  1. CSULA ABSN/ELMN 2014

    Discussion related to the Summer 2014 start of Cal State LA's ABSN/ELMN
  2. Confused on When I should apply??

    It depends on the program you apply to. Each will specify if they need to have prerequisites completed by the application date or by the semester/quarter before you start. Many ask for the sciences to...
  3. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    I applied to a few other schools (accepted to one other), but not any other CSU programs. The main reason why I did not apply to others was because none had the direct entry option like CSULA. I am a...
  4. Financial aid for a Post-Bac program?

    Look into Sallie Mae loans. I have been able to take out as much as I need as long as the school certifies it within budget. Oh and I am in a second bachelors program as
  5. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    If the schedule is the same as last year - you should be hearing very soon! If I recall correctly - we heard the Monday of spring break. Please know - this week is finals week, so the program...
  6. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    Ah thanks RNNP! I agree with everything you
  7. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    Unfortunately I cannot give any specifics, but I can say it will relate to nursing and will probably be on a topic you are very familiar with or at least have a solid opinion about. Do not stress over...
  8. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    Hi all. I was in your shoes this time last year and was just as anxious. I can tell you that the program coordinator is very busy, so just be a bit more patient. In addition to reviewing each and...
  9. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    I can comment on the application to the university - you don't apply unless you are accepted to the program. They open up a special session for just the people who are committed to joining the cohort....
  10. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    We were just discussing this the other day. We do not know for sure, but I think it is around 250-300 applications, maybe
  11. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    I can tell you from our experience last year - the coordinator's assistant will email you a week or two after the due date to let you know they got your application and if there is anything missing,...
  12. Western University MSN-E 2015 Applicants

    It is a written response to a prompt, it is just not hand written. They give you a lap top to write your essay. You save it to the laptop and they evaluate from
  13. Retaking the TEAS

    I believe you get individual reports for each exam, but each report shows the # of attempts on it. I just looked at my report from last year and it says Attempt # of #. So Attempt 1 of 1 or 4 of 6,...
  14. Western University MSN-E 2015 Applicants

    Could not agree more! I remember this time last year and how stressed and anxious I was about everything. I too was checking my emails and Allnurses every hour to see if there was some clue about when...
  15. Western University MSN-E 2015 Applicants

    I went through the interview process last year and was accepted to the program, but decided to attend a different school. I can tell you the written portion was opinion based. We were randomly given a...
  16. CSULA 2015 ABSN Program

    Hey guys! Just thought I would chime in. I am currently in the first year of the program and am available to try and answer questions if you need it. As far as requirements to get in - I would just...
  17. Western University MSN-E 2014

    If I recall correctly, you can login to your account and it will show a received date when they are received and
  18. As an FYI they are changing the requirement for next year. Instead of cumm GPA, they will take last 60 units and prerequisite
  19. interview questions???

    Think of some situational/ethical questions. I had one that was about witnessing a co-worker clock in for another co-worker - what do you do? If the program is small, consider a few teamwork type...
  20. pre-reqs for Nursing

    Be sure to find the community college in your area - you will be considered within district and get an earlier date than those who do not live in the area. Start taking any classes you can - the more...
  21. CSULA ABSN/ELMN 2014

    We just had our orientation on Saturday. One person was called the day or so before. We had 30 people attend the orientation. Unless something happens - we are a full
  22. CSULA ABSN/ELMN 2014

    Excited to meet you
  23. Accelerated BSN programs in LA?

    I do not think UCLA has an ABSN program. They have a Masters level program that provides all the core RN courses to sit for the NCLEX and also provides additional coursework to support sitting for...
  24. CSULA ABSN/ELMN 2014

    Any other members of the new cohort out there? We have a Facebook group started with lots of interesting topics - please join us by either sending me or lgripe a PM or searching for the following on...
  25. Pasadena Fall 2014

    Just an FYI, I stopped in the main office on Thursday to update my email address on my application. The gentleman that helped me said that emails would probably go out second week of May. So, next...
