Sequoia/San Francisco State Fall 2013 BSN applicants

[bayareanurse05]

Hello!

I wanted to start a forum for applicants that are applying specifically to the Sequoia/SFSU BSN program for Fall 2013. I wanted to invite students who are currently applying, already in the program,or have graduated from the Sequoia program to offer advice to all of us hopefuls out there.

This is my second year applying to the Sequoia program. Last year I got into the program :), but I did not realize I did not have a random 3 unit transcript in on time, so the head of the program told me I couldn't be accepted in...bummer . I have applied again for the Fall 2013 program and can't wait to find out the results in March. Looking forward to hearing from everyone! Good luck!

Hi Sudhasaravan & Melygina,

If you want you can send me a PM and I will reply back to you with a link to the page. I would PM you myself, but since I'm a new member to allnurses I don't have access to the private message function right now.

The only reason (that I can think of) for not finding the Cohort 10 group page is that you're searching for the group using a search engine like Google, since you don't have a Facebook account. Sadly one of the drawbacks with a Facebook group is that everyone must have their own Facebook account to gain access to a Facebook group page. So if this is the case and you want to join, just set-up a basic Facebook account and then search for the group again within Facebook and you should find it.

I hope this helps.

For those of you who are having trouble finding our Facebook group I have listed some of the information that has been posted on our group page.

- The SFSU/Sequoia Nursing Students' Association website. http://nsasequoia.com

- A video for SFSU School of Nursing Orientation 2011: Student Presentation. SFSU School of Nursing Orientation 2011: Student Presentation on Vimeo

- A video interview with a former graduate of the SFSU/Sequoia program.

- Another thread on allnurses where a current student talks about what we can expect in the SFSU/Sequoia program. https://allnurses.com/california-state-nursing/sfsu-fall-2012-a-639941-page13.html

- For those of you who want a head start, College of San Mateo has a two-day Medical Dosage Calculation class this summer. It’s called NURS 610 and is on 6/17-6/18 from 8am to 4pm (CRN: 52575).

- A link to this year’s SFSU School of Nursing Handbook. If you look on page 13 of the handbook it lists the new 4-semester curriculum that will start this fall. https://sites7.sfsu.edu/sites/sites7.sfsu.edu.nursing/files/assets/SON_Handbook_2013.pdf

Enjoy!

I too would love to join the facebook page- I did search all different ways and cannot locate the group/page. Since I haven't been a member of this site for very long, I cannot PM anyone. I would love it if someone could leave the link/ message me with the link. It would be great to meet people prior to the start date. Also, I am thinking about moving closer to Sequoia/Canada (I am in Burlingame now)

Thanks,

Jessica

Hi Jessica,

I did leave a link to the FB page in one of my previous posts, but it was removed since posting links to other social networks violates the terms of use for allnurses.com.

So, I will try and have someone PM you the link. :)

I just sent the facebook link to sackmanr, sudhasaravan and meekmeek62.

Please check your private messages. Thanks

Just checked out the link to the Nursing handbook and noticed that pharmacology and patho phys. are missing- anyone else notice this too?

[meekmeek62]

Got the link in my PM- Thank you for sending!!

[micheance]

I noticed the same thing. I'm assuming our curriculum plan will be a little different than what they have posted?

Did anyone get waitlisted? Kind of odd how there aren't any waitlist numbers for the Seq/BSN applicants...anyhoo crossing my fingers!

[Kris10p]

Can someone please send me a pm of the fb link too can't seem to find the group when I search! Thanks in advance

Hi everyone,

I'm new to the site, and have just been accepted into the Sequoia Nursing program for the the Fall of 2013. I am eager and anxious about the transition and would love to be a part of the cohort group on here as well as on facebook. I look forward to meeting most of you, and also have many questions for those who are familiar with the program. I sent a friend request on facebook for the cohort 10 group (under ---------------------) and hope to hear back ya"ll, so that I too can start to prepare for this exciting new chapter :)
