I think 3.0 is the minimum...I know for most new grad programs they weigh your GPA pretty heavily.

I just got a call today saying I got in :) Super excited!

Hmm I had my Talentplus interview a while ago, I'll cross my fingers then!

Did you have an interview at UCLA?

At my school we have to go to the hospital the day before to pick our patient for the next day, then (depending on the professor) do a bunch of prep work (i.e. looking up all the patient's meds, the...

In my OB rotation there weren't too many circumcisions performed (it's usally done at the pediatrician's). Another classmate and I saw one, but I volunteered to go. They're not going to drag you into...

Glendale Adventist here in SoCal has one (the deadline was in Feb though, sorry!), it's at the end of summer for 4 weeks and is paid. That and UCLA are the only ones I know of down here.

Yeah the deadline was back in January.

Dumb stuff, nothing to do with nursing. My favs included, "Are you a habitual smiler? Are you addicted to a positive attitude?" I think they were just looking to make sure you're consistent.

Our instructor had us dump the kit's contents onto the sterile mat (just tip the kit over- you don't need to have sterile gloves on since the outside of the kit doesn't need to be sterile). After you...

Well out of more than 500 applicants, 60 got in for fall quarter this year and 40 got in for spring quarter. They take the top applicants, so that should give you some idea of the acceptance rates. I...

Hi, I'm starting nursing school in the fall, and recently got my huge laundry list of things I'll need to buy for the upcoming year (the tab is reaching $500, I'm not kidding). Aside from the...

Yay! I'm excited too (starting in less than a month). It IS way more expensive than I thought though- uniforms, badges, insurance, etc... Did anyone else have to buy the $350/year ATI testing...

Nope, just the regular non-licensure BSN program.

I actually just heard today from the nursing program at CSUSM- they notify you by phone. I'll be starting at CSULA in the fall though. Good luck!

Has anyone applied for/gotten the nursing scholarship/loan repayment program from the California OSHPD? Is anyone currently serving their 2 years in a "medically undeserved area"? I'm thinking of...

Thanks! Where did you do your clinicals?

I'm pretty sure I'll be going to CSULA-- my other option is CSU San Marcos. I got into the program at NYU, but they didn't offer me enough financial aid :(

I got into CSULA for Fall 08-- I didn't apply to CSULB, but from what I hear the program is among the top in CA. Personally I'd rather live in LB than east LA... Best of luck though!

Cal State Los Angeles BSN program this fall!

Just got accepted to CSULA's BSN program-- so excited! Is anyone currently going or planning to go there? I've never even been to the campus...east LA sounds terrific...lol.

Applied to CSULA, CSUSM (San Marcos), SDSU, and NYU. 3.6 GPA, got into CSULA and CSUSM (waitlisted NYU). Anyone else going to CSULA this fall??

I'm going to be applying to a bunch of BSN programs in CA, but need some extra help cash-wise (FAFSA didn't help much)...does anyone know of any good scholarships for nursing students?

What are the main differences in RNs with bachelor's and associate's degrees job/pay wise? I want to go the BSN route, but might have to go associate's and do a step up program when I can afford it....
