Thank you so much Taraflesner for the information, especially the CNA tip. Pardon my ignorance, but is a tech the same as a CNA or does one become a tech first and then a CNA once certified?

We should all plan something for that June weekend. I'm open any time. Are there good times of day for you all?

Hi guys. We/weekend of 13/14 June works just fine for me. I also cannot pm yet. Did everyone see the email today from the school about the orientations? It seems that Sequoia cohort doesn't need to attend the orientation at SFSU main campus, but that there are two at the end of August for us in particular. Looking forward to those. I just wish I knew our schedules NOW! lol

I hear you, Kym! Anyone else confused by the orientation email? It mentioned a "mandatory" orientation at SF State in July, but then said the SF State orientation is optional. Are there two, with one being mandatory and the other optional? Confused!

Thanks for the info, Tara! I also noticed that you can go to the College of Extended Learning site (College of Extended Learning : San Francisco State University : Bay Area, California Continuing Education : Extension Classes + Certificates : SF State : SFSU) -- our program is run through the CEL -- and then click on "SF State Class Schedule" in the right-hand column. On the search page, select "CEL Academic Credit Session" under Session and "Nursing" under Subject. The results will show the current spring schedules for the Sequoia program which it least gives us a rough idea of start times.

The best time for me to meet is in the afternoon on Sunday the 14, if that works for other folks. Should we meet in RWC? I can PM everyone who is interested, collect email addresses, and send out a group email so we can organize off-site.

that date/time works for me.

works for me too. Yes, PMing is good or you could also send an email to all those who received the "save the dates!" email. Thanks for sending it.

Hi All,

That date works for me too, let me know where we will meet.

Regarding the email, I was confused too, but I believe there are 2 orientations. One for SFSU that you have to pay for that we are not required to go to and the other mandatory for the nursing program that will be held as SFSU (with info regarding background screening, registration, etc). My friend that got into the BS SFSU campus program just got an email tonight and it stated that on July 28, 2015 from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, there will be a mandatory orientation for students who will begin the nursing program this fall semester. I am not sure if this is the date for OURS, but I though I would share it with you in case it is. It sort of makes sense that this will be our date too since it's essentially the same program and we will need to have all the same requirements.

Cheers to Cohort X11!

Yes, according to the email sent from [email protected], that is the date for the mandatory orientation for ALL Nursing students at SFSU, regardless of either program( main campus and Canada campus).

And @spacemonster, the link you provided for checking out our classes work, but I only can view Summer courses, which currently have a TBA on days/times. I'm guessing that spring semester is over, thats why it got removed.

But thanks for the link anyway!

Hi! I am applying for the Fall 2016 Cohort! I wanted to see if anyone had feedback about their experience applying and or in the program! This is my first choice! Thanks!

Congratulations!!! I know this is an old thread, but how did your prerequisite and TeAS Score look?
