UC Davis MEPN 2021

Published

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!

@Charlotteee @RN0928 I appreciate your responses. They have helped me in trying to figure out where to go and how much to spend and what to prioritize when it comes to school. I actually wish there were more brutally honest opinions about all schools on this forum because sometimes this info just isn’t out there; and, when out there, often times that info is sugarcoated. So thank you. 

As for me, I still have some thinking to do before making a decision because my situation and wallet are telling me to slow my roll LOL. I’m in my late 30s w/ a ton of debt BUT I do want my MSN/RN asap. That 18-month program length is enticing! And the UC Davis name is nice too and I’m DYING to attend, but prestige is not at the top of my list atm.

Are we suppose to apply for FAFSA and GRADPLUS loans, or FAFSA then GRADPLUS loans come later? (If you're not 100% committed you might not want to apply for GRADPLUS just yet because it will mess up your credit). 

Wondering since "Deadline" is March 2.

Is anyone having trouble checking their awards due to duosecurity? It doesn't seem to let me register a device.

For those accepted, when on the Application Status Portal, is anyone else seeing Awaiting for Establish Computing Account? I'm a UCD graduate, so I already have an account.

I am having the same issue. It says that my phone is not compatible.

I'm not sure about the computing account questions, but I couldn't fix my Duosecurity in time for the March 2nd deadline. I hope there are ways to access it because it seems that it may be a system issue on their part. However, it does suck because I can't access my rewards/loans offered at all.

Hi everyone, 

I've been comparing tuition for the entry level master's in nursing programs offered by some of the UC's in California, and was wondering if anyone had a clue as to why UC Davis' tuition is significantly more expensive than UCI and UCLA's tuition for the similar program. Is there something special/different about UC Davis's program that I'm missing??

UCD: ~110K https://health.ucdavis.edu/financialaid/coa-son.html

UCI: ~63K http://reg.uci.edu/fees/2019-2020/nursing.html

UCLA: ~61K https://sa.ucla.edu/RO/Fees/Public/public-fees

 

Thanks for the help!
