University of California, Irvine (UCI) Master's Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN) 2022

Published

Hello all! 

I didn't see a thread for UCI MEPN 2022 so thought I would create one. At this point, the work is done and applications are submitted...but there's plenty to still agonize about (the 3-5% acceptance rate, for one). Does anyone have intel on whether there will be interviews, and if so, when they might be? The website says acceptance notifications will be sent "starting in March", but I haven't found anything else more concrete.

Thanks, and hi!

When you say you haven't gotten anything from UCI, does that also include an interview request?

Oh nice Congrats! Sounds like you're having a better time than me haha

Thank you! I'm sure you'll get good news sent your way soon!

I am a recent graduate and graduated with a physio major. I graduated with a solid GPA and started volunteering during my second year of college. I just feel like a typical applicant haha!

Nice, pretty much on the same boat here except my GPA was mid  ?

Ooh best of luck to you! ?

I applied to Azusa Pacific, Western U, UCLA, and UCI.

I got into Azusa and got an early acceptance opportunity invite for Western U. I have my fingers crossed for UCLA!

I got into APU and waiting to hear back from UCLA, although feeling discouraged since I didn’t get an interview for UCI. Which school is your top choice? Are you declining APU since they expect deposits ASAP? 

Random question but I assume we need to get CPR certified before nursing school right or does that happen once we’re in? I noticed a nursing school back home saying you need to get certified before actually entering their program so I don’t know if that’s all schools. Anyone else not CPR certified yet? Like it didn’t say we need to do it or anything now right? I don’t see anything on their page.

I don't think we should worry about that till we get in haha! Just will add more anxiety. 

It feels odd that some of us are getting assigned a UCI  student ID and receiving email about financial aid. Shouldn't we get into the program first LOL?

Just out of curiosity have any of you applied to MSMU's ABSN program?

I am currently applying now...I put them at the bottom of the list because they have those 3 Lace classes I haven't taken ?

My life is full of suspense as I wait for admissions to decide.

Did everyone get assigned a UCI net ID username?
