Hello! I'm a pre-nursing student hoping to start in the UTHealth Cizik Pacesetter program for Fall 2025. I'm starting this thread to connect with other pre-nursing students aiming for the program, as well as current students who might be able to answer our questions. If you're comfortable, please feel free to share your stats, questions, comments, or any concerns. We're all in this together, and hopefully, we'll be celebrating our acceptance together!

I think it basically means we're on an unofficial waitlist at least until the first batch of admitted applicants accept/decline their offers🤷🏻‍♀️I submitted early and mine says that so we're just playing the waiting game until decisions are finalized

I think so too, but I would've thought the second round of admits would've been notified by now since the first round gets 10 days to decide, and it's been about 18 days since they first sent out admissions.

Are u 100% choosing UTHealth over the other school? It's so hard to decide for me but I think it's just because I'm scared to leave Houston 😩

Same. I submitted my application around December but sent an updated transcript a few days before the March deadline

I only applied to UTHealth or UTMB, and I've already been accepted to UTMB, but I would choose UTHealth over it, if given the chance.
