  1. I agree with you about the GRE- I am the same way about which schools I apply to based on this requirement. I have not taken this kind of an exam in a very long time and from the practice questions,...
  2. Not to be doom and gloom but will you reapply to the MECN or start another program if you do not make it this go-around? If another program- which one? I am going to the CSUN open house on April 25...
  3. Funny you should mention that- I was looking at the schedule of courses for summer at UCLA SON today and saw the epi class. It does have a lab. I too would like to take it online if that is...
  4. Any UCSF Mepn Applicants?

    Hi Everyone, I am new to this thread but am interested in applying to the UCSF MEPN program next application cycle. I am a bit overwelmed esp. with the breakdown of program into specialties. Could...
  5. Thank you for this information. I am glad I stumbled onto this when looking at the JHU SON website. My regsitration has been confirmed for March 15. I know some people are not able to go out of...
  6. Asherah- Is the GRE required for the accelerated BSN program at JHU? There is an open house for JHU prospective students this weekend in Marina del Rey- I just registered. I would so love to go to...
  7. Thanks Asherah- I am so glad I slapped some sense into myself, swallowed my pride and marched myself over to the SON. And I am glad it was in person too with my application carcass available for...
  8. I spoke with Dean Cardin today in her office. I would encourage anyone out there who was not accepted and wants feedback in order to reapply to the UCLA MECN program and other nursing programs, to...
  9. i just got the following information back from the licensing board- is this "second-degree program" a bsn? in order to take the nclex, one must graduate from an approved nursing program. however,...
  10. I appreciate this information. I wonder if the statement also applies to an MD educated in the US? That statement was under the section regarding training outside the US. I can see where a foreign...
  11. Sorry to ask so many inane questions but does anyone know whether you have to have a degree from a nursing program to sit for the NCLEX? For example, if you have an MD degree, would they allow you to...
  12. Hi BerryGood, Thank you for such an informative note. Any information you can send me would be greatly appreciated. Reading what everyone has written here, I am learning so much about what it takes...
  13. Hey Kids, Out of curiosity, may I ask what kind of volunteer work you did to prepare yourself for nursing school applications? And was it important to work closely with a nurse? I did volunteer work...
  14. Well-said Kathy. You are preaching to the choir with me. One thing that stands out in my mind about the information session I attended in the fall 2007 was the emphasis one of the students who...
  15. Thank you Asherah. Very wise and practical words indeed. This is why I wrote to Dean Cardin straight away after receiving the rejection (before putting the letter in the shredder ). I want to know...
  16. Pretzelpug is absolutely right- professional school tuition at UCLA and probably all UC schools has gone up dramatically. You also need to do a cost analysis of sitting out another year vs. starting...
  17. I hope you get a thick envelope but like you said, no one is hearing good news at this point. I wish I could be more optimistic. Maybe I should look into MSMC too- I feel a little burned out at this...
  18. Hi Kathy, It was a disappointment but not altogether unexpected. Are you going to try to contact the Dean? I have a very unique background which may have played against me- I am really curious to...
  19. Hey Everyone, I will be the first to say I got a thin letter today- yes, rejection. It was rather cold and impersonal- definitely a form letter- the office staff knows how to use mail merge that is...
  20. I am surprised you just heard about this- did you receive a notice that your application was complete? So does this mean that those who have not heard had some irregularity with their application...
  21. Does anyone have the nerve to
  22. Great you found a program that is a good fit for you- it is 2 years of your life. I wish you much success and happiness at USD. I will definitely put it on my list for next application
  23. Are you in the UCLA-vicinity? Shelli told me the last of the letters went out
  24. when did you hear? may I ask which school you chose to
  25. not yet here- anything there? I am getting a little worried being it has been sort of quiet here with no one checking in with news my sleepless night is catching up with
