   For those that got accepted and accepted admission, what are all of you going to do for housing? I'm not exactly local to the area and would need a place to rent along with a roommate/roommates? Or are most of you guys local and/or commuting?

    Hi there! I also applied to Fresno States Nursing for this Fall, it's nice to see a thread started. From what I've seen and read, I agree that it looks as if Fresno mostly looks at the GPA and doesn't put much stock into a student's teas score. Unlik...

    They do, it's 200. However, nursing students have an eligible exemption, at least until you know your acceptance status. It's a selectable option on the exemptions list when you go to submit your intent.
