What to Expect

At the end of the day, you can receive a same-day admission decision from our Nursing Faculty admission committee. Please note that if you are selected, your application will then be recommended to the University Office of Admissions and Recruitment, who will complete a final review to determine your eligibility for admission.

To ensure a smooth process, please come prepared with pdfs and hard copies (to be turned in) of:

Your unofficial or official transcripts.
Your resume or CV
Your California Registered Nurse (RN) License.
Your California NP/CNS/CRNA/CNM and NP Furnishing license (if applicable).
Proof of National Certification (if applicable).
The names and email addresses of three individuals who will provide letters of recommendation for you.

Your personal statement (no more than 2 pages double spaced) should include your reasons for wanting to pursue the Doctor of Nursing Practice degree, at least one idea of a clinical problem or issue you are interested in addressing for your DNP capstone project, and why California State University, Los Angeles' program best meets your needs.

This is typically at your place of employment and an agreement from your employer should be obtained prior to starting the program.
