MEPN Programs

[mgates4]

Hi everyone!

Im an undergrad at Loyola Chicago and I'm planning on graduating next May and applying to some master entry programs. I'm super bummed because almost half of them require your prerequisites to be completed at time of application (UCSF, Rush, Davis).. and I wanted to hear about other people's experience!

What kind of grades/extracurriculars/experience have successful applicants had? Do you think they favor people who are older and have had a degree in another field for a few years or will be equally as likely to accept a new grad?

I'm looking into USF, USD, Western U of science in Pomona and UIC so far. I have a 3.7 GPA now although my science GPA is a lot lower...

Thanks in advance!
