   jsala013 replied to ceecoxy's topic in California

   @hanabiwabi, I don't mind answering your questions! - I'm not sure what the admissions committee liked about me/my application exactly, but I guess I can just tell you a bit about my "stats" since applicants tend to be concerned about this (I known I...

   No problem @snailszy! I remember being on the other side just last year with a billion questions, so let me know if there's anything else I can help answer!

   HEY Pat! It's Jess! I'm a 1st year MECN student also, and I'd be happy to answer any questions, as well! To answer your questions, @snailszy: 1. We're only in our first quarter, so it may be too soon to tell. But so far, my impression is that UCLA i...

4. UCLA MECN Fall 2014?

   jsala013 replied to ceecoxy's topic in California

   @biglittlev I just received an email today from the Financial Aid Director offering me a fellowship. It was a complete surprise since I didn't apply for anything! But I read up on it, and I guess it didn't require an application. Also, I liked what ...

5. UCLA MECN Fall 2014?

   jsala013 replied to ceecoxy's topic in California

   Couldn't have said it better myself. Don't lose all hope, guys! There are always ways to strengthen your application if this round didn't work out. I had terrible grades in my first two/three years of school, as in multiple non-A's, even some in my p...

   jsala013 replied to ceecoxy's topic in California

   Thank you everyone!!! My last name starts with an "S" as well. Maybe they're doing it backwards alphabetical? Haha I don't know. But I also got an email within 5 min of seeing the letter online. So I must've checked just as they were posting it. Hang...

11. Western University MSN-E 2014

    jsala013 replied to emu3121's topic in California

    @wheems you're not the only one. I personally turned Western down because of the ridiculously high tuition. I'm sure it's a great school with awesome professors and clinical experiences. Every student I've spoken with has loved the program, but the o...

    To those of you who are eagerly awaiting a decision letter... I attended the 2nd early acceptance opportunity day and heard back within 2 weeks. My deposit was due by today (2 weeks within receiving the letter), but I've decided to decline the offer....
