For more information on admission, application and program requirements, visit the standard B.S.N. page. 

To apply, you must complete the:

1. General application to the university (if you are not currently an SDSU student)
2. College of Nursing application
   1. The College of Nursing application is submitted via DocuSign. The application is typically available the first week of August for spring admission or the first week of January for fall admission. It is typically removed after the application deadline September 15 for spring admission or February 15 for fall admission
   2. Be sure to review the standard B.S.N. requirements before starting the process. Applicants can start the application and finish later—just be sure to save the email you will receive from DocuSign (and you will receive reminder emails every 12 hours until you complete the process). Do not start a new application from the above link.
   3. Applicants can choose "download" in DocuSign to save a copy of the PDF for working offline (and utilize the links in the application) however—you must still fill out the application itself in DocuSign. You cannot upload an application that you filled in offline.
