UTA Spring 2013

Nursing Students Texas (UTA)

Published

Hello everyone! Just wanted to start this thread for anyone planning on attending UTA's nursing program in the Spring of 2013.....

I am working on the last of my pre-reqs right now at TCC, but I plan on attending UTA this fall to take Intro to Nursing, Patho, and Pharm... Anyone in the same boat???

Thanx! I am partnered with JPS and my stats overall is 3.4 and science GPA is 4.0

Congrats bellenoirfemme and adadnanurse!!!

@mphillips I know how frustrated you feel! The first time I applied I got denied completely. In the 4 sciences I had an A and 3 Bs (I took all of them 15 years ago and didn't study a whole lot back then) I realized that I needed to get a job at a hospital (which was a hard choice for me because I have stayed home with my kiddos since the beginning. But this is a wonderful message to send them so we were okay with it!) I got a PRN position so I don't work very much :)Second, I knew I had to retake 2 of those Bs. I chose to redo A&P 1 and Micro. My 3rd B was in Chem but I heard that was worse than Pharm so I decided I would stick with my B. I didn't have them finished by Jan 5 so they didn't count for Fall 2012 application. I was furious. So, I went into that app period with no change in my stats. My science was 3.25And my overall was 3.8. I was waitlisted but never got called off. I hope this helps a little. I decided that the only way to make sure I would get in someday was those redo's. A couple years ago everyone who was partnered basically got in the first time around but now since the hospitals are hosting smaller cohorts they have to waitlist more. There are always people that get accepted and then fail Pharm or Patho and don't get to start. You will see an influx of calls to waitlisters right after grades are posted in Dec :) Fingers crossed you get called!!!!

Where is rubyredd? I figured they'd be all over this by now

Oh! Yes, where is rubyredd???

I got my Waitlist notification today for the AP program... I've got a 3.61 gpa with 1 consideration and I don't work for a partnership hospital.

I got waitlist also Don - crushed - so hoped to make it in!

@ adadnanurse

Are you going to accept the offer for the traditional program or are you going to wait and see if you got into the AP program?

Can someone tell me what the "consideration" is? Is it i.e. having a prior degree? What are the options for consideration? Who tells you how many you have?

I found the information - thanks

Well I haven't gotten a letter yet! So I'm thinking acceptance and waitlisted letters went out today and denial letters go out tomorrow! Uuugghhhh! I think UTA picks the top students whether you are partnered or not. If someone has higher stats and not partnered, then they'll get in over a partnered applicant. How do we know everyone accepted were partnered?? Congrats to those accepted and good luck on those waitlisted!

I got accepted into the On Campus program and wait-listed for the AP program. I am not partnered and have 1 consideration-prior degree. 3.87 science GPA. Praying I get the call for the wait list!

Lee, a friend of mine received her "no" letter today - so denials have gone out also.
