It's that time of year again! I am planning on applying for the Fall 2019 quarter. The summer 2018 information sessions are now open. Who else is applying ?

Excited to hear back from UCLA!!

2018 heard back Feb 28; and 2017 heard back Feb 15. But I think the official word from admissions is we will hear back by March.

I looked into CSULA and their requirements are crazy. Good luck to you!

I didn't think their requirements were any worse than most programs... it was similar to MECN, except I had to take TEAS and there is an interview. I am really wondering why it seems the ABSN programs are more competitive than MECN (which takes 70 students a year)? Is it because the ABSN is faster and cheaper?

They seemed more strict on their grade requirement too, I believe I read you couldn’t get a C in any of the pre reqs. I got a C in micro so didn’t apply. Plus the interview and teas seemed too much for me. But maybe because of the amount of applicants they get? I’m not sure. I applied to an 11 month ABSN at Drexel and got in and their requirements were minimal. So I’m not sure !
