CSULB Fall 2015 Applicants-Basic BSN

[karliology]

I am extremely surprised there isn't a thread that exists for students applying to CSU LB for Fall 2015!!

Here are my stats, but enlighten me on one part, what does the general gpa consist of? I actually went to CSULB and met Monalisa, but she said the nursing program only looks at eight classes... Maybe I should call to reassure how they calculate the cummulative GPA, but my other scores are set.

Science GPA: 4.0: 4

TEAS Math: 100 : 2

TEAS Overall: (90.7x2)100:1.814

GE GPA: TBA

So far so good, but being that a 3.0 is the cut off gpa for general and science for the program I am giving myself a 3.0/2= 1.5 as a score and my points would be a 9.314 as a default. Hopefully it will be higher.

Does anyone know if we are allowed to take Pharmacology and Pathophysiology before we start the program?

Yes, you are allowed to take those courses if you can enroll in them.

I got into both of them over the summer at my local CC. I just wanted to be sure. I would hate to take them and find out that they're no good haha.

I'd double check that those courses are equivalent to the ones at LB just in case, I believe they have a list of different schools with the pharm and patho courses equivalent to those at LB on their nursing website.

Thank you for telling me. I just checked and they do transfer luckily enough. If anyone else is interested, this is the link to see if your pharm and patho courses transfer: http://web.csulb.edu/colleges/chhs/departments/nursing/docs/ApprovedPharmacologyandPathophysiologyCourses11-13.pdf

Congrats! Same here!! I'm so excited! I was number 10 on the wait list so hopefully there are many other happy people right now!

I was number 18 on the alternate list and I just got accepted! Congrats to everyone and hopefully more alternates get accepted as well. :)

[clarabunny]

I was alternate number 19 and I was accepted today as was my friend that was alternate 20!! Good luck to everyone!!

Since you are accepted, congratulation to you, Clarabunny, Would you mind if i ask your statistic? For example, your GPA, your TEAS test score, your Math score, ect...?Thank you so much.

[clarabunny]

Thank you so much, hoangnguyen! My stats were as follows :

97% TEAS math : 1.94

88% overall TEAS : 1.76

4.0 GE : 2.0

4.0 science with Anatomy in progress : 3.53

Overall : 9.2

I was very fortunate to have already been a student at CSULB which is why I was even given the position that I had on the alternate list. Good luck!

Thank you so much Clarabunny for sharing. You will be figuring out how challenge it is in nursing program soon. I think every alternative student got accepted, right? or any criteria to choose alternative one? Oh by the way, are you transfer student?

Congrats to my fellow alternates! Did anyone get (or know if we will get) a confirmation e-mail that our contract was received? Also, if you attend CSULB already, did your major change from pre-nursing to nursing on mycsulb?
