CSULB BSN Fall 2017

Published

Hi guys!!

Anyone applying to the BSN program at CSULB for Fall 2017? The threads for this program over the past few years have been very active, but nothing for '17 yet! Would love to hear from other applicants and share experiences!

Yes the general pre-req GPA are the four classes: stats, composition, critical thinking, and oral comm. Those combined are out of a total of 2 points.

Here are my stats:

Science GPA: 4.00

General Ed GPA: 3.48

Teas Total: 90%

Teas Reading: 91%

If I'm doing the calculations correctly I believe that gives me 9.37 point score.

Science GPA: 4.00

Prereqs GPA: 4.00

Teas Score: 90%

Teas Reading: 89.4%

Total points: 9.59

I am not a 100% sure I got it right also.

I was reading the thread for Spring 2017 and the cut score went down a lot after they switched the Teas points from math to reading.

Yea I noticed that. I think someone said the cut off was 9.15 but when looking at the stats from CSULB they seem to get a lot more applicants for Fall and the stats are usually higher so I hope I make the cut off.

Yeah I believe it is only those certain classes used for the general ED GPA. I may call just to make sure though.

I'm at 9.39. I am still nervous since the Fall semester is much more competitive.

Hey guys! How did you guys figure out your points??

If I overkill this by explaining it too in-depth I apologize.

*To calculate your GPA a transcript will make it vastly easier, as the information is all there.

1) Pre-requisite Science GPA is 4 points (Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology & Chemistry)

Total Grade Points for 4 classes / Total Units Earned = Your GPA

So if you have a 3.94 GPA your points equal 3.94 out of 4.

2) Pre-requisite General GPA is 2 points (Oral Comm, Composition, Critical Thinking/Writing & Statistics)

Total Grade Points for 4 classes / Total Units Earned = Your GPA

Then you'll have to take your GPA for example a 3.94 and divide it by 2 = 1.97

1.97 out of 2 is your total points for the General portion.

3) TEAS Overall Score is 2 points

Take your grade for example an 85% overall and multiply your score by 2.

.85 x 2 = 1.7

1.7 out of 2 is your total points.

4) TEAS Individual Reading Score is 2 points (You calculate it the same way as #3)

Then you add all those scores up and that should give you your total points.

This excludes the communication exercise and military point.

If I didn't do this right please correct me, as that is how I believe it should be calculated.
