SFSU

[youknowho]

Hey everyone. With so many programs sending acceptance letters I am checking to see if anyone has heard from SFSU?

This may sound weird but I got my acceptance letter. I got in to both the Nursing (1st choice) program and Biology (2nd choice) at SF state. Now I'm torn because I like both majors.

did you check your mail?

did you check your mail?

Nothing in the mail yesterday, hopefully today, I will be waiting for the postal carrier. LOL

[Reebles]

I am assuming you would get email if they accepted you. still waiting for mine. =x

I don't think they do it through email. The Nursing School automated message said they were sending (mailing) letters starting this week through April 16th.

Carry biology as your minor.

what does sfsu want. 4.0 overall w/ pre-req and I had 60 hours of volunteering. It kind of hurts getting declined.... time to get wasted.

I'm going to predict this now. SFSU goes to the teas for the 2011 application.

I also got wait-listed WTH...this is why SFSU needs to require the TEAS test....to the people who got in congrats =]. Does anyone who actually got in like to share what else they had besides for gpa like work experience and language.

I don't understand their rules. In the pre-nursing forums, someone said they had a 3.7 prereq GPA with 1/3 of the supplementals and was accepted, and then Brighten says he got denied with a 4.0 and volunteer hours (which I assume is a supplemental). It makes no sense to me. I didn't even apply, but I was considering it, and they just confuse me so much from what I have read on here.

[caliotter3]

Some schools choose all their students from a large pool of applicants who have a 4.0 GPA, while other schools do not have that many applicants with a 4.0 GPA, so they go lower. There is also the possibility, that a selection committee may go out of their way to admit an otherwise exceptionally qualified person with a 3.8 GPA, over someone with a 4.0 who is weak in other areas of the application process. It is up to the school to determine how they do their selection, but always best for applicants to get as high a GPA as possible.

^ Yeah I didn't have the language or the hospital supplemental stuff. That is probably why I got declined. SFSU doesn't really tell you how they break out their application procedures. its weird.

the only thing that I had was the 4.0 and 1/3 supplemental.

Congrats to those who did get accepted though.... :)
