Yes, experience most definitely makes you more competitive. Being a UCLA BSN or MECN is also in your favor, as they know you survived one round, you have proven yourself, and you are a safe gamble for...
Hey guys, I know the wait is horrible - I was in your shoes last year. Our deadline was Dec 1st, and I got my acceptance email on April 28th (the first week everyone got acceptances). I remember we...
Ohhh that's tricky, but they are young enough to not be as affected as say, some junior high school kids would be (ie. make new friends, etc.). The baby won't even know it's in a new city haha. It is...
