California State University San Marcos (CSUSM) ABSN Spring 2025

Published

Hello! I wanted to make a post for everyone applying to CSUSM for the ABSN Spring 2025 cohort. I submitted my application and just received my official evaluation worksheet. I have 45 points 🙂 this is my top choice school so I'm really excited and hoping to be admitted!

Thank you for making this thread - I was literally looking for one this morning!

Got my application confirmation email on 3/28 and submitted the application around mid-March. Received my evaluation sheet today and got 40 points!

Yay congratulations! I just got my official evaluation today too! I hope we both get in 🙂 I can't wait!! Are you applying to other schools too?

I only applied to CSU San Marcos and if I get in for Spring 2025, I might turn it down and be placed back in the pool for consideration for Fall 2025. I did look at other schools very briefly, and I might consider applying to them down the line, but hopefully I won't have to! What about you?

I have applied to CSUSM and National University. CSUSM is my first choice though!! I may look into other schools, but hoping I don't have to! That's funny you say that because I was also thinking about possibly turning down Spring 2025, if admitted, so I could be considered for Summer 2025 at the Temecula campus. I live in Temecula so it would be so much more convenient (the campus is literally walking distance), but honestly if I get admitted I think I will be so excited to start that I won't be able to wait haha 😂 

I looked at National University last year but their NCLEX pass rate has dropped quite steeply the past few years 😬 TBH I think the shorter commute for Temecula campus is worth it for you! I read somewhere on here that clinicals are randomized though so some people have clinicals far from where they live even if there are locations closer to them. I would be driving in from SD and I'm not particularly excited about the northbound commute but I'll take it for what it is 😂 

Hi I got 38 points on my eval, still no admission letter. Good luck to everyone trying to get a spot!

Hi there! Kind of late to the party?

Any update yet?

Login to my CSUSM account and found that my application status still shows 'evaluated'

No nothing for update from the school....

Hopefully soon! It's only been a month since the application closed so they're probably just finishing up the last of the evals for people who submitted closer to the deadline. I saw someone mention on a previous thread that they started rolling out admissions after the fall semester starts because they're busy getting new students situated. Fingers crossed!

Hey everyone!!

I know I started this thread... BUT I actually got an email after my points were evaluated and was accepted into the Summer 2024 cohort!! I am about 2 weeks away from finishing my 1st semester here at CSUSM School of Nursing and I absolutely LOVE it. The school and facility are amazing here! I hope you are all accepted and I hope to meet you when you start in the Spring :) Good luck to everyone!!

I meant "faculty" not facility haha

care explaining?! Like why jumped the gun?! 

Well they emailed me and asked if I wanted to start nursing school early (in the Summer) and I replied ABSOLUTELY! If given the opportunity why not start earlier?! Means I can get into my nursing career earlier!! I wanted to start as soon as possible, but Spring 2025 was the soonest I could apply for when I did 🙂
