UCSF Fall 2021

Hi all!

I wanted to create a forum for those applying/alumni for any of the Nurse Practitioner degrees at UCSF. I'm applying for the AGACNP program next year (Fall 2021). Just wanted to get some insight into the program, what everyone's stats are applying, experience, etc.

I have almost two years of bedside experience (Cardiac-Telemetry & Trauma) and about a 3.7 GPA for undergrad.

Whoever attended the program, what advice do you have for prospective students? Any insight would be helpful! ?

I'm waitlisted for FNP. I don't think the admissions office would tell us the position on the waitlist, though, how do you guys think? So nerve-racking that there is a possibility at any time before the semester starts in September.

Hi! I just heard back from one of my clients (I do NP admissions mentoring) and they did tell her where she stands on the waitlist. But also, I'm wondering if they only do that with the people who are close to moving up off the waitlist? (Because she was given a placement in the single digits.) On that note, if anyone seeing this has decided to decline, please tell us here because we are both eagerly awaiting news!

Hi All!

I got accepted into UCSF 2021 PNP-AC program as well as Vanderbilts PNP-AC program for fall 2021... 

I live and work in central CA; need to maintain at least PT work to fulfill my financial responsibilities. 

I know is mostly online with concentrated blocks of in learning in TN throughout each semester. I am trying decide what program fits best. Anyone have any insight on UCSF's program vs VANDY and how the curriculum, length of study, tuition compares? 

or any thoughts.. at all.. 

Much appreciated! 

 

Hi There!

I came across this thread and was wondering if anyone could give me someone info on UCSF AG ACNP program. I’m getting all my ducks in a row to apply for the next cohort and wondering if anyone can give me a review of the program and how the like/dislike it. Thank you so much!

Hi! While I can't speak firsthand about the student experience of UCSF's program (Penn grad here), I'm happy to answer more admissions-leaning questions here or in DMs. Just didn't want to leave you hanging. Hopefully current students will reply soon to give you more of the info you are looking for. I have two former clients who are starting there next month. I will encourage them to revisit the forum once they do. ?
