CSULA Fall 2021

Published

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!

Hi! I am a pre-nursing student and I am planning to apply. I have a GPA of 3.7 , TEAS score of 67% and I am worried that I might not get into the program. For those admitted to the csula nursing program right now, what was your GPA and TEAS core when you applied? I'm thinking if I should apply to other nursing programs if my GPA and TEAS score is not competitive enough. 

Mine was 4.0 pre-req, 3.95 cumulative, 92% TEAS when I applied. You should still try tho. I know someone in my cohort who had a 3.75 when they applied 

Has anyone been able to start the NursingCAS app? I can’t find CSULA on there....

Hi guys, 

I'm applying with a 3.86 GPA, 87.3% TEAS, and over 200+ of volunteer hours. I'm also bilingual but I'm not sure if they take that into consideration. As for transcripts, we have to wait until Fall grades are posted right? I also had a question regarding AP scores, do I send that at the same time as my TEAS and my transcripts?

I recommend you attend the info session. There’s one on Dec 1st and 3rd. You can ask how to input Ap credit

Hi! Than you for responding. Where did you find information about the session? I can't seem to find it. I would really appreciate it if you would direct me to link ?

I didn't end up going today because they gave me the wrong PIN but I'll go to the Thursday one!

Here's the link for the 2021 NursingCAS application if anyone is struggling to find it. I couldn't find CSULA on it initially but I found out it was because I was on the old app.

I think you should include any amount of experience since it’s one of the three main things they look for. And I love the idea of this thread, I’m feeling nervous too and I think we can all share stats here to see where we stand! 

what are your stats?
