I got an email and my portal changed, with a checkmark and the option to accept or decline. Once I paid my deposit, it went back to the green circle saying "complete".

Oh really? I already made one. XD

I’m pretty shocked I got in, especially as I’ve learned more about the school. Just worried I can’t hack it.

I had the opposite experience- I have to communicate via email (living in South Korea with an international phone number and a 13 hour time difference), and he agreed to that... then never responded to another of my emails. I got into somewhere I prefer over Ursuline, though, so it doesn't really matter.

Thanks! I'm deciding between there and another non-TX school, but I'm relieved to have an acceptance.

I was accepted to UTMB for Spring 2020.

This thread is full of people who got denied, myself included. My science GPA was a 4.0 and I got denied.

I didn't actually study for it. I had a very strong background in all of those subjects, and I literally tutor in most of them.

Accepted as well! BS/MS in Biology. No healthcare experience. Cumulative GPA: 3.44 Prereq: 3.83 Prereq Science: 4.0 TEAS English: 91.7 TEAS Math: 100 TEAS Reading: 95.7 TEAS Science: 100 TEAS Cumulative: 97.3

You can retake that course anywhere, as long as it’s accredited. Retake policy varies by school, so be sure to check on that.

How were the class averages? If they're bad, she'll probably curve. If they're fine, then it sounds like everyone else is managing and you need to adjust your study techniques. Also, just from my experience (taught A&P lab for years and helped with the lecture+exam design), what students think "this wasn't in our notes" is usually an application question intended to get you to apply what you've learned. Students tend to focus entirely on memorization, then complain when a university-level class that's a prereq for healthcare professions asks them to think.

For those of you who didn't get into UTH for the Fall, how are you dealing with the rejection? I feel like such a failure- Houston is my hometown and I desperately wanted to go home. I just wasn't good enough. =(

I’m interested in Ursuline’s SDAP! I’ve just had some trouble finding information about it, such as how competitive it is.

CONGRATS! I followed your application for summer since we had very similar stats. I know it’s been a long journey for you, and I am super happy for you.

I was rejected as well. Cumulative GPA: 3.44 Prereq: 3.83 Prereq Science: 4.0 HESI: 98.29 (I think 100 on Anatomy, math, and chem, 98 on vocabulary and grammar, 96 on bio and reading)
