Traditional BSN Program

Program Details

  • CSUB Nursing offers a traditional nursing program that runs 3 years/6 semesters with summers off.
  • CSUB Nursing accepts new students once a year in the fall semester.
  • The Traditional BSN program at CSUB is impacted.  There are generally more applications received each year than the number of seats that can be accommodated.
  • Due to the impacted status, it is strongly recommended that prospective applicants view the admission requirements and policies in the Pre-Licensure Student Handbook. 

Virtual Information Sessions

The information sessions for the Fall 2025 admissions cycle will be posted sometime in mid-September and the registration link will be available at the end of the month.

These informational sessions are designed for students who are close to or ready to apply for the BSN Program for the Fall 2025 application cycle.  The sessions will include an overview of admissions requirements, applications, and general information.

All sessions will be held virtually via Zoom - registration is required.  After you register for a session, you will receive an email with instructions on how to join the meeting.  Please sign up for a session you can attend.  We will not admit attendees into the meeting room 10 minutes after the start time.

Foreign Degree Nurses

Unfortunately, CSUB Nursing is unable to accommodate any additional students wishing to take nursing courses out of sequence (MS, OB, etc.) without being formally accepted to the 3-year BSN program.  Nursing courses that are offered are only available to those who have been accepted to begin the BSN program from start to finish.
