Fresno State BSN entry

U.S.A. California

Published

Hi all,

I was interested in applying to the Fresno State BSN program for spring 2010 but am unsure if my GPA makes the cut. I don't want to blow the extra $50-60 on a school I wouldn't get in to anyway.

If anyone is willing to share their GPA/TEAS scores and whether they were admitted and for what term, I'd be greatly appreciative.

my stats fight now are about a 3.75-3.9 GPA in both prereqs and overall and an 80% on TEAS 1st time taken.

Snake your GPA is high. Can I ask why you are applying to 30 or so schools? I would not think with suck a high GPA you would need to apply to that many.

I have about a 3.3 and I plan to apply to all kinds of random schools but my GPA is significantly lower than yours.

Any tips in your research of places to apply to? I don't really care where I go as long as it is cheap and I can get in. I figure I can live anywhere for 12 to 18 months or so.

uhhh i can't think about anything BUT getting into the program. im applying to csu fullerton which has a very new program...do you think new programs are easier to get into? i know there's no logic to it....but just wondering, plus, i'm desperate. ahhh. i have a 3.7 overall and 3.56 pre reqs and a 92.4 on the TEAS....what you do think? do i have a chance? they said last year the average applicant (not accepted) was around a 3.2 with a 80 on the teas.....but then again that was the average applicant....any day now i'll hear back from them...

Does anyone know if CSUB takes spring applications? or is it just fall admission there nowadays?

Hello! I will be applying for Fresno State's nursing program in fall 2009 and hopeful to be accepted in spring 2010.

Of course, I'm sure all you know that they don't allow any repeats of classes anymore to get a better grade. But I checked csufresno.edu and the cut off to get into the program is a 3.65 gpa. I have a 4.0 right now w/ my pre-reqs and an overall gpa of 3.0; however i still need to take the teas test. After the summer, I still have physiology to get done with.

Good luck to everyone who applied :nurse:

I had a GPA of 3.67

i didn't get in during fall 2008 because the GPA cut off was 3.7

I was able to get in spring 2009 with my 3.67 gpa

Cant say a whole lot about the TEAS because it wasnt a requirement when i applied

You should definitely try to get it to fresno state. The instructors are awesome!!!

Hi, i got into Fresno for Fall 2009. How is the program generally? How many GE classes did you take in addition to your nursing classes?
