  1. CSULA 2013

    Go online and look at the graduation rate for undergrads at CSULA. Only 9% of undergrads graduate in the planned 4 years and only 36% of ALL undergrads graduate at all. If you compare these rates to the other schools in the area they are MUCH lower...
  2. CSULA 2013

    FYI, I go to CSULA and I will warn you guys this is probably the worst nursing program in California. Unless it is your only choice of school or you are the world's most docile person I would not wish this school on my worst enemy. Get ready for ter...
  3. CSULA- ELMN 2012

    Hi Susan007, My feelings are mixed about this program. There are some great aspects--small close-knit cohort, some great clinical instructors, living in SoCal, finishing fast! There are also some very frustrating aspects--disorganization of CSULA f...
  4. CSULA- ELMN 2012

    Congrats to you all! I am a student from cohort 7, currently in the master's program, so please let me know if you have any questions about the program!
  5. USD MEPN Interview tips??

    Gigipgigip, I applied to USD last year (it was my 1st choice), was asked to interview, and then was waitlisted but did not get in. My stats were as follows: 3.2 undergrad gpa, pre-req gpa somewhere in the 3.4 range, GRE Math 680/English 490. Hope t...
  6. University of San Francisco CNL Entry Masters

    I'm on the waitlist and still haven't heard anything.
  7. CSULA ELMN Applicants 2010

    Hi guys, I am attending the ELMN program as well and also am a little anxious about the financial aid stuff. I know we were supposed to get a form signed by the nursing dept. to prove our classification as a graduate student, and to turn in a summer ...
  8. University of San Francisco CNL Entry Masters

    Right now I'm planning to attend CSULA. If I get in, it's going to be a really hard decision. CSULA is a nurse practitioner program and it's half the price. But I loooooove San Francisco! I'll let you know if I hear from them!
  9. University of San Francisco CNL Entry Masters

    You mean regarding the CNL role? I've spoken to a current student at USF about it, and with the faculty/other applicants at USD during my interview there. There is some information online: http://www.aacn.nche.edu/CNL/about.htm too. Like I said...
  10. University of San Francisco CNL Entry Masters

    Anyone else waitlisted at USF? I got an email saying they were going to have 10 more spots in the program open up, plus however many open up from the original set of acceptances. I'm thinking my chances are good but I wonder how many were waitliste...
  11. University of San Francisco CNL Entry Masters

    I think the CNL nurses are generally practicing as a regular staff nurse, although are able to move into leadership roles more easily and have an edge for hiring over ADN and BSN nurses. If you want to eventually be an NP, and already know what spec...
  12. I had a 3.16 in undergrad and higher in my prereqs (maybe 3.3-3.4), a 480 verbal, and 680 math on my GRE, and about 4 years of healthcare experience as a research coordinator and administrative assistant. I was accepted at Mass General Hospital IH...
  13. GRE Vocab

    I just remembered, after I took the GRE I read the book "And the Bank Played On" by Randy Shilts and this book was LOADED with GRE words; like, the EXACT words that I had memorized from the flashcards. Awesome book too! Just a suggestion, if you hav...
  14. GRE Vocab

    I think memorizing words and practicing the techniques taught by Kaplan or Princeton Review are the only ways to really prep for this section. I found a book that helped me learn words by using them in sentences, etc. rather than just memorizing the...
  15. University of San Francisco CNL Entry Masters

    I'm on the waitlist too! This is the 4th school that waitlisted me; ridiculous!! Anyone know how many people they accepted and for how many spots in the program??
