CSULB Fall 2012 BSN

Published

Hi!

I think the CSULB School of nursing recently post new pool statistics including those who were chosen for Fall 2011.

Knowing that the rating average is 8.91/10, that seems like a huge difference than the previous semesters! :eek:

Anyone else planning to apply to CSULB Fall 2012 BSN program?

Alright guys, well I messed up a little. Purchased today without realizing that the "deadline" was on the 16th. (Could only start coverage on July 19th). Thoughts?

I really wouldn't worry about it. They probably set these deadlines so that we don't wait until the last minute. Just be sure to complete your Magnus by the 30th.

Honestly, the only reason why they said July 16 is to make it easier for them to keep tract of everything. I personally wouldn't have minded waiting until the end of August to start my . Why waste a month and a half of coverage when we haven't even started school yet? You should be fine. Contact CM to make sure though.

For the Physical Exam form, we can put "In Progress" for the titers and vaccinations that we have not received yet since those will be checked anyway right? I am cutting it close to the deadline and my physician takes awhile to get papers done, so I was going to request for him/her to write "In Progress" for all of the titers and vaccinations since I will be getting those results and vaccinations later. Also, do we have to have our MagnusHealth Portal completed by 11:59 PM on July 29 and have all of it uploaded BY July 30, or can we still upload things that day and have it all done by 11:59 PM July 30? Any comments would be helpful :)

The deadline was not July 16th. You could have it start August if you want. They only RECOMMENDED starting July 16th because that is when our Magnus account will be checked again next year, so it'd just be easier for the renewal date to be July 16th. You don't start clinicals until August so it's impossible that the deadline be July 16th.

Spiff,

"In progress" should be fine, but what I recommend is to put the approximate date of when it will be completed. I spoke to CM about my hep B #3 (will do in Dec) and the flu shot (in Sept.) She told me to upload missing doc forms with the approx. dates of completion. As far as uploading, I would assume that you can upload on the 30th.

If anyone still needs CPR training send me a PM for info. I found a course for $25! They are holding a course tomorrow, Tuesday 7/24 @7:00pm and Thursday 7/26 @7:30pm.

I wish I knew this earlier and started my coverage late August. Such a waste of a month plus.

I'm not done with my tracker and they already started approving sections. So much for double-checking everything...

Also it said the deadline is before July 30 so I'm thinking we need everything uploaded before that date.

If I don't get my results from my titers back tomorrow then July 30th would be when I review those and get all the immunizations I need since CSULB only gives immunization shots on Mondays and Tuesdays. I would have so many missing document forms prior to July 30 but on that exact day I would have everything done. A lot of mine are still pending school approval. I think I will just ask CM when the exact time everything is due to save myself a lot of trouble.

@Victor Thanks, I was thinking how silly it would be to fill out all those missing document forms saying "I will have it uploaded by the end of today" As for the Flu shot, I already uploaded a missing document form and they approved it.

It is silly to have us pay just for an extra month. They should have told us to make it start later. I had mine start August 15 but it says "Approved until July 16, 2013" on my health tracker. Guess it doesn't even matter what my actual document says since I will have to renew it before July 16th next year for the schools approval.
