Hello! I wanted to create a thread for those interested in/planning on applying to the CSUF ABSN Fall 2020 cohort. Applications open up in a couple of days! I just wanted to know how everyone is feeling about themselves and create a place where we ca...

Hey!! Thanks for being so helpful and resourceful during the application process! That definitely helped alleviate some of my stress! ? Good luck with finals!!

Hey all! I also received my letter of acceptance earlier tonight! Super excited to start this nursing journey and meet all of you! ?

Hi! I believe they will look into applicants on the alternative list sometime next week since they are waiting for conditional admits to accept/decline the offer. CONGRATS to your friend for being accepted into CSULA! I heard their program is amazing...

Hi! I took the course last semester for CSULA's ABSN program. I agree with you that it's a tough course with lots to digest. Although CSUF does not require you to take this course, many other nursing program do in case if you were planning to apply t...

@mushroomTinybear Hi! I believe that's the email for alternative list/waitlist applicants. Perhaps the email @Futurenurse246 received was for accepted applicants (or conditional applicants meaning they're accepted if they meet additional requirements...

Can those who were accepted for conditional admission reply with the deadlines/dates in which you have to make a decision by? Thank you!

CONGRATS to all that was offered conditional admission! I am placed on the alternative list, so hoping for some good news soon!

Other schools have also adopted the online interview in place of an in-person one. I'm not sure if this is due to recent public health concerns or if this is an opportunity to allow more applicants to interview (I think they had more interviewees thi...

You did your best and that's all that matters! I'm sure you did well! They did say April, but the decision came out fairly quickly after interviews for previous cohorts.

Before you check in, there is a list of FAQs. The first question stated that this assessment includes 4 questions. I suggest doing the practice questions before starting the real thing!

@britt4444 I completed mine a couple hours ago! It went by suuuuuuper quick. With all interviews I attend, I felt like I could've given better answers. Hopefully decisions come quickly after the 9th!

You can register and do the practice before Sunday! You can check-in/register, which is making a profile and attaching your essay, then have the option to do the practice questions. You can technically check-in today, start the practice questions, an...

@nelle Glad to see you back and active ? Good luck to everyone moving forward!

Hi all! I also received the interview invite email. Congrats to others that also received the email! Excited to be one step further along this process ? For the essay they mentioned, are we submitting the same exact one we had in the application? Per...

Hello! This is the link to the selection process from CSUF SON's website! http://nursing.fullerton.edu/programs/acceleratedbsn/selection.php

I believe you would find the average from your three GPAs. (3.1 + 4.0 + 3.94) / 3 = 3.68

Hi! You can calculate your points here: http://nursing.fullerton.edu/programs/acceleratedbsn/selection.php From previous years, I think they sent out interview invites to applicants that had 70 points or higher. However, every year is different so th...

Hi! Was your confirmation email from Admissions and Records or the School of Nursing?

@Futurenurse246 Glad to see someone else on this topic! (I see a lot of lurkers, but no posters haha) How are you calculating your score with the essay points?

@nelle Hey, Nelle! It's nearing the end of the application cycle and I was wondering how your application is coming along? ?

Hello! Sorry to be nosy, but I happened upon your comment as I was doing some research into past year's ABSN cohorts. You mentioned this was your second time applying and you received not only an interview, but admission into the program! Congrats!! ...

@nelle I'm hoping to get around 83-93 (need to double-check on my CNA licensure first). Does your 117 include the essay points?

@nelle Aw, what a bummer! They had checked my classes back in June so I thought it would be the same now. It states on their website that the Oral Communication should be a lower-division course, so my upper-div course might not count sadly. How man...

@nelle Sorry! I should've clarified that when I meant advisor I meant CSUF's open-enrollment advisor for the ABSN program! That advisor had helped me back in June with clarifying if other courses met the requirements, but when I emailed back recently...
