UCSF MEPN 2019

Published

Hello. I recently attended the UCSF MEPN information session and I am really excited about the program. I am still finishing my pre-reqs and I want to be as ready as possible. Anyone else out there looking to apply for 2019?

Also,I would love any advice on rounding out my application for PMHNP.

Stats:

Undergrad theater major 3.3, Science and Pre-reqs (prob) 3.7

GRE Verb 48th %tile Quant 30th %tile Analytical 18th %tile

Work Exp: 10 useless years in the film business and then 3 years Admin at private practice and hospital

Volunteer: UCLA nursing, Suicide Crisis Hotline, Veteran's Administration Domicilliary

LOR: Prob only 4 really great ones. Is not sending 5 a bad idea?

I would love to hear from you!

Good luck everyone! We're almost there!!!!!!!!!!

I have a question... for the personal history statement portion, is anyone writing about experiences that informed your decision to attain graduate education (on a general level) or a specific graduate program (MEPN in our case)?

I submitted my transcripts already just to know they would get to the right place. So far, each one has come in. I'm just trying to get this sent in by the end of the month so it's early.

Is anyone already close to sending in their apps?!

Do you get an e-mail verification if it got sent in or do you have to call UCSF Nursing Affairs? I just requested the transcripts and I'm not 100% sure how it works.

Halfway! We still have a month left :-)

Hi Everyone,

I will be applying for the Advanced Public Health Nursing Program. I was torn between geriatrics and public health and decided that public health will be a better fit for me. Almost done with my goal statement and personal history.

good luck to all.

The transcripts will automatically populate in your application when they are received. I requested the official ones be sent to UCSF because even if I submitted the unofficial ones, I'd still have to submit the official ones right after. I didn't have to call!

Does anyone know if submitting applications early has any benefit? or if just sending by September due date is okay? I know some programs like medical school, the earlier you apply the better.

Applying for the AGPCNP track. Just sending my regards to all of you applying now. Has anyone uploaded transcripts and request official versions sent? It was hard to tell if they expect one or the other.

For your experience, are you guys just copying and pasting from your resume verbatim? I wouldn't know how else to say the experience again as I highlighted my accomplishments in the additional background info section.

I don't think it has any benefit, I'm going to be submitting mine maybe 1-2 days before the due date.
