It's that time of year again! I am planning on applying for the Fall 2019 quarter. The summer 2018 information sessions are now open. Who else is applying ?

Hi! I was accepted into the MECN program this year and planning on taking the Epi class starting in June at UCLA. I couldn't find the facebook page for some reason!? Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Out of curiosity, does anyone know how many applicants there were this year?

I was wondering the same thing! Haha

Welp, just checked my email yesterday (can't believe I missed it when they sent it out last week) and I'm waitlisted--#24, so my hopes are definitely not high. Looks like I'll be widening my scope next application cycle. I'd really like to not leave SoCal if possible. What other (similar) programs did people apply to?

Hi all, I just want to ask if there are any re-applicants this year and got accepted? What did you do until the next cycle opened to strengthen your application? I was rejected for this cycle so I would like to start early to have a higher chance for next cycle. Thank you.

Having a bit of trouble submitting the SIR and SLR. It says that the link on the official letter will direct you to where you have to go but mine only directs me to the myUCLA page. Can anyone help?

****EDIT**** I figured it out, thanks haha

Hi! I received my acceptance letter as well. However, I'm still in the dilemma of choosing between a couple of schools. I was wondering how rigorous the curriculum is, and is it true that many students end up dropping the program due to the rigorousness?

I was able to reach out to someone who was in the most recent cohort because I also had this concern and she says that only one person dropped out and it was due to a personal issue. She says that the professors are very supportive and try to do what they can to help their students to succeed. Also she mentioned that sometimes someone can be put on a 3 year plan rather than a 2 year plan if they end up failing a couple of classes. The professors really want to give their students as much opportunity as possible. Overall, I think if we go in with the mindset of giving it our all and wanting to succeed we will be just fine. :)

Oh goodness! This makes me feel so much better. Thank you so much for this information!!
