Cal State East Bay is very friendly towards veterans. I just separated from the Air Force and was planning on starting this Fall 13 quarter for pre nursing but I figured out I could finish all the prereqs in time to actually apply for the Nursing program this November if I started this summer quarter instead. The veterans office is now switching me to the summer quarter fast enough to still receive priority registration. I also talked to one of the Nursing Department's admissions evaluators and she specifically told me that as long as you meet minimum admissions requirements and are a veteran, you will be accepted to the Nursing program. Good news for us! Just make sure your have everything together by the deadlines and you should be golden. I'm still going to try and do well on the TEAS but it's essentially a solid for us veterans. Note: Make sure to give the Nursing department your DD214 separately from CSU themselves by the time your APPLICATION is due (November), NOT when other documents are due (February). My guess is that they admit veterans rather quickly and then determine from there how many seats they have left over to offer to other applicants. P.S. I'm taking Human Anatomy I & II and Chem 1 this summer as well as Micro and Chem 2 and Logic this fall at East Bay if anyone else is joining me Good luck!
