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 ?

^I have the exact same question

Hi everyone 

I’m a MECN 1 and I got in on my second try. If anyone has any questions let me know. I’ll be as transparent as I possibly can.(:

Hi! What aspects of your application changed between the first and second try? 

[MimiCal]

Hi @n.rin

My Resume changed. The year before it had little to no healthcare experience. And for the 2021 application I was able to put that I completed 200+hrs of volunteering at a hospital and got licensed. 
My personal statement I felt was stronger the second time as well. I think they saw how much I did within a year and I believe that helped me get in.

Has anyone received an update regarding the status of their application?

I did! They just reminded me that some of my recommenders are still pending letters and to send my prerequisites after I finish the class this quarter.

If we have courses that are still in progress, does anyone know how we are supposed to enter them once grades post in December? It doesn’t look like there’s a way to go back into the application once you have submitted. 

Did you ever receive an answer on steps to take?

I believe we have to have our official transcripts sent to --------------------- electronically. They mention it during one of the info sessions recorded on YouTube.

I received a notice early December that my application has been received and is complete. We should hear about our admission status by end of Feb.

I also needed to send over my transcripts and I emailed admissions, you can email your unofficial transcripts to one of the three admission counselors listed on the nursing website ?
