You can apply as a student for the Spring semester but not for the nursing program. The nursing program always starts in the fall.

If you want to get into the nursing program do not apply to another major at CSULA, that automatically means you can’t apply to the nursing program as you would need to be a pre-nursing CSULA student or a transfer student to apply.

You’re welcome! Last years cohort had to pay around $1500 at orientation for lab fees, uniforms, textbooks etc. they’ll give us the list breakdown eventually but I’m guessing it’ll be around the same price.

If you’re paying in state tuition it’ll be about $3500 each semester, so around $8000 a year. If you’re a transfer you won’t be able to register for classes until you go to the general orientation but that’s okay since you don’t need to worry about classes filling up since you have a spot reserved for you for each class now that you’re in the nursing program. If you’re a current CSULA student the registration dates aren’t out yet unless you have priority registration which begins may 10th.

They’re gonna provide all the information at orientation. If you’re a transfer student you’ll have 2 orientations, the one for the nursing program will tell you everything you need to know and provide you with the handbook and rules. You’ll also get an email with all the courses you need to enrol in.

No problem! Your AP stats covers the math. The reason it says math/econ is because you can take the same stats course under the econ department instead of the math department but it’s the same course.

If you pass the AP exams with a 3 or higher you’re good. This is the current rule, that applies to current freshman and previous years but they wanted to change that this year to 3=C grade, 4=B grade and 5=A grade but left it as the current 3 and above means you pass, so it might change again for next year. If they change it to 3=C etc, you’d need to have a 4 or 5 for it to count otherwise you need to take the equivalent course for it since you cannot get a C or you’re out of the program automatically. AP Stats will cover your math class here, either language or literature will cover one of your English courses, not sure if history will be counted due to that when you take history here it usually covers an (re) or a (d) requirement so you might have to take another course to fulfil that part. Definitely let your advisor know about the AP courses you’ve passed when you meet with them over zoom after your orientation and they’ll be able to tell you what AP classes count for what.

Usually it’s Kaiser, cedar Sinai, I know there’s one downtown, one by long beach, one by Burbank, there’s more but I don’t know them all.

You can do your hours anywhere as long as you’re doing patient care as in interacting with patients, ie. bringing them water, a blanket or doing more hands on stuff like assisting with wound care. Filing paperwork at a hospital/clinic wouldn’t count. Not sure if getting your CNA license would help but it can’t hurt, as long as you have hours working patient care.

I would email --------------------- to say you're declining your acceptance into PACSON although you were supposed to respond to the email before the 26th so she might have automatically declined you already. As for the portal I would call the admissions office and let them know that you do not wish to attend CSULA so that you have everything cleared up ?

They haven’t been determined/set yet and they’ve been changing due to covid, for example we could usually do clinicals at cedar Sinai but not since the pandemic, but there are sites all over LA to choose from. They’ll usually give you a site that’s close to where you live so you don’t have to travel too far.

You have to take your Upper Division GEs at CSULA you can’t take them anywhere else so yes they’d be additional to whatever you took at your CC. If you Google “CSULA upper division GEs” it should be the first thing that comes up ?

There are 3 Upper Division General Education classes you need to take. You need to take one from each block (B, C & D) there’s a wide range of course such as English, psychology, language, art etc. you can pick any course as long as you take 1 from each block and 1 of them has to have a civic learning (cl) requirement.

I just got accepted ? TEAS: 85.3% GPA: 3.96 Volunteer hours: 100

You’re welcome! We took it online but I’m not sure how long they’ll be offering it online for. The test wasn’t shortened but I finished with a lot of extra time left so make sure to take your time (if you take it online) because you’ll have plenty of it! You can take it whenever they have the dates listed pretty much everyday at different times so you just select whenever it suits you. You can either take it under a “school” or with ATI TEAS personally I took it with ATI not under a particular school, you’ll see when you check out the website.
