First of all, CONGRATULATIONS for your acceptance into the Fresno State nursing program, and welcome to our nursing family!
We all are aware of the hard work and dedication you've given to reach this milestone, and we cannot wait to meet you this Fall!

What is BOOTCAMP?
While orientation is led by the Fresno State nursing program and faculty, bootcamp is run by CNSA's Board of Directors (BOD).
It is one of the ways for us to offer mentorship, as each of us can remember struggling through our first semester as a nursing student. It is also an opportunity to meet and get to know other classmates in your cohort, especially those who will be in your first semester clinicals. 

​WHEN is orientation & bootcamp?
Orientation will be on Monday, January 9th (0900 - 1600).
Bootcamp will be on January 10th, 11th, OR 12th (0900 - 1300).
Day of bootcamp will differ according to clinical groups 
​(please check with faculty or BOD member if unsure)!
What to EXPECT?
  • Ice breakers to induce communication and collaboration among you and your classmates.
  • Headshots (which will be used for your Fresno State nursing ID). 
  • Raffles for a variety of nursing supplies.
