University of Hawaii-MEPN PROGRAM...anyone heard about it?

[starangel2]

I'm applying for UH MEPN program for Fall 2009. Has anyone heard about the program? It's fairly new but I just want to know what I'm getting myself into...lol. I know overall, nursing school is tough but would like some feedback on the MEPN program itself.

Thanks!

Yeah I'm applying for 2011, I'm actually waiting to hear from PT schools that I've applied to but I've had a change of heart since I applied back in September. I've been working as a physical therapist aide for about 2 years, do you think the PT would be a good reference?

Sounds great, you may choice to address your change of direction (or have a thoughtful answer, if they ask).

I will be better able to answer your questions next month though

Crossing my fingers (because holding my breath hurt)!!!!

I am still waiting to get a call for an interview as well! This anticipation is killing me..good luck to us all!

btw, those who applied for fall 2010, what did you choose as your specialty track?

Also, could anyone please post if they get a call for the interview.!!! =)

Ped. NP, everyone else?

Ped. NP as well! =)

They sent an email saying they added two more specialty tracks. Did anyone choose to change their mind and go for the nurse admin or dual masters in nursing and mba?

Family NP....and no call yet. Good to see others are still waiting!

[AjBob]

I couldn't find any info on the dual prog, would I be able to get NP in ped's and a MBA in three years or four year track (after the RN)? The link didn't work and the site didn't have it under MEPN, so?

No calls yet seems odd, they want to hold interviews this month as well!

Is anyone an alumni or resident of HI?
