No ? I spoke with Yvone earlier today and they said notices go out early November.

Are there any applicants who are from outside of the Northridge/LA area that are willing to move if they get accepted?

I am concerned with how late in the year they will be sending out acceptances/rejections because moving is something I need to have planned out.

I live in downtown Long Beach- almost out of LA area and will have to relocate up there if accepted. No way I'm taking the 405 from LB to northridge daily.

I'm looking to relocate if accepted!

I just got off the phone with CSUN and the tentative notification date is now mid to late November... I’m pretty frustrated since they initially said end of October. This leaves so many students plans up in the air. I feel like it’s not ok to give such a short notice?????

Considering class starts in January, that seems like it’s a late acceptance notice. Luckily, I live in the area so I won’t have to relocate if accepted.

Ugh! Mid to late November??? I was hoping to hear by late October or early November! This waiting is giving me so much anxiety! Anyways good luck to everyone who applied.

Would anyone on this thread be able to share there application stats? I wanna see where I hold up?

I'm getting anxious waiting too. I'm wondering if they'll cancel the interview process since it'd be so late.

My evaluation score is 44. I hope that's good enough. What did you get?

How did you get an evaluation score?

Oops my mistake. Please disregard. There is no evaluation score for CSUN.

It is frustrating. CSUN is my priority school I applied to and will take if I'm even accepted. For the last cohort, they were told the same thing but they still found out on October 30th. I think I even saw someone on the waitlist got their acceptance by December! Yikes.

I am from San Diego so I'm concerned with having to relocate with less than 2 months to prepare. But I would make it work somehow.

@Deohen For my application stats, I am willing to share. I have a B.S. in Public Health from the university I graduated from. Since then, I got my CNA license and was fortunate to land a full-time job in a hospital where I have been getting my clinical experience. I have past experience working as a hospice volunteer for a senior care home, I totaled about 200 hours on that. I am also a part of a non-profit nursing organization in my city. I don't know what my GPA is because I sent grades that I retook for my A&P classes over the summer. I am hoping those get accounted for since I managed to get A's. But I would say my GPA is looking at the lower end because I do have one C and mostly A's and B's.
