I'm going to apply for 2016 cohort. Does anyone know how difficult it is to get into this program? Specific details? I'm in the process of making final application decisions. Any info is much appreciated.

How hard is it to get into palomar? I'm applying for the spring 2015 and hoping I get in. I have bachelors, 100+volunteer hours, and all recent prerequisites with 3.8 gpa, but just real nervous about TEAS test. Any tips and or advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your reply and the info. Gosh, I hope i get in this year to nursing school. Do you know if the program is hard to get into? I bet there are a lot of people who apply as it is so saturated in California. Any info would be great again! :)

I want to apply for RCC's nursing program. Just wanted to know how do they calculate for the pre-requisites. I took some of them over to improve the grade and also for recency issues, does anyone know how they calculate those grades? Also, if you didn't take the pre-requisites there, you have to go to a counselor to get them evaluated? Any information would be great!

I was wondering how did you do on the TEAS? I am terrified since I am not a good standardized test taker. Please let me know when you can.

Thanks for the info, are you applying soon or are you done? Do you know what the acceptance rate is and how much money it is?

how is the acceptance rate into the program?

Hello everyone, just posting here because honestly I am very discourage about life right now. I would really like to become a RN. I already have my bachelor's degree but did not finish off at a great gpa lower than 3.0 more like a 2.5. I know, horrible, but I was younger and had other issues that seemed more important. At this rate, I was thinking about applying to the community colleges in so-cal mainly grossmont and maybe miracosta. I am actually hoping for grossmont. I have proficiency in another language, volunteer experience, and bachelors..I was wondering if you have any tips, I am retaking my pre-req courses in order to meet the recency issue hopefully this semester or next and will be taking the TEAS, please any hopeful advice would be great. Other options also. PLLLEEAAAAAASE~

thanks. I wish you the best of luck. e-mail anytime if you just need to talk. [email protected]

Is this school acclerated? Long Beach is not bad. I would love to stay in California but I've heard so many bad things about how the acceptance rate in California is so low...but I would love NOT TO PAY OUT OF STATE fees..haha...could you send me more info? i couldn't see any on the site that was clear.

THANKS jjhc2006 ill look into it. I'm open to different options.

How is the acceptance rate? Which school in colorado?

Congrats in getting into a BSN program. Is your program accelerated? How long is it?

Hello! I've posted something similar in other forums but NEVER GOT A REPLY... Anyways, I am living currently in the San diego area and going back to a cc this upcoming fall semester to finish pre-reqs I will be taking 4 this round and then 3 the next round. Anybody have suggestions on which nursing schools are looking at the overall gpa rather than the gpa from the previous degree? I did not do to well because honestly I just wanted to finish. I intend to volunteer at Sharp and other volunteer programs as much as I can and work as well in order to keep money flow (that is if I get a job in this economy). Any other suggestions on what else I could do to look somewhat different than all the 489309238402983432 people who will be applying with me ???? I would like to stay here in California but if there are other schools please do not hesitate to mention them please!!!!!!

Seriously thank you for your post! I really needed this encouragement. I mean I have read SOOO many posts on how IMPOSSIBLE it is to get into a acc. bsn program here in california and it has been discouraging. I didn't graduate from the best university with the best gpa but I am seriously wanting to become an RN. Taking pre-reqs this semester and next. Hopefully I will get in somewhere when I apply..wish me luck all!

anybody got anymore information regarding this?? please post, it would be much appreciated!

This is so encouraging because honestly I'm 27 and trying to go back to nursing school, it seems to be the best thing right now in this economy. I hope we all have good luck and get into great nursing schools and become wonderful expert nurses in our fields!! go US!!! :)

Hey! I couldn't just pass up this...I hope all is going well for you. Have you applied to any nursing schools recently? Let me know, I just got back into the country and with the economy it is out here in California, looks like going back to school is good SINCE I can't get a job. Let me know! It always helps to go through things together!:redpinkhe:nurse:

Do mind if I ask what school please~? Thank you in advance.:)

Could you give some direction on the university that you are going to now? Thank you in advance!:)

Hey I saw your post, I was wondering if you could help me out with different school programs. I've read so much posts on these forums that I can't tell what is really true and not. I would like to apply for the Fall 2012 accelerated bsn programs for which I can still apply to. Any schools you can suggest would be wonderful! I reside in California but I know the schools here are extremely hard to get into so anything would be accepted Thank you so much in advance. (Sorry I didn't know how to PM..so quoted you instead.)

So I am considering DeSales because it seems like it's a good choice. thanks for your information, hopefully I will get in..currently working on prereq courses
