Direct Entry MSN CSUF

[tm093726]

Hello all,

Has anybody heard any news about the new direct-entry MSN program at CSUF? I went to the campus today and picked up an application and while I was there asked asked about the overall interest in the program. I was told it seems like its going to be a very competative group of people. Anyone here applying? We can all go through this together :monkeydance:

That's what I would assume unless the other applicants made it up..lol Elonda made it real clear that she had not sent anything out and that all emails and letters would be mailed and sent on April 30th and no time sooner...

Oh, and another question to the applicants--have any of you received your financial aid award summary?? I got one yesterday but I was told that you do not get one unless you are admitted...I'm not sure if that's true or not...

nskoog -

you received your financial aid summary for CSUF specifically? i was thinking about financial aid, i haven't applied (i'm planning to if i'm accepted) if i haven't applied for aid yet is it to late if i'm accepted?

[nskoog]

Yeah, through my titan online..CSUF told me how much they were going to give me for the '07-'08 school year. You can still apply for financial aid. I would do it quickly because the funds available now are limited because those that applied earliest and before the deadline get the bulk of the financial aid. I applied in February...

I got accepted!!! I was wondering if anybody is planning to attend??? Would love to hear from you.

I'm not sure what happened to the previous posts we all had earlier today, but now they're gone...wierd... Neway--I also got accepted and am leaning towards CSUF.

dmat317-we should start a new forum for the acceptances so we can all chat!

Anyone else concerned about this application process? I'm still waiting on an acceptance/rejection letter and am beginning to worry.

Did you checkyour email? It's supposed to be sent to you via email...check what email you but down on your application. It was supposed to have been sent out on the 30th, otherwise you should call Elonda! You're supposed to respond with your acceptance by the 18th of may I believe. Goodluck!

[sawasa]

It was hiding in my spam folder amongst hundreds of bogus emails! Close call, but I got in! I was beginning to write if off given all of the competition (350+ applicants!) Whew!

[KungfooNurse]

hahahaha omg! duh! I shoulda thought of that! CONGRATULATIONS!!! YAAAY!!!! I got in tooo!!! I think I'm gonna work all summer to save up for the program...I'm so excited, aren't you?!!! SAAAWEEEEET! Yeah my bachelor's cum was low, but I kicked butt in the end and in my pre-reqs... I'm actually finishing up micro and phys right now, currently have an A in both classes and my finals are on the 15th and 16th of May. Has anyone else heard anything of what to expect?

Congrats to the other two who got in, dmat and ongok? yay! anyone else???

[sawasa]

Do any of you in the Fullerton prerequisite program have any idea how many students from your class were accepted? Just wondering how many outside applicants like myself were admitted.

[nskoog]

I know there's at least three of us that I know of, myself and two others in my previous classes...I haven't heard from anyone else in my current class getting in. It's hard because I feel so bad and do not want to show that I am excited around them because they are all really bummed..(I'm taking Physio right now)

Can't wait for that package though:rolleyes: I hope they send it out soon. I can't wait to see if any of the other applicants I interviewed with got in..They all were from other schools.

Congrats to all of you accepted, hopefully it will be a great experience for the first cohort. As I'm looking into applying for Fall 2008, I hope you'll be around to answer questions for all of us potential 08'ers!
