CSULB Fall 2015 Applicants-Basic BSN

Published

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.

On the certifiedbackground website, the order code CB76 is for "Background Check Only" and not "Background Check + Medical Document Manage". Is this code the right one? Or is there another code that we have to enter?

Glad so many alternates got in! I was number 28 on the list so I guess I'm now number 8, which is funny because that was my waitlist number for spring 2015 app. Did any alternates get an email for their orientation date yet? ----------------- sent it to me very last minute last semester and we had to print a lot of things so let's hope she sends it soon.

congrats to all of you that got accepted!

I have a question, does healthcare experience like CNA work count for points and accumulates to your total points in science pre reqs,

TEAS. and overall GPA??

Work/volunteer experience doesn't play a role in admission for CSULB. You can check the admissions criteria here: http://web.csulb.edu/colleges/chhs/departments/nursing/docs/NRSGBS01_BrochureSpring2016v1.pdf

No. For CSULB, extracurricular activities don't count. What matters are only your Prereq grades and TEAS.

Does anyone know when the alternates, who recently got an email from SON, need to accept or decline by? I'm still on the alternate list and just looking for a date that I may get that lucky email! :) Thank you ahead of time!

Lol this is such a late response.. but it seems that the date differs based on when the alternate was accepted. My friend was accepted off the alternate list a few days before I was and because of that, his deadline was sooner. It seems to be about a week from when the alternate is accepted.

Alternates, she just sent out an email saying that we need to attend the meeting on June 12th from 8:30-4:00 :)

If you don't mind sharing, what was your score? I'm applying for Spring 2016 and am very anxious :o

My score was 9.75.... I know someone else who got in who got at 9.2. About 20 people also got in off the waitlist.

Hope that helps.

Do we have a fall 2015 cohort facebook page??

Yes, search Nursing Class Fall 2015

Congratulation to all of you who got accepted. I am so anxious to apply this year. Can anyone please share a little bit about the communication exercise so that I can prepare myself for it. I'm very appreciated.
