  1. UCSF MEPN 2016

    OK super nervous now. Starting to doubt everything I've written and definitely feeling the pressure. It is due on September 1st, not by September 1st right? So tomorrow, not by tonight at midnight...
  2. UCSF MEPN 2016

    Thanks for that info! I remember reading that too, but couldn't remember where and was starting to doubt I had read it in the first place. In that line of thinking I also recall that recommenders...
  3. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I'm thinking of it as: an undeserved group is usually a community, but a community is not always
  4. UCSF MEPN 2016

    There is some overlap, but I'm planning to talk more about my experience volunteering at the hospital for the undeserved populations portion. With the LLS group the focus isn't necessarily on those...
  5. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I'm not sure if this is exactly what they're looking for, but I'm planning to talk about my experiences volunteering with a local non profit, that focuses on raising money for LLS generally, but more...
  6. Columbia ETP 2016

    Just got back from the info session on the 14th- for anybody who was there I was the one in the red jacket up towards the front of the room. I did ask about the residency portion of the DNP and...
  7. UCSF MEPN 2016

    Yep- personal statement, goal statement and the additional experience statements.... makes it difficult to figure out what to say
  8. Columbia ETP 2016

    When you apply for the MDE you can apply for either the DNP or PhD too. If you're applying for a doctoral portion, the application deadline is earlier than if you were just applying to the MDE...
  9. UCSF MEPN 2016

    Update: I emailed admissions to ask about stats. I'm not sure who said five years, but they confirmed via email there is no recency requirement for statistics for this year's cohort. They do recommend...
  10. Columbia ETP 2016

    It's the essay section- it falls right under the academic section and is right above the letters of rec
  11. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I don't recall seeing that on the website anywhere either, and I know I specifically looked because my last stats class was in the spring of 2010, so I'm wondering if that will count. Re: Recs, when...

    thanks @emara9
  13. UCSF MEPN 2016

    In filling out the pre-req portion of the application, does anybody know what they mean by unit? I am under the impression it is supposed to be the number of course units, so Nutrition would be a 3...
  14. Columbia ETP 2016

    @minttea90 which info session in August are you going to? I'll be there for the one on the 14th, if you're at the same one maybe I will meet you there! I am finishing up my last pre-req and taking the...
  15. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I have an outline for both but haven't started really writing yet. I saw on one of these forums a distinction that's been helpful in shaping them: the goal statement should focus on why nursing is a...
  16. Columbia ETP 2016

    Looks like they've updated the information online. I'm headed to the info session on August 14th- anyone else
  17. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I don't think they offer rolling admissions, but it might be worth asking admissions? Thanks to all who have shared their backgrounds- I think it helps to have a better idea who we are applying...
  18. UCSF MEPN 2016

    It looks like you can only select one specialty
  19. UCSF MEPN 2016

    It's
  20. UCSF MEPN 2016

    Thanks
  21. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I think stats from last year's accepted pool would be really helpful (though also a little intimidating). Do you know if it is common to apply a few times before getting
  22. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I'm on the east coast too! I'll actually be in SF the first week of September though- it'll be too late for application help, but maybe I'll get some helpful information to share. I'm applying to the...
  23. UCSF MEPN 2016

    I haven't seen the MEPN application as an option yet either. The site does just say July though, not July 1st. I would think if it's not up today that it probably won't be up until next week or...

    Thank you! That's very helpful
  25. Columbia ETP 2016

    SO helpful! Thank you
