Hi Everyone!
This is a forum for CSULA's Accelerated BSN program starting June (Summer) 2021.
Applications just opened & are due in January. I was surprised that there wasn't a forum already created so thought I’d create one so we can keep each other updated ?

Me too, especially considering the application is due pretty soon! How are you feeling about everything?

It must feel good to have it all done! I'm waiting on my fall grades to be posted before I mail the app. I wasn't able to get any volunteer experience thanks to covid so I'm hoping that my TEAS and GPA will make up for it. Fingers crossed! And yes, I'm also applying to CSULB, CSUF, and CSUSM.

I'm lurking in here LOL!
Did you have the people who wrote you letters of recommendation mail them straight to CSULA, or did you have them send them to you and mail one big application packet yourself?

Waiting on my fall grades too! Finals this week. I still have to take my TEAS on the16th, super nervous about it.

Good luck on the TEAS!! For letters of recommendation, as far as I know we are supposed to include them in the packet that we send ourselves. Seemed a little weird to me but oh well haha
Good luck as well ? For LORs, I also had them send it to me in an envelope and then included them in my big application packet.
