Hi all,
I had seen a discussion thread last year for students who applied to UCI's MEPN program and I found the comments really helpful. Maybe by connecting we can see when invitations to interview are sent out. ? I did see that UCI was expanding its MEPN program this year which is exciting!
A little about me-I am pursuing nursing at the mid stages of my life. I have a degree in Health Education and Health Promotion and community health nursing is my aspiration! Hope we can connect!
I am also throwing my hat into other degree programs- CSUF, Golden West, Saddleback, Vanguard. Basically anywhere that fits my goals and budget ?

I do! I volunteered at a hospital near my campus when I was an undergrad and more recently, at Kaiser as a COPE Health Scholar. I also do research full-time in the clinical research field.

I received my interview invite on Friday! I am so grateful but nervous to take it. Are you guys accepting the invite once you're ready ? or did you accept it before?
I plan on taking mine tomorrow but not sure if I should have already accepted it?
You don't necessarily need to accept it in advance. But you also don't need to be afraid that clicking on the link and accepting the invite would start the interview process, cuz it doesn't!

I also applied to UCI and completed my interview yesterday. Hopefully we hear back soon. Last year, my friends that applied heard back within a week. How's everyone doing?
Hi! I also read about the fast turnaround post-interviews from previous years' threads. The next 1-2 weeks are about to go real slow for me ?

Oh wow that's good! I applied to UCD, UCI, SFSU, and USD. I made it to second round at UCD, UCI, and USD, but honestly I'm not good at interviews. I'm hopeful, but I'm not expecting much.

I wish you the best of luck! I'm not gonna lie -- watching my videos for this UCI interview made me aware of all of my habits that I didn't necessarily want to made aware of LOL
