  6. UCLA MECN Fall 2011

    Ok so I checked on the website today and I was denied. I have been checking for a few days and it kept saying "submitted" I guess i didn't go all the way through. I needed to click continue then enter my password. Once I did that a copy of the denia...
  7. I was denied last year and I only got a letter in the mail.
  8. That's what happened to me last year... I had a bunch of questions and then they were all answered throughout the day. So, this year I asked them about themselves like why they wanted to be a nurse and how they got started. It was really nice getting...
  9. I sent thank you letters to the school I got into because they interviewed a lot less than Western. I thought if I sent them to western they might not get them.
  10. I'm pretty sure it is. I love everything about the school. Plus it's cheaper, way closer to home, and a closer cohort of students. I'm still considering Western but I still haven't heard anything from them and I have already started the process with ...
  11. Thank you dlrosen! I am super excited!!! I applied to Cal Baptist University, UCLA, APU, and Western. I got accepted to CBU. It's a Christian university just like APU or Loma Linda University. Anyone who doesn't get accepted this year for some reason...
  12. I just got accepted yesterday to an EL-MSN program at another school!!!! The program I applied to does not have a deposit fee which is very nice. The program I was accepted to begins this May, so it is coming up very fast. Still waiting for Western ...
  13. UCLA MECN Fall 2011

    I know me too! So I have heard that if you receive a large envelope in the mail from schools that's a good thing (meaning acceptance) and if you receive just a regular letter size envelope from them that's either a denial letter or an alternate lette...
  14. So I have heard that if you receive a large envelope in the mail from schools that's a good thing and if you receive just a regular letter size envelope from them that's either a denial letter or an alternate letter. Does anyone know how true this is...
  15. Wow!! Congratulations Maxpower! When was your interview with Western? Mine was Jan 29th and I haven't heard anything.
  16. My group had about 20 in it and we were divided into 3 groups. In those groups u rotate : interview, writing portion and tour. Every group does it in a different order. I had my interview first then the writing then the tour. They do have two session...
  17. I heard that they were actually interviewing that many people (250-300). They usually get like 600 applications total and then only interview the qualified applicants.
  18. I am also applying to Azusa pacific university, Cal Baptist University, and UCLA. If I don't get into Western or any of the other schools I will continue to apply to Cal State Fullerton and Loma Linda. Anyone else apply to the same schools?
  19. Hlu5 is exactly right about the writing portion. It's nothing to be nervous about at all so put your focus on the interview.
  20. Western said that they will not be sending out acceptance/denial letters til the end of Feruary. They interview all the cadidates then make a final decision on 55 to 60 students for fall 2011. They said they are also running behind this year because ...
  21. I didn't feel comfortable with my interview at all last year; however, I had one this year on Jan 29th and I felt really good about it. I really liked the people who interviewed me; they made me feel really comfortable. There are no right or wrong an...
  22. Oops that message above was for Sahra! My stats are 3.6 GPA (last 90 units) and I think a 3.4 in the prereq's. I have my bachelor's in Public Health. I also have 4 1/2 years of experience as and EMT in the emergency room (ER Tech). This is also my se...
  23. No, more like ... if you were in this position, what would you do? or if somebody did something wrong how would you handle the situation... stuff like that. Nothing about patients more just about your past experiences and how you would handle things ...
  24. Yey!! I have an interview this Saturday!!! I am so nervous. I do think it makes a difference on when you get your interview. I think the sooner you have it, the better. You never know though. If you have a later interview and you really impress them....

    Ya I know exactly what you mean. I just youtubed a lot of the information and watched videos of teachers explaining how to pull the main idea, topic and supporting details out of the story. I took teas 4 two and a half years ago and the reading compr...
