SFSU BSN Spring 2023

Published

Hi there! I applied for the SF State BSN Spring 2023 program and I couldn't find a forum so I thought I'd get it started here. 

Does anyone know when decisions are released or if there will be interviews this round? I've heard varying reports on whether or not those were happening. 

Good luck to everyone who applied! Hopefully we all get good news!

Hi! I just got my results and was waitlisted.

I got in! But, I’m going to decline admission because I was also accepted into East Bay. Hopefully someone who is waitlisted will get in. Here are my stats for future references:

4.0 Cumulative GPA

88.7 TEAS

250+ hrs of community service

CNA license with 980+ hrs of work experience. 

I wish you all the best of luck with your nursing journey. If you didn’t get in, reassess and reapply! This was my 3rd time applying, so don’t give up!!

Hi! 

I have received acceptances from both CSU East Bay and SFSU for Spring 2023. I am completely torn between the two. Considering there are so many knowledgable Nursing students here, I was hoping you could inform me about either of the two programs. I want to make my final decision tonight.

Let me know any pros/cons with SFSU and CSU East Bay.

Hi there!

First, congrats on your acceptances! I too was accepted to both schools, but ultimately chose east bay simply because of its proximity to my home. I live in the east bay and the commute to SFSU for school and clinicals would be terrible at times!

SFSU’s program is 2 years, while EB is 2.5. The NCLEX pass rate is currently higher at SFSU (88%) than EB (80%), but the results may be a bit skewed bc EB had about double the amount of students who took the exam this year. Both schools have great professors and relationships with local hospitals for clinical placements. They both are about the same price as well. It’s a hard decision, but the good thing is…you honestly can’t go wrong either way!

Best of luck to you!

Does anyone know when they’ll change our current major into nursing so I can sign up for classes?

So I’m kind of new to the SF State platform, but are we supposed to be enrolling for nursing classes that are on the nursing roadmap ourselves or are we waiting for further instructions from a counselor or email to guide us with that. 

And what classes are you trying to enroll in now? Some general ED classes needed for graduation?
