CSM - College of San Mateo - 2019 applicants

Published

Just wanted to see for who has applied to the CSM ADN program. I applied last year for the LVN to RN bridge, but was waitlisted, so I applied for it again this year. Crossing my fingers.

Thank you for this information! I was curious about the bridge program as well. Are the 40 BSN spots from those 50 ADN spots, or are they taken from elsewhere, such as the regular SFSU BSN applicants? When do you apply for the bridge program? I'm assuming if there's some kind of orientation that they could answer questions, but if you can answer them, I would greatly appreciate it!

Also moto.ri, I'm assuming we may know by next Friday or the one after. The e-mail confirming they received TEAS results said beginning of May! Last year, they found out on April 20th, so I'm curious as to why they're taking longer this year haha. But they found out a week after their deadline to submit their TEAs score, which for us is today!

Oh dear, when did you receive the email confirming they received your TEAS? I’m pretty worried now because I never received that email.

I like it! The workload is definitely going to get heavier the second year though. You need to have at least a 3.0 in anatomy, physio, micro, chem, oral & written communication, critical thinking, and stats. If you have a 3.0 or above, they also look into work/volunteer experience. http://collegeofsanmateo.edu/nursing/docs/ADNFlyer2018.pdf

Gotcha. Thank you so much for the information!

Oh no!! I submitted my score the Friday we all received our e-mail about being top 90, and the next Monday they e-mailed me confirming they received my results. Didn't you have to take the TEAS because you didn't have a score yet? Maybe that's why?

Hm, maybe it’s because I submitted my TEAS on the 20th. I received a confirmation from the TEAS website that they sent my results. I sent a follow-up email to CSM on Saturday asking them to confirm that they received my results but no one emailed me back.

Might just pay the extra $27 and resend results. So glad you commented about the confirmation email today because it’s the last day we can send our results in. Thank you!

If you got an e-mail from TEAS you're probably fine. They may just be swamped with last minute things to be doing. You could always call tomorrow and see if they're not answering your e-mails. If you have a confirmation from the TEAS website, I'm sure they won't disqualify you for anything. I'm sorry to worry you!! ?

Haha, all good -- I just want to make sure I have all my paperwork in order. I'd hate to not get in because of something like that! Thanks for letting me know when to expect to hear back from them.

Girl, same. I feel like getting into this cohort is gonna be way more competitive because of the SFSU bridge. ?

At least we know we're on the waitlist, worst case, I guess. But yeah, you're probably right. ?

Specializes in Primary Care.

So I just looked back on my emails from last year - I applied for the LVN to RN and got my waitlist email on 4/23/18. Hope it's soon. I'm not hopeful, but I'm still crossing my fingers!

Good luck to everyone who applied to the two year!
