   I e-mailed SJ about this personally a few weeks ago! He told me either is fine, but keep in mind, it'd probably be easier on your reader if you bullet point since they'll be reviewing piles of other applications!

   Yes! For the personal history statement, I explained a bit about my personal background (such as the world I come from) but, more importantly, I explained specific life experiences that have led to my decision to apply to grad school. I made sure to ...

   I was having transcript trouble myself and have stressed so much over it. I was in a similar spot - trying to get NursingCas to verify a summer class I had finished taking and had gotten my grade for at the start of this month. I can empathize with h...

   Hi everyone, Resharing this Prezi presentation that someone posted previously. It's prepared by Sergio Saenz, Director of Outreach and Recruitment, from UCSF. This was publicly presented to students interested in applying to UCSF so I'm more than pos...

7. UCSF MEPN 2020

   Raverlane replied to kmd1005's topic in School Programs

   Thank you, kmd1005! I notice the Prezi presentation from Mr. Saenz has a slide recommending that applicants put their specialty as part of their headers - on both the personal history and goal statements. I notice this doesn't match the directions ...

   Hi everyone, About the goal statement, the instructions ask to "include your name at the top." Does anyone know if there's a specific format that this should be written in? Also, does anyone know if there are any font specifications? My goal statem...

   Yes, I believe you do! I emailed the SON e-mail and a representative informed me they'd like all official transcripts to be received by the Aug. 1 deadline.

    Hey everyone! So glad to see a thread set up because UCSF is my first choice school. I'm planning to apply to FNP but am considering AGPCNP since FNP is notoriously competitive. I have connections with professors from the school, so I'm looking forw...

    Hi Haron717, I believe what dlam is referring to are the second set of essay questions that follow the primary application. The statement of purpose and personal history statement are two additional essays that I've been told are a part of the secon...

    Hi all! Glad to see there's a thread up for UCLA MECN 2020. I'll be applying this cycle, too. I went to UCLA for undergrad and had a great experience. I'd appreciate the opportunity to go back! Good luck to everyone, we can do this!

    Hi Lulu! I'd e-mail the professors of these classes ahead of time to explain your situation. Grades aren't always released by the time a class ends, so it might be cutting it close. Though, if your professors are aware of your situation beforehand, m...

    Hi Asiyak44, I am actually in a similar position as you. I managed to find a short-term group communications class I decided to enroll in that ends 7/6. It worked with my schedule, and I figured if I can fit it in, then I should so that I can give my...
