Is anyone applying to the Fall 2012 program ? I have a few questions and I think it would be good to share our concerns regarding the application process here.

I am a preschool teacher and I am applying for 2012. Have very little healthcare volunteer experience and wondering if that really maters. I have some experience looking after a family member who had a stomach surgery and chemo.

oh! I had no idea. I couldn't come up with anything when I searched for it originally. Is it open to the public? I found a ucla mecn 2014 page, but thought a fb group would be more practical since you can upload docs, etc. I'll try looking again.

Hey There Current MECNs & Los Angelites,

I have a logistical question and would be super grateful for any insight:

I am relocating to L.A. for school. I have an opportunity to live cheaply with old friends on the East Side of the city (Silverlake area) and I'd love to avoid living with strangers at the beginning.

I am no stranger to the L.A. area, but not sure how brutal of a commute it will be to Westwood from the other side of town..?

After over a decade car-free in NYC, I am also hoping to take public transportation/van pool/bike as much as possible, to have time to study en route to school. Do you think this is doable? Are there many commuters in the MECN program or do most live in/near Westwood?

During the first few terms, are you on campus more than 4 days a week?

Grateful for any/all thoughts and best to all!

Hello everyone!

Does anyone if the wait-list has continued to move pass #35? I tried calling on friday but (4/20/12) but couldn't get through

Also, does anyone know if there are any outstanding schools that have not yet sent out correspondence to their applicants?

Thanks guys!

Hi! Anyone looking for roommates near the area?

Chappie,

I'm car-free in Los Angeles. If your place is along a major bus route it should be no big deal to commute across town. It's only $1.50 to ride the bus here, way cheaper than NYC. It's also really safe. You can do it!

Best,

MK
