UC Davis MEPN 2017

Published

Hi all,

Anyone applying to the UC Davis MEPN program starting 2017? I'm finally taking the plunge and applying to masters entry programs/ABSN programs this year after being out of undergrad for nearly 3 years.

Looking forward to starting a conversation and hope we can use this space as a media to offer support to one another!

Thanks for the info bro22! Ahh okay around 200 people left for 32 spaces. This really is a major round 2 of applying!

Hello everybody!! I also got that email! That's so disappointing that we have to go through the stressful applying process and the horrible wait again! Is that for sure what they did?? Or just hearsay?

I'm also working on the essays for the secondary application and have been struggling for a week. I agree with everyone that there is major overlap with the essay prompts on NursingCAS, so I've decided to use parts from my NCAS essay in the secondary one. The hard part for me is that within the secondary essays, there is overlap. The Statement of Purpose asks us to talk about our interests, specializations, and career goals, but then there is a separate essay on Future Interests or Goals. Then the Personal History Statement asks us how we are prepared for success in grad school, yet the Statement of Purpose also asks us about our preparation and motivation for grad school.

How are you approaching all this overlap?

I just submitted my supplemental application. Now the nerve-wracking waiting just started.

Now days will be like: (breath in – breath out – refresh email) x 1000 times a day.

Good luck to all applicants

Anyone know if UCD looks at the applications in the order in which they were received?

Just a guess, But I think UCD just came back from winter break, So maybe they haven't even looked at our finished secondary applications yet. Like I said just a guess, I believe the email we have received stated we would hear in Feb or early March. The waiting game is the pits.

I got ACCEPTED and also got a Scholarship!!!!

So excited the waiting is over

I am over the moon! I just got my acceptance letter.

Congrats! I got accepted as well :) Such a relief. Where are you guys from?

Congrats to everyone! I received the acceptance letter and scholarship as well. So excited to work with everyone through this program. I'm from Chico.

Congrats to everyone that got in! I've created a facebook group for you. Some of us in the first cohort found it helpful to make some contacts and friends prior to starting the program, and I think that will be great for you as well!

The group name is:

UC Davis MEPN Cohort 2

Search for that on facebook and we'll approve you.

Again, welcome to UCD!
