   Hi valjones! I got the Welcome Letter e-mail but I wasn't able to see any info on the service to use for the background check (unless I'm blind lol). Thanks for the info! Yeah, that's what I did too when the e-mails started flooding my inbox. Likewis...

   Hey everyone! A bunch of e-mails were sent by the Nursing Department. Most of the health reqs are easy to come by; any idea where, if anywhere specific, we're supposed to get our background checks and drug tests?

   cptlevi replied to cptlevi's topic in California

   Hmm, according to JM (the speaker...abbreviated to comply with forum rules ), they are expecting hundreds of applicants...which is about the same as last year's. I guess what makes it "longer" (or perhaps I should say "seemingly longer") is probably...

   Thanks for the update afractaluniverse :) Looks like there's no way to make it any earlier than that lol @ Hopefulpednurse Yeah, to think that students only have less than a month to set things straight before class starts (for the Summer cohort) in ...

   Hi happyperson2! Thanks for offering your help...I'm pretty sure we're at the edge of our seats until April comes And it's nice to hear/see that a current ABSN student has dropped by the "hopefuls" page to give some words of encouragement :)

   @ afractaluniverse Just e-mail her again about that course equivalency; I know it's Soc 1 that they normally require, but you may be able to substitute that anthropology course to fulfill that requirement. She's perhaps the only person now who can gi...

   @Hopefulpednurse Really? Oh well, they must be really busy there for us to have two different answers on the same question lol

   Hi Hopefulpednurse! I got that same e-mail too just now...looks like it's going to be a REALLY LONG [almost] two months of waiting. EDIT: By the way guys, I got a response from the Nursing dept regarding the Acceptance Letter from Admissions and Reco...

   Hi afractaluniverse! Thanks for dropping by this topic :) You know what, I also got that letter today, but I have no idea whether we should mail it to the Nursing dept or not. I don't remember ------------ saying anything about that when I went to th...

    cptlevi replied to cptlevi's topic in California

    I know that we have to be admitted to the University first and then be accepted into the Nursing dept (which is the reason why it shows "Provisionally Admitted" on the Portal, i.e. we will be admitted to the University pending acceptance into the pro...

    Hi nextway55! That's pretty much what we have posted in the portal...nothing so far from the Nursing dept.

    @AbigailRose Actually, CSUN is my only pick lol I wish I could've applied to other schools, but the ABSN is more "practical", and cost-effective, for me at least. That's what it says on my portal too...I've checked the CSUN's Nursing website and the...

    Hi AbigailRose! Yeah, that's pretty much what my CSUN portal shows too, and that they have received my application. My heart is literally pounding in my chest both because of anxiety and excitement :)

    According to the last informational session I attended, -------------(the speaker) said that the admissions committee will look at the applications around January of next year, so I guess we all just have to wait.

15. 5 year recency in CA and W's

    cptlevi replied to Jserrano2113's topic in California

    NickiLaughs is right...as long as your W's have been replaced by a letter grade just like in your case, you should be ok. Schools, even those for Nursing, generally look at the classes you took with the most recent grade reported, so instead of looki...
