University of California, Irvine (UCI) Master's Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN) Fall 2023

Published

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 ?

Any thoughts as to when we will hear back? Based off the past few years, it seems like people get invited to interview, have about a week to complete it, then hear back as to if they were admitted / waitlisted the Friday of the following week. 

Crossing my fingers we hear back today! It's all I can think about LOL

This may sound a little stalker-ish ? but I noticed you reading 2021's thread; but I know that cuz I was doing that too LOL! I also think it's either going to be today or next Friday at the latest. I jump a little every time I get an email notification haha

LOL! The forensic analysist in me always has me looking for patterns LOL. I received my interview invite 01/20 at like 2 p.m. ish. Hopefully we will hear something back today.

I also got my interview invitation on 1/20 at 1:54pm. It seems like people received acceptance notifications at around 1-2pm?! 

Do we get an email or a call if we get in?

I have read instances of both. I don't know why they call some people and email others without calling. Did we fill out a preference in communication when we completed our apps? I don't remember LOL

Hi all,

I am just as anxious as anybody else here. Curious, were we all assigned a UCI student ID and UCI Net ID? I have both, just wondering. Anyway, I hope we hear back today...if not, VERY SOON! Best of luck everybody!

I think so! I have both as well. However; not entirely sure if that was always there or just recently updated.

Same. Kinda hoping it wasn't there before. Ahh, wishful thinking, ha. Good luck to you! 

I got one as well. Everyone got one? I can't remember from last year's thread if everybody got one. 

the wait feels so long haha ?

I also have both. I think the general consensus was that it was issued for everyone?

I got them early on before I even interviewed. I also emailed them earlier this week about when we should find out our admission status and they said late Winter and for some after second round of interviews
