CSUSB Fall 2016

[RachMayJ]

I realize it may be early, but I wanted to start a thread for the CSUSB Fall 2016 nursing program hopefuls. I'm sure we will all have a lot of questions about application deadlines, letters of recommendation, points, TEAS, etc. It will be nice to have a community where we can ask each other questions and offer advice. Eventually we can share stats, and we may even end up in the same cohort!

How did you calculate your points and how much is each optional item worth?

How did you calculate your points and how much is each optional item worth?

I went to an informational session at the school. They didn't give the exact point ranking system, but they did say that ranking was based on pre-requisite gpa, TEAS score, county of residence, letters of recommendation, bilingual proficiency, and group pre-advising. I found some info online, but I'm not sure how accurate it is.

GPA - 30 points possible

3.00 - 3.05 = 11 points

3.06 - 3.10 = 12 points

etc...

Increase by 1 point every 0.05 until you reach the maximum (3.96 - 4.00 = 30 pts.)

TEAS test Version V - 15 points possible

70.0 - 71.9 =1 point

72.0 - 75.6 = 2 points

etc...

(Maximum points possible 98.0 -100 = 15 points)

Group Pre-Advising (Informational Session) - 1 point possible

Bilingual Proficiency - 1 point possible

Letters of Recommendation - 2 points possible

1. Character

2. Academic

County of Residence - 5 points possible

TOTAL POSSIBLE: 54 POINTS

Thank you for the info! Also do you know what counties they accept?

Thank you for the info! Also do you know what counties they accept?

5 points for San Bernardino county. You don't have to be from San Bernardino county to apply, but that is the only county they award points for.

Do you guys know if the points for GPA are based on the overall GPA or the science GPA?

[tay_adrii]

It's based on the pre req GPA, not overall.

[Genevera]

Sent my application in yesterday. Good luck everyone!

If I'm calculating correctly I have 49 points.
