I'll be on a panel that I believe is intended to have an emphasis on men in nursing.

Sounds good to me Nancycc! I haven't purchased books yet.... Was going to wait till the bootcamp to do that. Both days work for me (as far as I can think of right now). I can't stay after 230 though because I have to come back here and pick up my kids.

BertG77.... Representing the murses! Nice!

Nancycc..... How much were the books altogether? Bookstore online is saying $829 for 1??? No way

Nancycc · Jan 15, 2015

We can meet on Monday if you'd like. I just remembered I have an appointment on Tuesday so I wouldnt be able to meet on Tuesday. I drop off my son at daycare at around 7:30 and have to be back by 3:30 to pick him up. It'll take me about 30 mins to get to Turlock so just pick a time and I'll be there. I purchased the books only because I was already there so I said what the heck ill just buy them now. I payed a little over $1000 because I had to purchase another book for another class. I had to take another class to make the 12 units but if you're only purchasing the nursing books it should be under $1000. Its not only one book though. Its a bundle. They referred to it as the first semester bundle. It includes the books we will need for all three nursing classes. So all you need to purchase is that bundle. Everything's included in there.

I've heard nothing but terrible things about CSU Stanislaus, particularly the ASBSN program. Attend at your own risk, and only if you can't get into another program. They are poorly ranked anyways. A waste

mishabc · Jul 26, 2015

Poorly ranked?? Guess you're not up to speed with this years statistics. CSU stanislaus was ranked #26 out of 442 western state nursing schools.... So :-P

I'm starting the second year of my BSN program at CSU Stan and can't say anything but wonderful things about the school of nursing, the faculty, staff, facilities, you name it. As an active participant in school activities I'm close with students in other cohorts ahead of me and they also have had a great experience.

Granted, I have no idea about the ASBSN program, but since you are making claims about the school as a whole I can speak on its behalf in that regard. Not sure where you got your information about their ranking but what do you consider 'poorly'? It's true they are outranked by all the SF schools you're inquiring about in your other posts ( the ones you seem to wish you could get into considering how much you dislike the one you're currently in) but they do not rank poorly in my opinion. Here are some rankings:

Our nclex pass rate has consistently been in the 90th percentile:

It's upsetting to have someone bash my school especially when the entire experience has so far been amazing, and the person making the bogus claims is out of touch with the situation.

princesama · Jul 28, 2015

@Jeneaux um, please do some research before you speak about Stanislaus nursing program being "poorly rank" because we have a 95-100% NCLEX pass rate.

Like what @mishabc said, you are not up to date with the current statistics so I suggest start looking it up, I mean its 2015. Thank you :)
