1. CSUSM- California States San Marcos for ABSN

   polyacik replied to maddyg7's topic in School, College Programs

   Yeah, you'll be okay. A lot of people are still working and managing just fine. I'm not working but do have 2 toddlers and live 1.5 hours away from campus and for me that's just about the limit lol....

2. CSUSM- California States San Marcos for ABSN

   polyacik replied to maddyg7's topic in School, College Programs

   I'm in my second semester. You do have to take the Anthro and Ethics courses at CSUSM, but they are considering changing this so it may or may not be the same for future cohorts. The ABSN site has the...

3. Nurse Candidate Program and DUINS (Navy)

   polyacik replied to Derick RN's topic in Government, Military

   Regarding DUINS, yes you can apply for duins about a year before the end of each tour, beginning with your first tour (which is two years usually). If you’re a hotshot you could go straight from...

   polyacik replied to polyacik's topic in School, College Programs

   @hopefulkim99 I believe you can just take the nutrition class (which I did) elsewhere. The other two, I don't think

6. California State University San Marcos ABSN, Summer 2019 (CSUSM)

   polyacik replied to polyacik's topic in School, College Programs

   Hi all, looks like someone dropped and I got offered a spot in the summer cohort. Does anyone know what the format of classes is for first term? I already took nutrition so just need the other two....

7. CSUSM ABSN Fall 2019

   polyacik replied to futurernmelne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   @Lynngu no, they won’t consider you until your official transcripts are in for all prerequisites, unfortunately. But if you have taken your TEAS, I would say apply now so that they can give you your...

8. CSUSM ABSN Fall 2019

   polyacik replied to futurernmelne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Hi all, Checked in with my counselor today regarding the admissions timeline (I am applying for some stuff and really want to have an official acceptance letter earlier rather than later) and was told...

9. CSUSM ABSN Fall 2019

   polyacik replied to futurernmelne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   @coco1320 I was really surprised, it took no time at all. Submitted my application on the 6th but still had one more transcript missing. Transcript arrived I think on the 12th or so at which point my...

10. California State University San Marcos ABSN, Summer 2019 (CSUSM)

    polyacik replied to polyacik's topic in School, College Programs

    @aprilkxo yep but if you apply by the priority deadline and have a certain amount of points (maybe around 30+) you pretty much know you’ll get in. I have a decent amount of points and have no doubt...

11. California State University San Marcos ABSN, Summer 2019 (CSUSM)

    polyacik replied to polyacik's topic in School, College Programs

    You have to take the TEAS to be able to submit the application, recommend to take it as soon as you feel ready. As for any other tips, since it's entirely points based there's not too much strategy...

12. CSUSM ABSN Fall 2019

    polyacik replied to futurernmelne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Also keep in mind if you have very good points you can still be admitted right up to the start of term. As people change their minds or withdraw for various reasons they’ll fill their spots with...

13. CSUSM ABSN Fall 2019

    polyacik replied to futurernmelne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes you can. The only thing you must have is your TEAS score or else you won’t be able to submit the application officially. They’ll then be able to complete a points evaluation for you but they...

14. CSUSM ABSN Fall 2019

    polyacik replied to futurernmelne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    @WAboundSNOk, thanks! That’s helpful. I wonder why they won’t take geographical preference into account at all for clinical placements. Seem lime if someone from SD county was placed closer to...

    polyacik replied to futurernmelne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Can you elaborate a bit on clinical placements for Temecula vs San Marcos? I really really just want to get started with school but we will be living around San Diego as that’s where my husband’s...
