For the Cal State Apply Application, do applicants need to input all of the information for transcript entry, GPA entries, standardized tests, experiences and achievements? I understand applicants put this information in NursingCAS, so is it required on CalStateApply as well?

In the Cal State it asks for references, transcripts, and testing scores, since we will be submitting later on in the Nursing CAS application how we show that that information will be submitted later in the Cal State application?
