UCLA MECN 2023

[almostmsn]

Hi! Just thought I would create a new topic for all of us applying to UCLA's MECN program this year ?

Hi! Good luck with the application!

Does anyone know if the recommendation letters have a different deadline than the application itself? I think I saw on the website it said references have until Jan 15 to submit the form but I don't know if this is updated info.

Hi! I went to their latest info session and they let us know that our LOR's have a Jan 15 due date! Good luck on your application!

Hi everyone! Wishing you all good luck !

I have a couple of questions.

1. Are we supposed to include labs for anatomy, physiology, microbio,chem,ochem, and biochem?

2. What did you write for the courses you're currently enrolled in

3. How did you fill out the Intro to Inorganic, Organic, & Biochemistry Part?

[AspiringNurse1810]

1. I don't think we have to specify labs for those courses in the application?-- not 100% sure though! I would just check the course you took with the approved prerequisites on the UCLA MECN website:

**check here -->: https://www.nursing.ucla.edu/admissions-programs/programs/MSN-masters-entry-clinical-nurse-mecn/mecn-prerequisite-courses 

2. I would leave the 'currently enrolled in' section empty if you're not currently enrolled in any course or have any in progress-- I think that section is just for any classes that you're still finishing up?

3. I just listed Chemistry 14B (taken at UCLA) as the course for that requirement.

Hello everyone!!
I’ve got some essays to write and GPAs to update but after that I should be ready to submit. Hopefully we all hear good news! Really hoping my personal statement goes into consideration. Don’t have the best undergrad academic history.

Just finished applying! Do we know what the acceptance rate typically is for this program?

Good Luck to everyone. I'm throwing caution to the wind and reapplying for 2023. I was #32 I believe on the alternate list for Fall 22, I ended up being #11, wow! I hope this gives hope to anyone that falls on the alternate list, there is hope. Unfortunately, I didn't get in but I never thought 20+ people would fall off the list for whatever reason.

Does anyone know when we should expect to hear back/get interviews/official admission decisions? 

[Bellatrix888]

There's no interview. Just based on previous years, we should be hearing from them during 2nd or 3rd week of February
