New entry-level Masters program at U of A!!

U.S.A. Arizona

Published

Hi all,

In the last week, U of AZ has posted a change to their programs. They have dropped their 2nd degree BSN and have added a mepn program (master's entry to the profession of nursing (mepn) pathway). This is available to those who already have a non-nursing bachelor's degree.

check out the link for more info:

I called to get more info. They said tuition would probably run between 35-45k(depends on residency status). They will start having info sessions on the new program starting at the end of this month.

:yeah:

Is there anyone applying for the 2014 Cohort? Have you guys heard anything about interviews yet? According to posts back in 2011 they received an email from the school around this time.

I applied and have not heard anything either. Interested to see how it plays out! Not too many posts out there about each cohort application process.

You're right there really hasn't been all that many posts about the program. I am also interested to see how the application process pans out. I am hoping that we will get email notifications today whether we have an interview or not. If we don't I'll contact the SON to get an update. The website said we are supposed to have interviews within one month of the application deadline. Coming from Washington it's much harder (and more expensive) to get airfare less than two weeks in advanced. Hopefully we will get ample notice.

Well - keep me posted. I am from So Cal, so am also concerned about travel scheduling and expense.

I have also applied for the 2014 MEPN cohort and haven't heard anything from the University yet. I'm hoping to hear some news really soon!

I looked at my application (OSIS) online and it looks like they marked my prerequisites as verified. I checked my application status this weekend and the classes were marked as not verified. It seems like there is some progress then.

I just checked too and am "received" for transcripts and "verified" for all prereqs as well. Waiting is painful! LOL.

My application status also shows the verified/received.

I wonder if there is any way to find out how many people applied to the program this year, and how many will be invited to the interview?

I nominate Joshuapvd to call.....;)

:) I emailed them yesterday afternoon. I'll let you guys know when I hear back from them.

Hee hee. I knew you would be up for it!

Hopefully there will be some news soon!
