New SFSU/CSM ABSN Spring 2019

Published

Is anyone applying for this? It's the replacement for the SFSU/Sequoia program. At CSM instead of Canada. 1 year instead of 2. Must have a previous Bachelor's degree since it's an ABSN now. I don't see a thread for it yet...

Really want to apply, but afraid my science prereqs might be expired.

@ksampat awww thank you so much on the info regarding the student id. I was about to get anxious whether or not it would come in time. This is what happens when you procrastinate too much lol ??‍♀️.

When I logged into NursingCAS, I didn’t see a section to upload the score or pdf file for teas scores. Only instructs us to send the teas transcripts directly to SFSU. However I did see it in the CalState app without a star(**) next to it. So I’m planning to just update the score in the app later on when I received, just in case?

Hi Juls28,

My communication:

Me: Sorry, follow up question regarding the TEAS. On the Nursing CAS application, do we upload a copy of the TEAS in other? Or do we just submit it electronically via ATI? Just wanted to clarify the email in which you stated, "You will not need to input your TEAS score onto the CAL State application, but you do need to submit them along with your NursingCAS application."

SF State: You will submit it electronically through the ATI website.

Hi, I'm also applying for the summer cohort. I have a question about the TEAS. It requires score 78 or higher, is it the comprehensive score or individual score of each subject? I didn't do well on the English and Language Usage part, and I don't have enough time to retake it ;(

I think the comprehensive score, I didn’t see anything about individual scores. I think you should be fine! But maybe double check with SFSU, and retake it again if you have time next week?

So I submitted my calstate apply app on 2/19 and just got my sfsu ID number yesterday. I just wanted to keep everyone updated ?

I got mine this morning as well! ?

Juls28, when did you submit it?

I sent it in Wednesday at 1am and received the student Id this morning at 6am.

Do you guys mind if I asked for your stats? So I can know what my chances are!

I called into the office about 2 weeks ago, and a female said, from past years, this program is super competitive because they only have 60 seats for 800+ applicants. I double-checked with her that we were talking about the ABSN program, not the traditional BSN... Can anyone confirm if these numbers are accurate =(

Also, I thought the SFSU-CSM ABSN program was new, so I didn't understand where she got these numbers from, unless she was referring to the past SFSU-Sequoia program?

@JiggyRN, strange. When I emailed them 2 months ago about a requirement suddenly changing, they said "being that it is the first time the program is offered, all of the information listed is tentative until Feb 1st".
