CSUSM Accelerated Nursing program

[carly0406]

I am planning on applying for the CSUM Accelerated Nursing program. I graduated UC Irvine as a biological sciences major. I took classes to fulfill that bachelors degree. There are classes that are required for the nursing program. I checked assist.org, but I couldn't compare the units for both schools. How do I do if the classes I took at UCI is transferrable to CSUM? For example it requires an anatomy and physiology I lecture and lab, but at UCI anatomy and physiology were separate along with separate labs. Let me know please. Thank you!

Hi Carly,

I start the CSUSM ABSN program in June. My undergrad was from another state so I understand the confusion with transferring courses! I really recommend calling the extended learning office and asking for the contact of an advisor. Before I even put in an application, an advisor was helping me by email to see what courses fit where. I personally did not find the assist.org website helpful at all. For the A&P specifically, it just matters that you had two courses. Most California students seemed to have taken a separate Anatomy and Physiology class, where mine were mixed- so A&P1 then A&P2 and they accepted that without a problem.

If you search CSUSM ABSN on here, there is many past threads as well where other students have asked similar questions and got feedback. Hope this helps! Good luck!
