Editor's notes
- Check whether your high school is in CSUSM's local area. Local applicants need a 2.00 A-G GPA, while other Californians need a 2.50 or supplemental factors.
- If you want nursing and live outside the local area, have a backup plan. CSUSM says it hasn't had space for non-local nursing applicants in three cycles, and you can't switch in later.
