  1. I just declined my spot in the upcoming UW ABSN cohort. Wishing you all the best
  2. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    Do any of you guys still have a 'hold' on your account? I think it might be due to transcript processing, but I'm not
  3. Hello @nurslady182 & @TrishVan7, a good resource is the "University of Washington (UW) Housing, Sublets & Roommates" group on Facebook if you're looking for affordable off-campus housing.
  4. New SFSU/CSM ABSN Spring 2019

    @doglover.28 My interview is Tuesday, April 9th @2:30PM! Seems like there might be a 10 minute overlap between our interviews. ? I'm also wondering if this is going to be a group
  5. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    I think in an e-mail they mention a mandatory graduate student orientation on Thursday, August 1st + another clinical orientation sometime in September! Just other important dates to keep in
  6. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    Lol I'm wondering if the estimated amount is guaranteed if we apply for scholarship in May/June though? Craig just gave me the estimate of 10k, but I'm not sure if this amount is guaranteed... But...
  7. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    That's a lot of scholarship $$! I will definitely keep an eye out for scholarship opportunities! If everything works out with scholarship & living frugally, hopefully I won't have to pull out too...
  8. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    If there are any current/past UCLA MECN students frequenting the forum: how did you guys fund the program? I talked to the financial aid advisor and was estimated to only be offered ~10k in...
  9. CSULA's ABSN program Summer 2019

    I’m really sorry to hear as well and I hope you get into one of your other programs! I literally just interviewed today and Dr. Hinoki said she wouldn’t finish interviewing everyone until...
  10. EVC FALL 2019

    I just got an e-mail from EVC!!!!!! Who else got in (I'm for Fall
  11. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    Does anyone know if it's possible to get a financial aid estimate for the program sooner? I know the financial aid package doesn't really show until August, but I'm deciding between the MECN program...
  12. I was wondering if anyone has any insight on choosing between a Masters Entry Clinical Nursing (MECN) program and an Accelerated Bachelors in Nursing (ABSN)? MECN is a 2 year program vs. ABSN being...
  13. EVC FALL 2019

    Only a couple of more days--hold on tight everyone & good
  14. I think it might just depend on the program? It's interesting that some schools wouldn't take an RN, MSN in lieu of an RN, BSN as an application requirement, considering that it seems like the RN, MSN...
  15. I think I will be getting some sort of financial aid for the master's program whereas for the ABSN I would have to pay it in full out-of-pocket (aka most likely private loans w/ high interest rates...
  16. CSULA's ABSN program Summer 2019

    I was offered an interview last Thursday, so it seems like Dr. Hinoki is still reviewing applications! The very last interview slot seems to be March
  17. A very valid point! I definitely shouldn't underestimate the MECN because it's a longer program. I didn't really think about the fact that some of the MSN courses could be transferable to a graduate...
  18. I'm actually kind of in the same boat, where I would like to pursue the APRN/NP after working as an RN for a while! I'm pretty sure I've exhausted all the finaid I could get for undergrad during my...
  19. @hakutai839 yes!! Exactly my dilemma in that the MSN is more costly both in tuition and time (in which I could be working as an RN sooner with an ABSN). I guess there are more pros with the ABSN, but...
  20. EVC FALL 2019

    Does anyone know how big the cohorts are? Aka how many students get accepted for Fall 2019/pushed to Spring
  21. Can I work during an ABSN program?

    Not speaking from personal experience, but a close friend of mine did a 15 month ABSN while working 2 per diem PCT jobs at busy hospitals. I think she worked twice a week, 12 hour shifts? She's...
  22. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    UCLA MECN Class of 2021 Try the link
  23. UCLA MECN Fall 2019

    I also received an acceptance e-mail yesterday! My stats are as follows: - Undergrad GPA 3.313, idr my prereq GPA for this particular program but I think I had a C in chemistry, a B+ in physio, and...
  24. Has anyone started the post-bac program application process? Is this more of a formality or have any of you heard of people actually not being accepted to the post-bac
  25. I was also accepted for the Fall 2019 start. Here are my stats: Undergrad GPA: 3.3 Prerequisite GPA: 4.0 (physiology & ochem are in progress) Proctored exam: pretty weak essay, but got all the...
