CSUSM ABSN Spring 2012

U.S.A. California

Published

Has anyone applied for spring 2012 ABSN program at CSU San Marcos? I applied back in june and now that I have seen the average scores for the Fall 2011 program I am in a state of panic. Sure I meet the average for the other cohorts, but I am definately at the low end of the fall 2011.

I just wanted to know if anyone had applied for the spring 2012 ABSN program and how do you feel about your chances.

I know what you mean dzydjy. I think the cheapest would be to rent an apartment with a group of girls in the cohort. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone that applied :-( Either way, I am going to contact some of the people that are renting rooms in the area and go check it out. Hopefully I can find a good match. I'll let you know how it goes.

Hi all,

I'm super late to this thread but I've been admitted to the Spring 2012 Temecula cohort. I too (like amyca) was wondering how everyone's paying for the program. I'm freaking out over it since the FAQs say you shouldn't plan to work at all. :x I know there's fin aid, loans , etc.. but they mainly cover tuition not living expenses I think. Has anyone looked into any scholarships? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Congrats & good luck to all accepted or applying. :)

Hi All! I have been accepted to the Temecula campus for Spring 2012 and was wondering if anyone was interested in looking for places to live? I currently live in Pacific Beach- so if there's anyone in the SD area feel free to contact me!! I'm excited to get in, it's just that I wish they told me (us) a month earlier..

As far as paying for school. There is the medcap loan through wellsfargo (its a private loan, but better than nothing). There are litterely thousands of scholarships for healthcare and nursing. They are a pain, but necessary. The main things you will need is 2 letters of rec. (most professors are willing to help) and a auto biography for most of them. And there is always federal student loans. Good luck
