Hey all, I thought I would set up a place to discuss the next application period for UTA's Fall 2012 nursing program. There was so much info in the Spring 2012 forum, thought it might be helpful to start a new thread...
Post away!

Hi guys! I've been following this thread for a while and I decided to comment. I'm extremely nervous about Friday!!!! I was completely unaware of the partnership thing. I am originally from Houston and was hoping to be in that area. Does anyone know if location is factored into their decision because as far as I know there is only one hospital in the Houston area

Not sure about Houston. I'm not partnered either. When I originally called and spoke with someone about the AP program she basically told me I would be accepted no problem. I'm not sure where in the world she came up with that answer??? But that's why I pursued this program and now I'm seeing the chances of being accepted without a partner are slim to none.....I'm a little upset. All my eggs are in this basket and now I'm wishing I would have applied for the traditional program too. If I don't get accepted this time, I'm applying again but for BOTH programs. Is it Friday yet?! !? !? !?! ?!

Friday can't get here fast enough! I hope there aren't any glitches that delay the process. I've applied to several programs and this will be the first I hear from. So ready to figure out where I'll be next year. My patience has worn off completely! Good luck to everyone! Let's hope Friday is cause for celebration for all of us!

This is driving me nuts! LOL! I got accepted into TCU and today I found out I got accepted to Navarro's ADN program. I am hoping we really find out from UTA on Friday so I can let the schools know I will not be accepting the slots. I am so nervous!!!

One more day down one more to go. It helps me to get on here just to see that I'm not the only one going through the stress of waiting, and even though I know that emails are going out Friday - I keep checking my email with hope that maybe they are ahead of schedule lol (yeah right). I only applied to UTA so I hope I don't regret that decision! I hope everyone gets into the program they have been working so hard for, especially because grades only go so far and to be a great nurse doesn't mean you made A's in all your classes. Too bad those of you who have prior experience don't get some sort of bump (I don't have any). You would think that any type of in hospital experience like LVN or CNA or anything that familiarizes one with the situation would be an added benefit. Good luck everyone.
God bless.

No email this morning! It's funny that I have checked my email every morning since I have been a student at UTA and not once felt like I was going to vomit until this morning! This wait it torture...it will be even worse if the email isn't there by saturday like we are all expecting! Are any of the new posters partnered with THR?

I cannot wait. I am so nervous to find out my status. I feel like I am on the lower end with my stats. I applied on campus with a 3.69 overall and a 4.0 science. I am so flipping nervous.Any one know the vaccinations that are required for UTA?
I think they are hepititis B, varicella, tdap, mmr, tb.. They are the basic shots u need to have to be in a nursing program.

I have been constantly checking my email like every 15 minutes. I sure hope they send the email soon. I'm getting nervous as the minutes pass by. My GPA isn't the best, they are in the low 3.0 range in both science and overall. But I have 2 considerations, I am partnered and I have a BS in Biology. So I hope that helps. Anyone on here Partnered at Parkland Hospital? Anyone???? My advisor say they only have 10 spots for Parkland employees, I pray I have one of those spots!!!!!
