Yeah it did, because that email responded to me saying my hold was lifted. But I actually registered before I got the email because I didn't know they would notify me

@LavenderButterfly Thanks for the advice. I am going to pay mine right now since you are sorta scaring me about losing my spot but I guess its a good thing haha! :) When do you think those on the waitlist will find out if they are accepted or not? They will probably add another fee in my account if I'm in, and I was curious how long I'd have to wait to find out.

Honestly I'm not sure how long you'd have to wait, but I assume it'd be within the first week of class. Maybe even the 1st day or 2. I wouldn't sweat getting accepted too much. If they have a wait list them I'm sure they'll take you. When I took Patho there was NO waitlist! It's an online class so there's always room in my opinion LoL. And by it being a summer course and more accelerated I'm sure they'll make you aware right away to prevent you from falling behind too much. Only thing is you need to have the book and officially being registered would prevent you from wanting to purchase it. (don't blame you) Maybe you could email the teacher and ask when she expects to approve the wait list because you would like to get the book so you can be prepared.

I am enrolled for both Pharm and Patho.

Glad that many people are able to register. I paid money as soon as I registered, just in case.

If you decided not to go, you can get the refund.

Hey, I replied to your PM. :)

Hey everyone...congrats to you all who got accepted into CSULB. If you have any specific questions about the first semester, feel free to send me a private message. I can forward you the first few chapters you need to read, so you're ahead of the game, and I HIGHLY recommend you read before classes start...Our first day was "orientation," but was really orientation and two lectures the first few weeks are pretty stressful, so if your prepared before hand, it will be an easy transition to the wonderful world of nursing school. Unfortunately I'm going to be moving away from Long Beach for personal reasons, but really wish i could continue my nursing studies at CSULB.
Best of luck

I sent you a PM.

So, I'm a Kaiser patient and if anyone has noted in the New Student Orientation paperwork it states that Kaiser won't draw quantitative titers for Rubella and Hep B so they refer us to the Student Health Center. Well, I've gone back and forth already between the nursing department and student health center because I've tried scheduling an appointment to have these drawn there and they tell me I can't be seen until the Fall semester because I am a new student. Well, aren't the titers due by July?!?!? Is anybody else a Kaiser patient that is having trouble getting these titers done?? I don't even want to think about paying out of pocket to get these done elsewhere because lab tests are extremely expensive outside of your health insurance coverage!

Hi Ana,

I'm not sure whether it will help you, but I made an appointment of titer in our college's health center.

I will take MMR and varicella and cost $60: MMR ($45) and varicella ($15).

It may be expensive, though.

By the way, did anyone register CPR yet?

AnaLVN · May 9, 2012

That's ridiculous to pay that much money for a titer that should be covered by insurance. I guess I'll just keep searching but thanks for the information anyways.

I know!! But I have no choice.

Yeah, it should be covered by insurance, but my insurance didn't :cry:

cali_nature_girl · May 9, 2012

I am a Kaiser patient as well and my school (Saddleback College) won't even let me get the Rubella or Hep B surface Ab titer because I am not in the nursing program there... I hope we can find an alternative to Accesa because it is super expensive, $140!!! For two darn tests... Please post on here if you find any cheap alternatives! I am trying to find one but have had no success

I thought we were finding out about CPR certification at orientation? Or should we get it done sooner? I have finals next week so I've been kinda taking a break from all the prep for CSULB..

By the way, does anyone know if there is a deadline to accept the stafford loans that we were offered via CSULB financial aid?
