Sacramento State (CSUS) Fall 2014 Applicants

Published

Hi All!

I'm currently applying for Sac state nursing fall 2014 as a transfer student. I'll have approximately 72 pts by the time of application. I cant wait for april/may to hear the results!

Interested in hearing about your experiences!

I'm soooo scared!!! I have 72 points .. I'm praying I make it in the cut..

According to the email I got from cstan, the deadline for your intent to enroll for the nursing program is 4/11, but the deadline for the intent to enroll for the university is 5/1 and requires a $200 deposit. Luckily there is no fee associated with the nursing program's intent to enroll, so I won't have to forfeit any money if sac lets us know on time.

They really are cutting it close! If I get admitted to sac after the 5/1 deadline then I'm out the $200 for cstan. I'm sure they're aware of situations like that though, so hopefully we'll find out by 4/30.

Hopefully my 78 points will do it. If I calculated it correctly that is.

Ugh, I feel like I got punched in the stomach. I'm not even close to being an alternate :(. I'm thinking the best way for me to boost score for next semester is to volunteer at a hospital. Unfortunately, it appears that a lot of hospitals don't allow volunteers to interact with patients. What exactly does Sac State want in terms of health care experience? Do you think CNA training (with clinical hours) would qualify for that? If so, I'm definitely going to sign up for a local CNA program.

Sorry to hear that ahimsa_L =( I feel pretty bummed too seeing that my chances are pretty low! I would think any patient interactions within a hospital setting would count because it states "health related work experience"

Does anyone know how the orientation thing works? Are we supposed to wait to register for it until we have an admissions decision?

I'm currently on my last semester at Sac State and I'm wishing you guys the best. :) If you have any questions, just ask away... hopefully I can answer them in a timely manner. Good luck!

@Lindsay sorry for the long reply. Sac State nursing department sent out an email with some info that @efsrous was talking about. The subject was "Sac State - Fall 2014 Admission - IMPORTANT Deadlines". I can forward it to you if you didn't get it.

Congratulations to everyone that is getting accepted!!! That's exciting! Let's hope we all get into Sac State. I am sitting at 75 points. Right on the edge??:)

Yes please! How do I get you my email address? I don't think we are supposed to post them on here.

Has anyone received any acceptance or rejection letters yet?

I feel so stressed and worried right now. I wish I wouldn't have put all my eggs in one basket!
