I'm considering MEPN application to the UofA next year. I've been in touch with the advisor, Chris Sogge, for the past 3 years. I have a B.S. in Computer Science and a M.Sc. in Biology from Canada . Chris said that I need a pre-req GPA of 3.7 at least to get into the program; mine is 3.3. Do I stand any chances? Did anyone get in with lower pre-req grades? I'm trying to juggle pre-req taking with a toddler. Thanks so much for your advice!
I just recieved it 10 minutes ago so they are going down the list to see if anyone wants to swap. The advisor told me over email there is quite a few they placed in Phoenix that wanted Tucson. Hopefully you get a spot!!
Has anyone completed all of the immunization/health record? I have a doctor's appointment next week and am just wondering if page 10 of the onboarding packet is the only thing we need to take with us for the doc to sign.
Did you guys see the email about the proposed tuition raise!?!? If you’re from out of state it would got up $15,000. In state up $4,000 ?
I just saw that... which I am from out of state so I am not thrilled about that news... I did not consider that tuition could increase so drastically...

I think so but they will need to order blood work and tests so they won’t be able to sign it until the results are back. At least that’s my thoughts. I have my dr apt next week too.
Okay so this is a desperate last attempt to reach out to anyone who got a spot in the Tucson cohort but doesn’t already live here! I was one of the many who applied with “Tucson Only” but received a Phoenix spot in the program. I’ve heard great things about the Phoenix cohort and everything the clinicals portion has to offer compared to Tucson buttt my husband is stationed here in Tucson for the military and does not the have option to move to Phoenix with me, meaning if I accept the Phoenix position we’ll be long distance for the 15months of this program. SO my point in posting this is to reach out to anyone who is specifically moving to AZ for this program to see if they’d be willing to accept a Phoenix position instead of a Tucson spot! I know the accept/decline deadline was yesterday but the advisors said if someone wanted to switch they’d work with them.
(also disclaimer idk where I fall in the “rankings” so obviously if this post gets someone to switch and someone else who wanted Tucson is in front of me then they would get the spot so this is basically a desperate attempt for all of those who are wishing for a Tucson spot lol)

Oh hey, I'm desperate as well lol. I was offered Phoenix but can only do Tucson as well and I'm pretty devastated.
