CSULB Spring 2012 BSN

Published

Hello everyone,

I'm applying for CSULB this Spring, transferring from Palomar College. Just finish all of the application today. Anyone else applies this Spring? Good luck to us all :yeah:

I agree jwong. Im a second degree transfer and I feel so blessed that I've been accepted into a BSN program. If it makes you feel better, if I get an offer from CSULB I will likely turn it down so there's one more spot for you guys! Lol

Hahaha!! That's good news for us ;)

Yes it's definitely crazy competitive. :-/. By the way am I the only one who was completely thrown by those questions we had to write about? Lol I am worried I sounded like a complete moron because I totally was not expecting questions like that!! I was like ummmmm??! Haha

Oh, no, believe me, you are not the only one that feels that way lol. Those questions were so random. I kept expecting to see a video and go off of that, because I thought I'd read that other people had a video? So when we got in there, and they were like "okay, write." I was like "huh??" lol, so yeah, I definitely wasn't prepared for that and my answer probably made me sound like an idiot too. I'm just hoping they needed that sample just to see how we write, and aren't judged as much on the content!

Hey guys, are interviews over? So it looks like we will be getting notifications 1st week of November at the earliest? DId they mention anything at all about potential budget cuts?

But you did get in? I applied for fall 2011 but my score was not as high bc I had a course in progress and it didn't help that there were major budget cuts rt after we all interviewed so they were limited on how many transfer students they could take..

Yeah, i was offered admission and I think it's only bc budget cuts weren't an issue during that time...

about how they limited transfers...that is just so unfortunate...especially after already going through the interview process.... Did the school let you know that they limited transfers for those reasons?

Yeah, they didn't tell us anything for like over a monnth though.. they initially said we would hear something 2-3 weeks after the interview but we didn't and when people would call they just kept saying the committee ran into some road blocks... Later on we found out that the school forced them to limit the number of transfers due to budget cuts and it took so long to let us know bc the nursing program was trying to appeal it bc they didnt think it was fair either... Then they started calling csulb students back to interview that didn't qualify for the interview initially.. I just hope that nothing like that happens this time around

Do you mind me asking what your score was last time you applied and got in?

That's just crazy...for that to happen really shows how bad public universities are being effected by the cuts...lets hope and pray that is doesnt happen this time
