I thought I'd make this thread for the new application group... even though it's a bit late since we have to all apply soon!
Anyway! I want to apply for the Fall 2012 term but I had some questions. I am an current CSULA student that transferred to CSULA in Fall 2010. I'm a Psychology major but am applying for Fall 2012 Nursing. I haven't taken my TEAS yet, but I'll be taking that on Friday (!!), so I'm very nervous about that.
That said, this is my first question:
I've been getting mixed info from different people. When I visited the Academic Advising Office last Spring (2011), the adviser told me that as long as I did not graduate from CSULA BEFORE I graduated, I could apply to the SON as a BSN applicant. I called SON to see if I could even apply for the ELM program and they told me that as far as they knew, I could not because I did not have my Bachelor's Degree yet.
So right now, I have approximately 2 quarters left in order to finish my Psychology major, approximately 6~8 classes. Ideally, I could finish by Spring 2012, but depending on my other workloads, I could push it back to Fall 2012. The problem is that I'm not allowed to graduate if I want to go into the basic program so I can't apply for graduation just yet. But IF I don't get into the BSN program, then I have to wait another two quarters after May or June or whenever they send out acceptances in order to officially graduate.
So I went to go and talk to my adviser about graduation and if I should even bother applying for Spring 2012 graduation and she tells me that no, I'm not allowed to apply for a BSN but I can go for the ELM program.
Does anyone know which is true? The CSULA advisers tell me that I can't apply for the Basic program but I can apply for ELM while the SON says that I can't apply for ELM because I don't have my Bachelor's degree yet and I should apply for the BSN program. Other graduate schools like APU and UCLA have also told me the same thing - without a Bachelor's, I cannot get apply for the ELM program at their school.
Yes I got into CSULB! Good luck to everyone who applied to CSULA! I also got into SFSU but for Spring 2013 which I will deny. Still waiting for SDSU, CSUS, and CSUSB (which i'm whatever about now)
If you know you're going to CSULB - do you think you could let SoN know that you are not attending to make room for students who are on the waiting list? Thanks!
So yea, those of you who know for sure they aren't going to attend CSU-LA this fall should definitely notify SoN right away that they aren't attending so that other people have a chance to get in from the waiting-list. Help your class out!
OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! I GOT IN TOO!!!!!
I checked here and immediately checked my email and my heart broke because I didn't get anything, but it was in my junk mail. I'm in shock, I am SO EXCITED!!!!!
Wow I just sprinted to my computer to come on here! I also got my acceptance e-mail!!!! Ahhhh my heart is pounding!- not sure if it's because I just ran full speed or because I am just overwhelmed with joy!
I got mine through my yahoo account. I guess it is whatever e-mail you put on your application. But we need to make our decision by 1:00 PM May 1st, or we will lose our spots and someone on the waitlist will take it. That's only like 5 1/2 days!!!
