What degree options are available for a student with an RN license? What are the prerequisites for applying for the BSN program at CSUMB? How do I apply to the program? How long will it take to complete the RN-BSN program? How often are the courses offered? Other than nursing classes, what other classes do I have to take to receive a BSN degree? How many times per year do you accept students into your BSN program? How do I know if the classes I took at the community college I attended are equivalent to the ones required at CSUMB? What is the difference between the unofficial and official transcript? Can I be admitted or conditionally admitted if I am in the process of taking certain required courses like the golden four? Are there any time limits of the prerequisite courses for the nursing program? When entering the nursing program, what documents will students need? Will I have to pass a background check? Can I apply if I already have a bachelor's degree? Once I am admitted to CSUMB, am I accepted into the nursing program? What happens to my application if I do not get in? Where can I take prerequisites/graduation requirement or general education requirements that I am still missing? What if the community college I attend doesn't have an articulation agreement with CSUMB? If I don't have all the prerequisite/graduation requirements, will the program take longer to complete? Who will be my academic advisor? Who can I contact about the registration process? How do I know what is required before I can register? What is the difference between ADN-BSN and RN-BSN? When can I begin the ADN-BSN? More questions? For any other questions about the Nursing Program at CSUMB, please contact our Nursing Program Advisor, Candi Prado at caprado@csumb.edu or 831-582-5303
