    They're meeting to make their final decisions so you'll hear next week. At least that's what we were told. If look at the 2018 MEPN thread, I went back a couple of years to see when they came back with final decisions. It's historically been around...

    Yes, it's a sweet deal. Your odds will depend on your circumstances (if you're needing housing for you and your family/partner) as well as your move-in date. I chuckled when I read about the sign-in sheet!

    You will get an email that your application status has 'changed' and then you sign in and see your decision. At least that's what happened with us last year. I think I got the email in the afternoon (around 2pm). It was a Thursday.

    Just wanted to let you all know that decisions should be sent out to you all towards the end of next week. We got our decisions on February 15th last year. Best of luck to you all.

    Everyone is paying different amounts depending on whether they are living in student housing or privately owned accommodation. Our circumstances are all different. Some people live in the East Bay or South Bay and commute while some of us live in SF....

    Sorry for just getting back to you now, but the Fall quarter really got the best of me as I was an 'A'. There were 10 of us that got in for CNM/WHNP last year. My interview was great. I was interviewed on the first Friday group last year and could no...

    It does feel like forever. I long for December, too, as that is when half of us will be done with the medical-surgical rotation. The program has been intense and the summer quarter especially so. We took three classes in the summer quarter, four if y...

    How is everyone holding up? I remember the time after submitting my application and waiting for an interview invite as being the hardest for me last year. We just finished our grueling summer quarter and have a two week break so if there are any ques...

    Have you seen this from the UCSF School of Nursing website? "There are two sub-specialization tracks: Adult Gerontology CNS- Oncology and Adult Gerontology CNS-Critical Care Trauma. The AG CNS-Oncology subspecialty is open to MEPN applicants, but a ...

    I am currently in the thick of our MEPN summer quarter, but I wanted to add some thoughts as I had similar questions as an applicant last summer. Your goal statement and personal history writing pieces will overlap at times and this is fine. You'll w...

    The GRE was a requirement for our cohort, but I believe ours was the last. The GRE is no longer required for MEPN according to the UCSF website. I'm happy for everyone that doesn't have to take it going forward because the GRE was long, dreadful, and...

    Online Prerequesites

    I was just accepted to nursing school with online prereqs that I took at Johns Hopkins (Human Development and Statistics). However, I'd like to echo what others have said about checking with the nursing school(s) that you hope to apply to and find ou...

    Getting involved in Maternal Health Research

    I currently manage a maternal health study and will be leaving it to attend my CNM/WHNP program this summer. From my experiences of working with nurses actively involved in maternal and women's health research, I can tell you that most do have a PhD ...
