UW MEPN Hopeful - HI!

Published

I have been reading all the posts for a few months now and just registered today. I am considering nursing for a second career and am hoping to get into the Master's Entry Program in Nursing at University of Washington. It is a very competitive program and right now I am getting all my prereqs done, volunteer work, getting some health care related work experience.

I would love to talk to anyone who has applied or plans to apply to this program and get some pointers and suggestions.

Thanks, and hello to everyone!

Hello, I am new to allnurses and am looking into a direct entry program. I am curious if anyone knows anything about the University of Washington Masters Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN). I talked to the admissions and for the class that started this June there were 100 applicants and they only accept 20! Yikes! Are all direct entry programs this competitive?

I know UW Nursing is ranked #1 according to US News & World, but I am really curious to find anyone who may have applied to this program. I've read through all the information on their site but looking for inside information.:)

Thanks

Thread moved to Operating Room and Perioperative Nursing Forum since this is member's interest, plans to return to school, and needs feedback upon the field and educational pursuits.
