Program Overview

 
If you're a student in an Associate Degree Nursing Program at a nearby community college and in good academic standing, you have the opportunity to enroll in a course at San Diego State University and earn credits towards your BSN. This can be done through Cross Enrollment or Open University depending on a few factors. Please refer to the Cross Enrollment Order for further details. Additionally, completing the intake form and scheduling a meeting with the ADN program director are essential steps. This ensures that you select the appropriate courses. Once all necessary steps are completed, obtain the required signatures from your community college program director and electronically submit the Cross Enrollment Form to SDSU's Registrar's Office. Take the time to familiarize yourself with SDSU's policies and ensure compliance with any associated fees. That's it!

Applications for Cross Enrollment are accepted beginning one-week prior to the start of classes through the end of the fifth day of classes.

  • Review the policies and procedures for withdrawing.
  • Course forgiveness can be requested through your SDSU WebPortal if you previously took the Cross Enrollment course at SDSU as a matriculated student and left SDSU in good academic standing.
  • Cross enrollment courses earn SDSU residence credit. The associated units and grade points will be included in the SDSU grade point average and will affect SDSU academic status.
  • Participation in student activities or use of the SDSU student union is subject to limitations set by SDSU.
  • Use of SDSU Student Health Services is limited to treatment of emergencies.

Financial aid is available only through your home campus. Students eligible for Veterans, Rehabilitation, Social Security, and other federal, state or county benefits must secure eligibility certification through their home campus. Units taken at both campuses may be combined to establish financial aid eligibility.
