U.S.A. Hawaii

Published

I'm applying for UH MEPN program for Fall 2009. Has anyone heard about the program? It's fairly new but I just want to know what I'm getting myself into...lol. I know overall, nursing school is tough but would like some feedback on the MEPN program itself.

Thanks!

Thanks. We'll keep everyone posted.

Hey all I just wanted to give a heads up, I got in and was notified via phone....I can't wait to meet you all this year or next! I hope we can carry over this supportive energy. :D

Good luck to all, and if this isn't your year don't take it too hard (I know it upsetting), next years apps are soon!!!!!

Congrats ajbob... :)

anyone else got contacted via phone about being admitted to the program?

congrats AjBob! Do you mind me asking how you did on the prereqs?

Blahblah,

I got an A inor. chem. and anatomy, B stats, taking phyis. now (will be an A), and taking micro. in summer.

Hope that's helpful!

Ps- I got by Bac. at UHM, had a ref. from a nurse and a bio. teacher and volunteer at a hospital.

chem was required?

I am abroad, so I got an Email that I have also been accepted to the Public Health Nursing program. Very Excited! It's a great program with a fantastic focus. I got all As in the Pre-req except for Anatomy. I will finish up soon but will have As. If any one has questions, just ask. Cheers

hollownurse,

did you receive your email today? or was it on thurs/fri? thanks.

chem was required?

nope chemistry is not required. only anatomy/physiology plus labs, stats, & micro.

Hi Eriggirl:

I got it Thursday night pretty late. It looks like they wrote it at around 6pm or after Hawaii time. I was in contact with Erik Anderson and he may have only been doing me a favor, so I wouldn't get worried yet if you've not been contacted. I explained to him that I have been abroad for 5 months and the mail will go to my Mother's address and takes forever as we are from a very small town (pop 100) in the midwest. I asked if there was any way to know once mailings were sent out so I could sort things out with other schools. So, the Email was from him and it may have been just being nice, though letters I think are going out in the next couple weeks, as he mentioned that in the same Email. So I would just not worry to much as perhaps those with special circumstances are being told a bit early. If you do make any contact, just don't mention anything about me or my post name personally as I don't want to be the one to cause a phone uproar. That would be ugly. Just ask if any news has gone out (or something like that) in a general tone. Thanks :)

What track did you apply to? I had my interview on March 3rd if that helps you out.
