Hey everyone,

I want to apply for csulb nursing program for spring 2015 cohort, is there anybody here who is applying for spring also? Do you think spring cohort is easier to get in?

hi guys,

I'm applying for Fall 2015 and was wondering, does everyone who's above a certain point cutoff have to do the interview or only the people who are on the fence. I ask because I live 7 hours away from Long Beach + I'm just curious. Also, what's the interview like? thanks for any help =]

Hi fatrabbit. Everyone (those above the cut score and potential alternates) are required to do the interview. If you're invited to interview, you will have the option to make an appointment for the interview in the hours available. Hope that info helps!

Hey fatrabbit,

People who have either gotten in or are alternates have to attend the interview. So to answer your question, yes people who are above a certain cutoff number attend, despite being on the fence or being in.

The interview is a group interview where they ask you to do several things: doing an activity with a partner (like instructing them to arrange objects in a certain order), watching a video and writing down answers pertaining to the video on a piece of paper, and answering questions verbally from a person interviewing your group. People will be watching you and assessing you through every step of the interview process.

Hope this helps. You can find more info about the interviews through previous posts if you look. The interviews at csulb are all pretty similar - they probably show different videos each semester to keep it fresh or something.

Good luck :)

This post does not relate to one I replied to, but I just wanted to ask, was the calculation for the general gpa based off 8 classes, the ge certification, or the gpa of all classes ever taken? I just want to know because some people call in GE other people call it general pre req. I have no idea. I applied for Fall 2015.

Hi, im applying for Fall 2015 and need some help filling out the application. I have AP credit for Stats from high school so what should i fill out for semester/yr, name of college etc.? Also, for Course Number/Name, for example, do I just enter "BIOL 208" for Anatomy, or is there another number i need to enter?

For ap classes you just write AP, and then under grade write ap as well. You will also have the ap board then send your score to Csulb. For the individual classes write the number at the college where you took it. They verify everything through transcripts.

Do I have to order an AP transcript and attach it to the application? The school already does have my AP scores so idk if it's necessary to spend more money on additional transcripts. I ordered the official transcript but the school wants it sealed so idk if it will display all my AP credits.

You don't have to send ap scores with the nursing app. As long as Csulb has them from your supplemental application.
