California State University, East Bay (CSUEB) - Spring 2025 BSN Program

Published

Hello everyone, I wanted to make a forum for us applying to CSUEB's Spring 2025 cohort for the BSN program to hopefully discuss the application and maybe some other questions we have. It might be helpful for us and future applicants as well!

I've talked to EB Nursing department's administrator a couple of times, she said they'll pick the top 120 students based on their grades and experiences, and then send 49 students offers according to their personal statements. I think EB's personal statement was difficult, what do you all think about the personal statement questions?

Good luck everyone! I hope we'll be classmate for Spring cohort! 

OMG. I don't think I did a good job on my personal statement because I wrote it after did my second attempt at TEAS. I put all my attention into studying for TEAS. I was rushing to submit my application that afternoon. I have a GPA of 4.0 on both GE and Prereqs, a TEAS score of 97.3%, and more than 1500 hours of work experience as an MA. Trilingual. I also got a recommendation from one of my surgeons. I hope to get in; if not, I don't know what else I can do to get into Nursing.

Here's a revised version of your text for clarity and flow:

 

I think you proved that you have excellent and fast learning abilities with your example of retaking the TEAS and the fact that you ended up with a extremely high score, so I don't think this is a bad idea. With such good grades and your other experiences, you should be fine!

No, because you said, "...they'll pick the top 120 students based on their grades and experiences, and then send 49 students offers according to their personal statements." So, I am worried that I don't have an excellent personal statement. I didn't put any effort into it  -_-//

I just got the accepted letter from EB! It says I need to accept the offer by 11/1, but I'm not sure I will because I'm waiting for an offer from another school (my top choice).  Good luck you all!
