CSULA Fall 2021

[prospectivecanursing]

Hi all! 
I just wanted to create this forum for students who are applying to CSULA Fall 2021 for the BSN Nursing track in case we had questions for each other, wanted to share thoughts, stats and to support each other through this journey. 

I was wondering if anyone has applied and knew if CSULA requires verification for volunteer hours in their NursingCAS application portion? Also, will they accept any amount of volunteer hours under 50? I know you can add a document. Thank you!

Are decisions emailed?

I believe so if not check your portal and there usually something in the communication center

I don't think they sent it out yet. Also, I saw on the SDSU forum that you got in! Congrats! ?

Last year, decisions came out March 12th. The year before that decisions come out around March 15th. — I’m sure the decisions will come out around this time. Good luck to you all!

@cremebrule If you had to choose between SDSU and CSULA, which one would you choose?

You’re welcome!! Just didn’t want you guys to be anxiously waiting when the decisions won’t be emailed for another 1-2 weeks anyways! Might as well relax until then ?

First semester was not bad at all, but this semester is a whole other ball game. Let’s just say I’m STRESSED bc of Med Surg and Pharmacology ?. But that’s nursing school for ya! Nobody is failing and that is all that matters, right? LOL. 
I hope you all get into your dream schools!

Yes, definitely appeal or at least email. I simply emailed, and It worked for me. I had crazy stats tho so I thought it was a mistake ?. Never hurts to try either way. Hopefully you just get in and you don’t even need to worry about that LOL

Only thing that brings down my app is my TEAS at the 74.7 but someone said someone with a 70 got into the program so that gives somewhat hope LOL. My GPA is high and got volunteer hours so hopefully that tilts it’s to me

Does your guy’s portal say in the admission application complete (green circle) or incomplete (yellow triangle)? mine says  incomplete but has nothing on the to-do list.

I've tried several times to check but I can't seem to find the admission status on the GET portal LOL

I've looked under all the tabs so can anyone tell me where to find it ?

I've attached a screenshot of what I see, someone please help :,)
