University of Hawaii-MEPN PROGRAM...anyone heard about it?
-
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!May 28, '09Hey Propective Nursing Students,
I found out I got into the MEPN program and the BSN but unfortunately, I had to turn down the MEPN. I've decided to go with the traditional BSN. For those in the MEPN, good luck! I don't really know anyone in the MEPN but hope you share your experiences with us.May 31, '09BSN is classroom based. MEPN is both first year is classroom and when you transition to Master's specialty, then it's both online and classroom based. Are u thinking about it?Jan 22, '10Hey all, I'm applying this 2010,
Any tips or thoughts after a year? How many applied last year? And how many were accepted? When did you find out if you got an interview? Any suggestion for the interview?
I got my BA in a different subject from UHM and a Really want to attend thier MEPN prog., so any advice or information is welcomed.
Mahalo!!Jan 28, '10Aloha AjBob,
I too have applied for the Fall 2010 MEPN program. I have heard that the first part of the program costs are running around $100,000. I couldn't believe it.
I'm crossing my fingers for a letter ofr interview in March. The best of luck to you.Jan 28, '10How'd you get that number? I got. $121,986 for the whole program, Ped NP, using the tuition list for next year.Jan 28, '10I saw some private posts and the person said they had payed that just for the first part of the program. I am calling tomorrow to double check and make sure of the real cost of everything. I thought that was a bit too high for the first part of the program. I also read that they were having a hard time finding jobs after taking the NCLEX because they didn't have degrees (BSN) while doing the NP portion.Jan 28, '10That cost is not right for one year, unless you need like 50,000 for live costs...lol! But let me know what you find out please.
And I wouldn't worry about finding work, it prob is hard as HI is small, but if your not picky for the two years... It would cost but you can ensure work exsp by volunteering
Good luck!
Ps- what spec?
