Direct Entry nursing vs. 2+2

Hi everyone! So I’m in California and have applied to UCLA and UCI, and 1 CSU for nursing. I also applied to a few out of state schools. All of my schools besides my CSU are direct entry, but I don’t want to rule out the CSU just because it’s 2+2…

So my question is, how hard is it to get into a CSU nursing program after the pre reqs? I know the CSU’s are all really competitive for nursing, but does anyone know the exact number of applicants and how many they accept? The only thing that makes me nervous about maybe having to attend a CSU is that I might not get into the nursing major after my pre reqs. I mean I don’t want all of my hard work to go to waste! And the reason I am considering a CSU is because of the price, which is very reasonable.

Thanks to anyone who has any info! :slight_smile:

I imagine the competivenss varies among the different CSUs. You would need to contact the CSU where you applied and ask for data on applicants, acceptances and typical GPA for nursing school applicants.
