What is Bootcamp?
While orientation is led by the Fresno State nursing program and its faculty, the Bootcamp is run by CNSA's Board of Directors (BOD) and other nursing student volunteers.

It is one of the ways we offer mentorship and guidance to first semester nursing students. Additionally, it is a great opportunity to meet other classmates in your cohort, especially those who will be in your first semester clinical group.
What to expect?
  • Headshots will be taken for your Fresno State Nursing ID badges. 
  • Purchase raffle tickets for a variety of nursing supplies.
  • Opportunities to meet other classmates.
  • Hands-on training in skills that will help you in first semester and beyond.
  • Meet the 2024-2025 CNSA Board of Directors.
  • Receive insight from existing nursing students. 
  • Detailed explanation to first semester assignments and expectations + overview of the program curriculum as a whole.
