@Valgee713 whoa, you have tried for so long. I really hope you get in. ❤️

I haven't gotten any updates. I'm in the Austin cohort. ?

Does anyone known when the second pool of acceptances will be sent out?? I'm thinking it's this Friday.

@NicoleO congratulations! Do you mind if I ask what your stats are? General GPA, science GPA? Do you have your CNA, BLS, and medical terminology completed? What is your medical experience? Are you a Tech alumni?

@Alycia I'm in the Austin area. @BSN2022sgs since you were already accepted, could you tell us to which cohort?

@BSN2022sgs thank you for getting back to me so quickly and congratulations! ? have you gotten your immunization requirements submitted? I'm guessing the first round of acceptance went out (I clearly wasn't in that round) and after September 22nd, I will probably hear back if I'm accepted. Phew. OK well good luck to everyone.

For all those applying for Spring 2022... I just realized something and its possibly the reason I haven't heard back yet... I didn't get my fingerprints or background check done yet! Has anyone else?? Oh lord. I can't believe I haven't gotten this done. I have completely forgotten to do it since the interview. Please let me know if you got it done OR if you haven't gotten it done but already heard back from Tech. Thank you! Hope to hear from you soon!

@BSN2022sgs this is so exciting! I haven't heard back yet. I have a GOOD feeling I'll get in because all of my ducks are in a row (ya know what I mean ?). But we'll see. I'll comment here as soon as I hear from Texas Tech. Congratulations to those who've gotten in so far, I'm excited for you!! Crossing my fingers for the rest of us ?.

@BSN2022sgs were you notified of your acceptance already??? I'm still waiting to hear back.

@allipalmerHi Alli (and anyone else enrolled in this program), hope I'm not bothering you and you can answer whenever you have time... I was looking over the degree plan for this program and noticed there isn't any real science based classes (besides pharmacology) such as physiology or pathophysiology. There isn't much science based courses during the program is there?? It's more nursing concepts and day to day situations. Correct? The reason I ask is because I would be overwhelmed if the exams were science based like Microbiology and pathophysiology. But it seems that isn't this. Please let me know. Thank you. I'm also nervous about this program because I do well in classes where there is an obvious review/outline to follow for exams but you don't get that with this program. However, I might still do well if it's more concepts and common sense than scientific. P.S. has anyone heard back at all from the program??? ? ? I want to hear baaaack.

@allipalmer do you have any hard copy books? If you have both e-books and a hard copy book, which ones do you find more useful. Also, has anyone heard anything from Tech?

@allipalmer thank you for sharing this information! I would gladly buy the books from you! ? @allipalmer would you happen to be done with your chronic care book?

@Futrn94 and @allipalmer could you tell me the book (and workbook if applicable) you guys use for the chronic care course? And so far, which classes do you find the most challenging? Thank you for your help. Hope to hear from you soon.

@KizzieKae I got an email about an interview as well!!! I’m soooo excited!

@drewerin thank you for your input. It seems like a hard program but you guys keep saying it's doable. Can you tell me...how many hours do you put into this program a week? Is it 60 hours? More or less?

How do you know what to concentrate on when you are studying if you don't get reviews half of the time??? Can someone please answer me this? I'm used to having an outline or study guide for chapters before being tested on them. @drewerin @allipalmer

Hmm..I'm an independent learner as I have taken online classes for year now. What worries about the recent posts is that it was mentioned that the program does not offer any lectures or slideshows, just books. I can handle that, but do the professors at least give you an outline on the points students need to concentrate on when reading chapters? Or are there questions at the end of each chapter in the textbook that you complete by yourself? I have usually had some type of outline or study guide to concentrate on before a quiz and/or test... is that not the case for this program? It seems like half of the time you'll have a study guide. Please clarify. Thank you.

I'm too excited to wait! Has anyone heard back from Tech? ? ?

@allipalmer and anyone else who will and has graduated from this program….if you are in the Austin cohort, do you have a graduation in Austin? Or back in Lubbock?

July 15th…deadline!! Good luck everyone! So excited!!

@Nicci808 we should learn in the beginning-mid August if we get an interview. And I believe they said they would let us know if we were accepted by late September. If I remember correctly. Anyone else remember something different for the Q&A?

Could anyone tell me how many years it takes to complete the PMHNP program (BSN-DNP)? It says 9 semesters full time but I am not sure if that includes summers.

@wannabnurse123 the 3 weeks long is full time. Every day of the week. I believe she does have weekend classes for those needing to complete it part time.

@wannabnurse123 check out Central Texas Nurse Network Inc. Address: 313 E Rundberg Ln STE. 208, Austin, TX 78753. They are a bit different but I adored Veronique. Reminds me of home :). It's about $900 for the course and it is 3 weeks long. I applied for the Austin cohort 2022!! Good luck to all applicants. We can do this! ?

@allipalmer Alli! I want to thank you for always being helpful! ? I recently applied for January 2022. Good luck to all those applying!! ?
