Hi! I am currently attending a CSU and did apply to other CSU's but I have a feeling I will not get into them... My GPA is sort of low. I haven't taken the TEAS test yet but the TEAS test is what they look at for entry into west coast correct? I am looking into attending west coast. Is it a good school? I feel like people say it's really hard. Also.. it costs a lot too. Did you have to take out a lot of loans?

Hey rainy...

I noticed you posted the same thing on the other thread... lol...

Um it is costly... I didn't need too much taken out in loans... then again I qualified for FA and am using the GI bill...

As for hard... I'd say its just as hard as the CS schools... I start in jan.. ill be more informed then... but I have friends that go there now that aren't dying over the work load...

Hope that helped...

Since you're at a csu I'm assuming you took the SAT...you don't need the TEAS and you can just get that waived by WCU if you bring in your SAT scores and its over 1500

Also WCU is now regionally accredited by WASC which is the big one so you can go out there and most institutions will recognize your BSN just the same as a BSN from say a Cal State U.
