get so annoyed when I get emails that has NOTHING to do with nursing. And lately ive been getting so many, so overtime I think thats "its the one" when its some ad or something.

1st week of school?!

talk about a short notice!

But only a week to decide? that also seems a bit short, it doesn't really give you a chance to wait on decisions from other schools.

[CluelessNursingGuy]

Are there really people who drop out a week before the semester starts? Talk about last minute and a waste of a spot!

[DarkBluePhoenix]

yup

that is what the brochure says. maybe for people who dont get their pre nursing checklist done in time or maybe they are positive for something or maybe they have a family issue going on. it happens. alternates can get called up to the last day of the first week of school. talk about no time to get everything! i hope that since i know I am an alternate, that a lot of people choose to go somewhere else

I am glad they only give a week (maybe, i am not sure, i am sure beachsidenic knows)

people who are waiting for acceptances somewhere else can always 'accept CSULBs' decision and once their top choice accepts them somewhere else, they drop out of CSULB.

I just called to see when we would find out. She said she is meeting with the director in an hour. We will be notified by Mon.

[DarkBluePhoenix]

Wow...seriously. we are already ranked. Ahhh whateversThanks for taking one for the team and calling

I know I thought it would have been faster. No problem. I was just getting nervous because at my interview they said we would know by April 14th.
