@Ordinarylives thank you for commenting. At bigger schools, the weed from pre-nursing to nursing out can be large even with the grades required if you have trouble on the pretests, there are too many people vying for too few spots, do not realize the little requirements, if you do not follow the path of classes and try to go abroad, or if you try to stay within the 4 year time line but still need aid when you don’t get in the first time around and must stay and try again among other things.

@tripletplus1mom It all comes down to how serious she is about Nursing. I have found most nursing majors who are serious about nursing as a career prefer the direct route. Those that are not positive, have not had nursing experience, or are interested but also interested in other majors prefer pre-nursing so they are not stuck in the major. If she is serious about nursing SDSU.

If she is unsure UCLA is a better choice.
