UofA MEPN 2021

Published

Hi there. I am applying for the UofA MEPN 2021 program this Fall, and thought I'd open up this thread for others also applying at this time.

A little about me - I was originally going to apply for the 2020 program, but delayed it a year due to the birth of my youngest in late 2019. I have quite a bit of healthcare experience before the birth of my children, as well as volunteer experience in other areas. I haven't taken the HESI yet, but my stats are 3.5 (last 60), and 3.8 (prerequisites). I have a Bachelors degree in Biology, and am *really* hopeful to make it into this MEPN program. My goal is to be a Nurse Practitioner ? One of my aspirations is to serve impoverished communities in third world countries.

Would love to hear from others, and open up dialogue regarding questions and general advice.

Best of luck to all the 2021 candidates!

Hi guys!! I got into the Phoenix program! I’d love to start a facebook group for the Phoenix cohort (and get to know the Tucson cohort as well) so please add me on facebook and message so I can make one!! My facebook is Jessica Elisabeth, and my picture is a picture of me in a black shirt (blonde hair) with my fiancé behind me kissing my head LOL. It’s the same as my picture on here! Can’t wait!!

Hi there! I will be in the Phoenix cohort, as well, and would love to be part of the Phoenix FB group (and get to know the Tucson cohort too) ?  My name is (EDITED)- pretty sure I'm the only one out there, LOL ?  

Hi everyone. Just wanted to shout out a huge congrats to everyone who got in! ? And to those who were declined- hang in there ❤️ Examine your GPAs and healthcare experience, and maybe retake some classes and/or sign up for healthcare related volunteer work? Your journey to nursing doesn’t have to end here. Alternates, there’s still hope for this cohort- as a previous cohort student said, several alternates were offered a spot in their class, so maybe it will be true for ours.

I set up a facebook PHOENIX group for anyone interested ... it’s called “UA Nursing: MEPN 2021 Phoenix”. I literally just created it last night, so it’s pretty bare, but I’m excited to get to know everyone! ? My name is (EDITED), btw, but you can call me (EDITED) for short ?

Hello everyone, 

my name is Tun Nef.
I liked the idea of Sangeeta ☺️? So, I created a facebook group for TUCSON cohort called “UA Nursing: MEPN 2021 Tucson”. Anyone who’s interested, please feel free to join

@Amy H and others who applied for BSN (Tucson & IH/Gilbert) - did you hear anything on that one ? Just curious , seems BSN is running two weeks behind MePN. Please share anything or if you are aware of ? Thanks in advance.
