2013 UCSF MEPN Applicants

Published

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to apply for the 2013 cycle of MEPN at UCSF (application date would be September 1 of this year). I'll be applying for psych/mental health, and it will be my first time applying to this program. I was wondering if anyone else is out there who is applying for the 2013 cycle. I'm hoping we could share encouragement and tips!

Also, there's a thread for 2012 applicants- definitely check that out too. :)

Okay just looked into. I'd need to take a couple more prerequisite classes in order to qualify... (intro to psych though I did take life span development, speech, communications...) ehh. I'll be crossing my fingers for all my other schools now! I wish UCSF wasn't the only California school I'm applying to.

So... should we all expect to receive our rejection/request for interview letters during the first week of December, as has happened in past years? I don't know if their protocol has changed.

Bardone, I'm curious too! I was thinking it would be the first week of December like past years. I'm surprised we don't find out a bit sooner since their deadline was so much earlier than the rest.

bardone, I was wondering the same thing. I just heard back from UPenn (I believe I saw you in that forum too) and it made me wonder about UCSF.

I was at the American Public Health Association annual conference in SF in the end of October. I spoke to someone from the UCSF nursing faculty and all she said was "in the next month or so." So not much info there...

SF State only offers RN though right? Not NP. Am I correct?

I think you're right that SF State offers only a BSN.
