- Pre-requisite course work, not completed at SDSU or at local community colleges, may need to be evaluated by the Undergraduate Student Services Advisor or the Admission Coordinator.
- Because the School of Nursing is an impacted program, enrollment is limited to a select number of students each academic year who best meet the criteria. It is your responsibility to continue to check the website for any additions or changes in this information.
- There is no waiting list. Each academic year the best qualified students are accepted based entirely on a point system.
- If an application is not admitted to the School of Nursing, he/she MUST
re-apply during the application cycle for the following year.
- Upon admission to the School of Nursing, students must be CPR certified
and complete a background check. Proof of completion must be brought to the
Admission Coordinator. Additionally, students are required to have a physical
examination and take proof of examination and required immunization records
to Student Health Services, not the School of Nursing.
All of this is required prior to attending clinical classes.
