 Re: UCSF CNM program
I'm curious to know if you speak Spanish. Now this is just my experience, so take it for what it is, but when I talked to them a couple of years ago, they wanted to know if I spoke Spanish, and when I said I didn't they all but told me my chances are slim.
I don't mean to scare you, knowing how tense this moment can be, but just sharing my experience. Keep us up to date. I'd be curious to know.

Hi there,
I am planning to apply to the WHNP program at UCSF in 2010. I was wondering if anyone knows how the school views ADN nurses with a BSN from University of Phoenix (online). Yeah, I know they're accredited and all that, I guess I mean how they REALLY feel about it. Also, I know that being bilingual in Spanish is practically a prerequisite, which I'm working on, but what about the volunteer part? Do they really want to see volunteer activities or would that just be gravy? Thanks.

Re: UCSF CNM program
Update: Did not get in this time around  . However, I applied very very late in the game, so that's not a huge suprise. Plus, I got two rejection notices. One was very formal and just said thanks for applying, but we regret to inform you...good luck where ever you go. The other was much more personal and said things like you're obviously qualified, we just didn't have enough spaces, please apply again next year. So thats what I'm doing. Applications for 2009 open sometime this month. Thanks to all who responded. Would love to keep in touch with all 2009 applicants. Maybe we can be study partners one day  .

I'm just curious as to why if you didn't get in, why are you waiting an entire year to reapply there? Why not consider a distance learning school?
I'm curious to know people's reasons for choosing one school over another, other than location?
Is that something particular about the program you are interested in?

I'm sorry to hear that you did not get in, although it is nice to know they personally respond letting you know why you did not get in.
