UC Davis MEPN 2021

[Te751]

Hi everyone!

I'm starting this new thread for those interested in applying to UC Davis's Master's Entry Program Summer 2021 program. Hoping this will be a space where we all can ask questions/connect.

Hope you are all staying healthy!

Does anyone know if those who emailed them and accepted their spot on the waitlist will get a response confirming your acceptance of the waitlist?  

 

I got a confirmation back

Does this cohort currently have a FB group? If not, does anyone know how we could be invited to previous groups for questions such as financial aid, working while in school, job outlook after graduation, etc?

I do know someone who got accepted while being on the waitlist. What's scary though is that no one knows their spot, but also, no one gets immediately rejected until the start or even a month into the program (there's only one person in the previous and current allnurses AND PA forums for UC Davis that admitted they were rejected). At this point, it's just a waiting game.

I am also waiting on more information from the school. From what I've heard, I think the current cohort creates a FB page for the upcoming cohort.

Seems that 2021 is less active than the previous threads but I hope someone from previous cohorts does make one so we can connect with students who have experienced it.

What’s the timeline for UCLA? I believe you have until mid April for Davis.

I would wait before making any decisions cause you have some time at least. 
what are your stats by any chance?

@Te751Hello! Graduate of the UCD MEPN program here and yes, the current cohort typically creates a FB group for the incoming cohort in the Spring to help with any questions about the program, supplies, etc. and they included the info on the group in our Welcome Packet, which was sent out in February. The Welcome Packet will have a TON of information and should answer a lot of questions about the program. As far a working during the program, I wouldn't recommend it, but we did have a handful of people in our who worked part-time/on-call. Hope this helps!

Hello@RN0928,

Do you recall if any people from your cohort were accepted off of the waitlist? It seems as thought there are huge number of people waitlisted every year and very few (if any) ever get off of the list.

@nursecap I don't know an exact number but I believe there were probably half a dozen people accepted off the waitlist. The deadline for people offered admission to accept or decline was mid-April so many of them didn't find out until then, but I think it just depends on how quickly people make a decision.
