Thank you for responding!! Good luck to you. Hopefully more people respond so we can have an idea where we stand. ?

Hey guys! Here are my stats...

Cumulative GPA: 3.9

Pre-req GPA: 4.0

TEAS overall: 85.3

(Reading: 80.9, Math: 90.6, Science: 80.9, English: 95.8)

Work experience in a hospital as a CNA, over 100 hrs.

Work experience as a Respite Care worker for children with autism... don't know if this makes a difference in the application.

I know my TEAS score is not as competitive, but I'm hoping for the best ?

Good luck to all of you!

Your stats are pretty good! Good luck to you ?

Hey guys, I've been thinking about this lately...

On the application it says "The applicant may only submit one specific work or volunteer experience in which they have directly worked with patients with 100 or more hours of service within the last 2 years"

I'm sure some people have submitted both volunteer and health related work experiences, but if the application states "or" are they taking both into consideration? Do I make sense lol? ?

I'm just curious if having both will increase ones chances.

I was confused about this as well. According to ----------------- in the nursing department at CSULA, You’re supposed to submit as many experiences as you can, but they will only count one towards your application. Supposedly having more than one experience does not matter since they only count one, but I feel like they are only human and will probably notice you did more than one thing and take that into consideration. But who knows for sure.... LOL

I have a questions for everyone here lol. Did anybody submit a personal statement under “other” ? Just curious....

Woah... I didn't even know that was an option lol. For sure I did not.

Don’t worry there definitely wasn’t an option, but I added one in the “other” section. I basically just kissed some *** and said how amazing I am and why I want to be a nurse and why they should pick me and blah blah blah. Thought it wouldn’t hurt so why not lol.
