   Have any of you applied to the pediatric NP program? I spoke with the director a few months ago and she said they will be reviewing applications in March but I'm wondering if anyone has any idea when they'll be releasing decisions? I'm reluctant to e...

   I'm almost positive that the committee met on Thursday and their goal was to make a final decision on Friday. If there's a delay I'd say it's probably because you guys are all very well qualified.

   I found out on valentine's day last year via email. The email came in around 8pm east coast time. Hang in there!

   Vikss - I am currently in the MEPN program. I'm not really sure what percentage of interviewed applicants are accepted in the end. I honestly felt like it was the only interview I've ever bombed in my life and I know a lot of other people who got in ...

   The interviews are not arranged by specialty. The school interviews local people first and those coming from out of state on the later dates. They're also deciding the time of your interview based on faculty availability. Don't freak out about the in...

   The schedule through the MEPN year varies a ton. In the first quarter you'll all be together in Nursing Fundamentals, Pathophysiology and Pharmacology. Lectures are M and W from 9-4. On Tuesday's you'll be learning skills in sim lab and running simul...

   Honestly, I would just enjoy your free time right now. During the MEPN year you'll have approximately zero free time, so live it up while you have it. It is an accelerated program but it's doable. As for things like pharm, our class was kind of a dis...

   Hey Mammal, I think the main thing to remember when it comes to the interview is this: if the school offers you an interview, they already know you're qualified, now they're trying to figure out if you are the kind of person they want to work with f...

    Hey! I'm a current MEPN. Just wanted to say good luck to all of you guys! I know it can be a long wait before you hear anything from the school, hang in there! And just a little heads up - interview offers are mailed in very thin envelopes that will ...

    Does anyone know approximately when they mail decision letters? I'm waiting to hear from the UCSF mepn program (just interviewed two weeks ago) and I'm trying to figure out the timing for all of the other apps I have out there.

    Just joining this thread now...I'll be interviewing on January 30th. Did anyone on here, besides myself, apply to the health policy program?
