UCLA MSN 2019

[Ayo RN BSN]

I am applying for the UCLA APRN/ MSN for Fall 2019. I am applying for the FNP program. I decided to create this discussion page as an avenue for other applicants to share their application process and also to serve as an update ask.

Wishing you all the best with the application process.

Thanks for the encouragement ?

Do you mind telling me what was the letter of your last name?

I got an email from Rhonda that I am being recommended by the school of nursing for admission to their graduate division for the FNP program on 3/5/19 at 3pm PST and my last name is L

Just got the recommendation to be admitted! ?

Congrats! Which program did you get admitted into? Do you mind telling me the first letter to your last name? I’m wondering if they’re admitting based on alphabetical order of last names.

For everyone who’s wondering, I got tentatively admitted to the FNP program with the following:

BSN from UC Irvine GPA 3.59

Float Pool - 2 years experience

Psych - 1 year experience

Daisy Award Recipient

1st generation college student

I have a really good relationship with my manager, supervisor and charge nurse so I assume they wrote a strong letter of rec for me. I would say I’m an above average writer and spent over a month editing and proofreading my statement of purpose. I also attended their info session back in September.

Good luck everyone still waiting to hear back and congrats to those who received their admission recommendation email!

@VXM Shoot. Totally missed that... I figured I wasn't eligible! I didn't really consider grants/scholarships/fellowships until the e-mail. Hopefully it's not too late under these circumstances.

Hang in there @Pushing_Daisies My last name begins with the letter A, so I thought maybe that might be the case! (Plus I had JUST got done reading previous classes' DB posts and that was one of their theories).

@jaylesso24, thanks for sharing your stats. I'm having some impostor syndrome going on... That helps to confirm, I think I'm OK! Ha.

Looks like older classes started an FB page, shall we?

Thanks VXM for that information and congratulations

Should we start a FB group? Previous classes have done so.
