University of San Diego (USD) MEPN

Hey just wondering if anyone else has applied to the mepn program for next fall? I have but don't think my chances are great. I hold a cumulative 3.2 G.P.A., although all A's and two Bs in the prerequisites. I also competed 190 units so I've taken very hard science classes and hope they take that into account, I also graduated with deans honors and a 3.8 from with my bachelors. I also do many extracurriculars and have worked as an emt and an ED tech to hopefully compensate for my below average G.P.A. what are your guys stats and if you'd like to share what other schools are you applying to?

Oh gosh, I matched the wrong sociology course(an upper elective one, not the intro), should I call them and ask if they can update it since I am unable to anymore? I hope it doesn't make a difference! 

I matched a wrong course as well and called them about it, they pretty much said there's nothing you can do since it's already submitted that way but they'll see all your classes regardless.

Hi!! 
I got invited to their interview day for USD MEPN program for the Fall 2025 as well. Any idea what they mean by "group interviews"? How are you preparing for that?

Hi @noril530 ! I got invited to interview to I am super excited and nervous! I spoke to a current student and she said the group interview when she did it consisted of break out groups in a sense; so there were 5 candidates and 1 interviewer per group. (I hope that makes sense LOL)

I applied to UC Irvine, western university, UC Davis (I got rejected), Samuel merrit, USF, and USD. Hoping to get into at least a program. I've only heard back from UC Davis and USD so far. @Joshua Till

Thats so strange you got denied from UC Davis, I never understand how admissions work at times. Ranking wise, USD is higher than UCD I believe. USD was my safe school and my top two were UVA and Columbia and I got a full ride to UVA so I accepted, although I am waiting to hear back from Columbia. USD is a great program but its major appeal is also due to it being in San Diego so they get numerous applicants, it's amazing you got in, take great pride in that! Don't be discouraged by the other admissions but I'm sure you'll get in the rest!
