There's no way to prep for the program. They send you a large envelope with papers that contain information about all the extra things you have to pay for like the background check, books, lab supplies, uniforms, etc. Orientation is also the day befo...

The material isn't difficult, it's studying that is the hard part. People come in having had straight A's and they have to get used to getting B's for possibly the first time. You have to figure out different study habits until you find out one that ...

Hi, just finished up my first quarter as a CSULA nursing student & I have never studied so hard in my life to get just ok grades. Just so you know, I am one of the people who was waitlisted and got accepted. I had 24 points. But, also know that ...

Didn't get anything in the mail either

We're the cohort for the traditional BSN program for CSULA.

i believe it's for people who don't have an associates

information on the entrance exam can be found by googling "bsn kaplan information mount st. marys" they accept 10 transfer students out of over 200 applicants. so yeah.. it is pretty difficult to get in, but it's always good to try

Yes, I am a continuing student. My registration date was on July 25th 6AM. When I tried to add classes, it would not let me so my friend went to talk to you know who and wrote my name down for me so she can give me permission to add the lecture cours...

I was able to register for only 3 of the 5 courses, aka the lecture courses. The lab courses will be added the day of orientation I believe.

I know what date I'm allowed to register. I wasn't sure if I could enroll in the nursing classes, but I emailed you know who and she responded saying that I should be able to enroll for the lecture classes.

has anyone been able to register yet?

From past years posts, I've heard we weren't allowed to register for classes until we attend orientation which is the day before the first day of school. Also, the nursing classes say that you must be in the nursing program in order to add the class...

I find it insulting that you "used to love to tell the CNA's and Nurses to drain the colostomy / illiostomy / g-tube / catheter bags"

In the United States nursing programs, CSULB ranks #193 & CSULA ranks #79. CSULA is #2 in los angeles. Both have high pass rates. CSULB has a nicer campus. I heard CSULB is harder to get into than CSULA though. Congrats on getting into both. I k...

12 pm, noon! YES!

The upper division GE's are chosen by theme. http://web.calstatela.edu/univ/advise/docs/geudthemes.pdf You choose one theme, and pick one class from each category.

Okay, I just think that when it turns to semester it'll be the regular fall courses we need to take plus half the courses from the following winter. Then spring will be the other half of winter courses plus the regular spring courses.

BTW, the guy I talked to on Monday is the same guy I handed my acceptance letter for admission today. He told me that right after he talked to me on Monday he mailed my acceptance letter. He just couldn't tell me while we were talking, but he knew th...

In a normal full-time semester system, people take 5-6 classes. In a quarter system, people take 3-4 classes. Since quarter is faster, you need a smaller load. Since semester is longer, it's easier to take on more classes. But both still complete the...

just keep waiting! The fact that I got my letter before the accept/decline deadline means that they could just be sending a few letters everyday.

I just got my acceptance letter in the mail today!

@HeyYouNotYouYou, did you calculate your total points for the CSULA program? The program is based on a point system. If you look at their website there is a link to how the school calculates your points. The highest points gets in. This time, people ...

I see. I say you submit a copy of your current transcripts and send another one after the spring semester. CSULA is known for losing paper work like transcripts.

I don't know what bp is. But Health and Human Services is the name of the college in CSULA. That college contains multiple majors from health science, public health, and includes nursing. Also, do you have any holds?

I spoke with the guy at the nursing office today. He said he reviewed my file and that I have 24 points. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to tell me where I am in the list or how many people were on it. At least I know my points for sure now. Just going...
