August 7, 2005: Cal State nursing program deemed 'impacted' by CSU officials:Cal State San Marcos will have the unusual opportunity to pick and choose which students are admitted to its new nursing program, based on their grades and other criteria. Nursing officials at the college received permission from Cal State officials in Long Beach last week to declare the nursing program ---- set to start in the 2006 fall semester ---- an "impacted" major. That designation will allow the college to rank applicants based on their grades in science classes and whether they have previous experience in health care."
