2013 UCSF MEPN Applicants

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Published

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to apply for the 2013 cycle of MEPN at UCSF (application date would be September 1 of this year). I'll be applying for psych/mental health, and it will be my first time applying to this program. I was wondering if anyone else is out there who is applying for the 2013 cycle. I'm hoping we could share encouragement and tips!

Also, there's a thread for 2012 applicants- definitely check that out too. :)

I will be applying for the 2014 MEPN cycle - what were people's revised GRE scores that have been accepted or rejected?

I will be applying to the Psych/Mental Health NP program for 2014, and just took the Revised GRE with a 158 Verbal and 150 Quantitative. Was trying to figure out if I should take it again or if these scores would be acceptable. Do you mind telling me what you got? Do you have a sense for average scores?

Hi,

I don't know how to pm you, but I do have some questions about the diverse experience. Would trained counseling experience help? I don't intend to be a psych nurse, but it may come I handy. I am also looking at studying genomics and stem cells by getting a certificate to complement my B.A. and MBA degrees.mi have a 3.7 in pre-requisites, low GPA in B.A. And MBA degrees (2.3 or so :( )

I suppose experience will be the one that will get me in. Please advise. I'm not a good standardized test taker and expect to get low GRE scores,except for the writing. That will be OK.

Hello there, a question for you older MEPN applicants.. for your goal statement, did you limit the amount you talked about things that were also found in your experiences page? The volunteer/work experience section asks for a 750 character summary for each position, so there would be a lot of overlap between the two if you did, right?

Does the application get read in its entirety by the same person? Just don't want to be repetitive but also want my essay and experiences to compliment each other...

Thanks ahead of time!

hi DoulaMama,

i know this was a while ago but how are you doing in your MEPN program? can you tell me anything about the school? how is the program?

i am interested in the CNM as well as the CNM/WHNP programs. it sounds like it's hard to get in though.
