   @futurerninthemakin I know they have some campus housing but I think mostly undergrad students fill those up. I am moving from the LA area so going to look at all options like Craigslist etc. It seems pretty easy. We could also start a facebook group...

   inkabruce replied to inkabruce's topic in School Programs

   @kalduenda hey, yea this all can be pretty nerve wrecking. So I applied for fall originally and was accepted but deferred to spring for a couple reasons. With fall acceptances the student center changed first then the day after I got the email. It so...

   @SD123CA It all depends on the applicant pool, but in the info session she made it sound like they only expect it to get more competitive for spring. The evaluation sheets should be out by the end of August, hopefully!

   @eastlakenurse Congrats on the TEAS! I think as long as you have the right courses completed during undergrad, you will be good. It looks like they only absolutely need those AP scores if there isn't sufficient undergrad courses to meet the requireme...

   @IE_Tacoma94 Nice! It took them a solid 4 weeks for me to get my evaluation, after the window closed! I had submitted my application like a month prior to the deadline as well. So unless you get lucky, expect to wait! And I have already been to an in...

   @mleiaa I think it all depends person to person, but unless you're a really good test taker or are still in class mode/just finishing up, I would spend a couple months preparing. Personally, my undergrad gpa is what was holding me back with a lot of ...

    @j24og You have to keep in mind that this is nursing, not medical school. If it was medical school then yea, being at the best hospitals, specifically those that are teaching institutions would be most important. For nursing, it just matters that you...

    @jchin1121 hey, are you planning to stay in socal? I am in a similar situation, I was an '09 grad from U of Illinois and studied Econ with a poor GPA, about a 2.7. I moved to LA after deciding to make a career change at 27 and figured why not use it ...

    Hey all, just wondering who is applying to the Spring cohort at CSUSM. I actually applied to Fall and was accepted but had to defer to get better situated for the move. It worked out too because this is the cohort that is at the main campus, which I ...

14. CSULA BSN FALL 2019

    inkabruce replied to za08's topic in School Programs

    Hi, is this meant to be for the ABSN program? Because it technically starts in the summer. I applied for the 2018 cycle but did not get in and am going to reapply. I realized how competitive it is during the application process and that I probably n...

    inkabruce replied to justin123560's topic in School Programs

    I am ruling out APU and Western now since I decided the route I want to take is best suited with becoming an adult-gerontology acute care NP, which neither of them offer. So I will reapply to UCLA, CSULA, and UC Irvine; then CSU San Marcos will be th...
