I'm in my second year of community college, completing the prerequisites needed to transfer to a CSU. My question is which CSU's nursing program do I have a chance of getting into? I've looked into almost all of them and they all require 3.0 GPA's which I can do by the fall but is it enough? (I really messed up my GPA my first year and I'm slowly but surely getting it higher than a 3.0 by the time I apply)
I applied 8 schools of CSUs, I am super worry about if I don't get in anywhere. There are some CSUs in the center California seems less competitive, well I mean compare others. Also most of them only look at nursing prerequisite GPA, not overall. You can look about Bakersfield, Fresno, stanlulus, SB, etc. I didn't apply 2019 to the most competitive ones, all are outside the city ones.

Focus on those core classes. GPA is the main thing that CSUs look at, along with TEAS scores. Depending on the school, some schools give a few points for having work/volunteer experience in a health care setting. Go on the schools' websites and see what they look at when they are calculating points.
