To be honest, if you have a BSN from any CSU it looks good because I believe everyone understands that they are all difficult to get into. Unlike west coast university where literally everyone gets...
Cal State LA’s nursing program only accepts 70 students per year in the fall, when normally 1500 people apply (maybe it will be less for this cohort with covid and whatnot). If you do the math that...
No, they don’t email you if you are an alternate. They tell you you’ve been admitted later on once enough people deny their spot. I believe we received emails March 12th 2020.
Like I mentioned above, I did not appeal so I don’t really know. I just know it gave me the option to do it. I just emailed (MODERATOR EDIT OF INITIALS) my stats and asked why I was not admitted and...
So I didn’t actually appeal. I literally just emailed ------------------- and was like what’s the deal? Because I had insane stats so I really didn’t understand why I wasn’t accepted. I just...
Yes there is a waitlist. Unlike Long Beach, they don’t even tell you that you are on the waitlist which is super annoying! They basically wait until enough people decline before telling you. I also...
You know what I’m not sure about that guy... he never specified to me. He just said GPA so maybe he meant cumulative? Not sure tho. My friends got 4.0’s in both, I got a 4.0 in GE’s but 3.95 in...
That’s a good point. Maybe with covid less people will apply. Last year 1500 people applied and 70 were selected so it was crazy competition! Now we are down to 68 tho (not sure what happened to the...
Hi! So this totally depends on the competition between you and the rest of the people applying for 2021. That’s why I think it’s important for all of you to share your stats with each other so you...
Clinical: You mainly shadow a working nurse all day. My teacher is so chill, but I know some of the teachers are not. Work load: 5 care plans (some classes did more depending on the teacher), 3-4 easy...
Also, I don’t know about the average GPA, but mine and many of the people I know in the program had 4.0’s. The lowest GPA I know of who is in the program was a 3.75, but that is relatively rare...
Yes I did have to choose a major. I believe it is the one you stated because “basic” means someone who doesn’t have an ADN yet, and (Pre major) means someone who doesn’t have a degree yet (in...
Yeah basically what had happened was, one of the hospitals decided last minute that they didn’t wanna take students anymore (messed up). So those 10 people who were assigned to that hospital ended...
@Artemesiac I’m at cal state LA and we are doing clinicals, however out of the 68 of us, about 10 people got stuck with doing sim lab ?. Thank god I didn’t end up in that group. I’m pretty sure...
Hello everyone! This is the admin. As some of you know, I decided to go to CSULA. I wanted to check in and hear about you guys experience at CSULB so far? How do you guys like it?
Not gonna lie....
Well that is good to hear that Long Beach memorial is going to be holding clinicals again! It’s unfortunate there are so many uncertainties right now for all nursing schools in California. Hopefully...
Hi guys! This is the admin of this blog. I accepted admission to Cal State LA so I have not been following this blog anymore. But I was just curious... are you guys going to be having clinicals this...
Really??? Thanks for the update. I wonder why mine still says incomplete ? nursingcas verified my transcripts before when we were applying and I know I put everything correctly on my application so...
Hi, CONGRATS! if you read back through the comments (I know it’s a lot LOL)... this actually happened to both me and @nursingtings. Although, I didn’t really appeal... when the acceptance letters...
