Mr. Suave

we start on sept 22nd so it is still a while yes, it is slightly different than the basic generic, but the requirements are about the same

the only time we have a break, is during the summer quarter

if you go to CSULA, the best major to change into is Health Science. 98% of your lower division GE's, and 100% of your Pre req GE's from nursing are transferable. that was my back up actually. When I was doing Pre-Nursing, I was under Health Science, and all the courses that I took under health science were also pre-reqs into nursing. I'm a second year, and if I didn't make the program, I would have finished the rest of health science upper division, and get my BS degree in 1 1/2 years. but with that degree, I would be able to get my masters in health care administration, or apply to the 1 year accelerated BSN program at Mount St. Mary's. I hope that helps!

beachbedhead, you are funny. You had already asked this question already! read comment 19 of this thread

Prereqs: 3.95 English 101: A Critical Thinking Phil 160: A Psychology 150: A Chem. 151: A- Biol. 200A anatomy: A Biol. 200B Human Physiology: A Communication 150: A Micro 201/202: B-/A- (part of Cumulative GPA but required to finish by the end of spring June 22) Cummulative GPA: 21 collegiate courses (3.83 GPA) Dental Asst Experience Teas Score: individual overall score 81.0% but I only got 5 points out of 10 because they only grade reading and english in which I was placed in the 78/68 percentile respectively total score 23 points nutrition is a coreq during your nursing classes, but you can finish it right now if you like best of luck Lysander01! don't be intimidated by my grades! if it is not your grades that get you in, it is a great TEAS score. the way people are selected, if you have the top GPA or TEAS, you'll get in. You do not have to necessarily need both. You can have a low GPA and a high TEAS score and get in, or have a Low TEAS score (above the 40th percentile) with a high GPA and still get in!

since it is a 400 level course (HS 400), it is less likely that there is a transferable course for Stats. Don't worry about that, that course, along with 2 other courses that will fulfill the nursing GE upper and lower division requirements (i'm not talking about the program courses that are blocked-sectioned for us), will be explained in FULL detail during orientation just relax during the summer, we finished all pre reqs to get in! see you then!

nice! congrats! you a transfer? because all I have now are about 10-15 students from CSULA who got in, there are not that much of us, so if you are a transfer, I look forward in making a new friend! see you on orientation!

the 3rd wave of acceptance letters are being sent today and will be received tomorrow. they are currently calling people to notify them of their acceptances. if you didn't get a call, it is okay because not everyone who was accepted will be called, because there are a lot of people to call. good luck, and I hope you all can get letters tomorrow!

My decision is merely based on the campus and its environment in terms of student body, extracurricular activities, and city. As for academical rankings, you can't go wrong with either. However, I would expect that UCLA's school of Nursing is much more heavily funded than San Diego's. Also, the opportunity for clinical research would be present. So, did you decline CSULA SON's acceptance? Because if you have not, you would be holding off the ranking process for wait-list applicants. So if you choose not to go to CSULA, please give them a call as soon as you can so that other people who are waiting can receive their letters. -thank you

I feel like we talked about this before? lol application cycle, budget cuts etc. It's cool, this site is also to express yourself too. I totally understand. But the majority of questions that you said, most of them have been answered pretty darn well so all we can do is wait. What I can tell you is that I took version 4, the cohort before that took version 4, and the one before that did the same.

No, CSULA is taking version 4 and not 5. I never heard of them changing it because they co associate with RIO HONDO CC who proctors version 4 daily. if anyone has official stuff that CSULA is taking version 5, let me know, because that would be new for the program.

they have been doing the same kind of ranking process every year- it is a type of ranking process that is appealing to transfers. CSULA is perhaps the only school that has been "transfer friendly." CSUF didn't even accept transfers this quarter! Perhaps if the reward of getting into a nursing program is great, then you ought to try your hardest right? because if you don't try your hardest, then you lose all of the shots that you don't take. Don't worry about the budget. It affects all of us everywhere. When the budget is low, morale is low. and when morale is low, competition is low. So the opportunity to capitalize on that will lead to success! And yes CSULAgirl07, I forgot to mention the 317 equivalent. thank you!

it's official! NTRS 250 is NOT a pre req for the fall. it is a Co req in the fall if you didn't take it. I went to the advisement to confirm. also, for those who had made it, and did not submit comm 150 and micro grades before June 22nd, your spot WILL be revoked. so make sure you guys send them on time if you all haven't! if you choose not to take these classes, please call advisement to drop your position in order for you to be eligible for admission in the fall of 2012 if you are not taking micro or comm 150 right now. failure to respond may disqualify you in the next application pool of 2012. But, if you have already taken and submitted these courses, just enjoy your summer

because CSULA grades version 4 for admission and NOT version 5
