Fall 2015 CSUEB

CSUEB is 2 years and 2 quarters if you go to Hayward.

Me too! Hi fellow classmate 2018 :) Theres a Facebook group for our class if you want to join.

What is the name?

for those that are admitted, did they already tell you about orientation?

Hi @rawritsyuri I'm in the same boat! I can't decide between the two... But I thought SFSU didn't have a preceptorship?

Also, do you know if they cut classes bc of their two year program?

@luckyduck'17 and @rawritsyuri

I was in the same boat a couple years back and chose CSUEB because SFSU was implementing a new curriculum and I heard that they had removed the preceptorship. This will now be the 3rd year of the curriculum, so the kinks are likely all worked out. And, instead of the traditional preceptorship, it sounds like they replaced it with another clinical rotation. A current SFSU student describes it here:

A major thing to keep in mind is where you ultimately want to work. Clinical rotations give you great networking opportunties and a chance to see where you would like to land after school. Choosing a nursing school with clinicals in places you would like to work is a great idea. @rawritsyuri, it sounds like you really like SFSU's clinical sites.

Also, I really like CSUEB, but my friends at SFSU learned to insert IVs a whole year before we did. I was jealous. We do have classes they don't have, like Legal Nursing and a Periop rotation. I would ask current students at SFSU what their experiences are. Good luck!

Thanks so much for the information!! And the post from the other blog was also very helpful!

I thought someone in this thread said that the Concord location graduates earlier. Is that true?

Are all of the books and supplies that we get during orientation going to cover the whole school year?

Do you know when orientation is? And do we have to purchase all our supplies that day?

Yes but I don't want to wait that long...too excited and nervous!

Concord graduates 1 quarter earlier than Hayward. During the 3rd year they take classes in the summer.

Here's a link to the roadmap
