Hello, I have a silly question. For the MPN portion of the degree, are we conferred a Bachelor's of Science or a Master's of Science? Thank you!

Neither - it stands for Masters of Professional Nursing.

@honey_oolong Thanks!! That's what I initially thought as well, but I read somewhere that it's a BSN so was a tad confused LOL.

Did anyone apply with the deadline extension? Wondering when we should expect to hear back....

 I applied the end of January. But haven't heard anything yet. I know they said roughly a month

YAY!! Hope to see you in the fall 😊😊

Hi everyone!! 
I'm admitted to the MPN/MSN program starting in August 2025. I would love to chat with some other admitted students who have accepted their offers! I want to look into housing and I'm thinking sharing an apartment with a member of the cohort would be fun and useful for studying purposes. I'm graduating in June from Uc Santa Cruz and have never lived on the east coast before so I'm a bit nervous LOL! 

Specializes in Medial ICU.

Hi! First and foremost, congrats on getting accepted to this amazing program!

I also applied for MSN FNP however was rejected w/o making it to the waitlist. I'm hopeful to reapply for next year and am now looking into areas where I could improve. Could you share some of your academic information?

Mainly, what was your GPA like and did you have any extracurricular activities like research?

Much appreciated for any insight you could share!
