Hi y'all, I am a newly graduated nurse with a BSN. I have worked in research and research administration for the past 10 years. I just completed the accelerated BSN program and attempted to find some sort of ER or OR nursing position but the market...

This was a great article! I have goose bumps! I am starting school in May for my BSN as a second degree student. I got my BS in Community Health Education years ago and the only position I have ever loved was my internship in which I had one on o...

gg - congrats on getting in. if you don't have your shot records, you can have a serum antibody titer to show that you have been immunized for the measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella. That is what I will probably have to do because I cannot eve...

Congrats Aggiehorn! I knew you would get in. Love Texas good luck!!!

Awesome! I just sent a request to join the group!! yippeee! I totally agree that a happy hour is in order! SO EXCITING!

I interviewed on January 19th as well.

Thanks y'all for responding and giving me your input. I have scheduled a time to go in and talk to the university staff about this issue to make sure that I am making the right choice. THANKS!

I am at a crossroads. I have just been accepted to an accelerated one year BSN program at a great University and I just learned from my boss that I am most likely to be promoted to a higher position in my current career. I don't know which way to t...

Congrats to all who have been accepted so far!!!! Here are my stats: Overall: 2.94 Science: 3.5 Nurse Prereq: 3.351 NET: 82 reading 97 math - 90 composite I thought with my horrendous overall gpa would be my demise...

Mya2bRN - thanks for being blunt and picking up on that comment. It's not that I do not like people, I think it is that people can affect me so tremendously at times. They intimidate me and can cut through me with their words, especially when they ...

I dream - I am sure you will make it! I believe that people will be finding out if they are in for the next few weeks. From reading past threads, I saw that it was like a trickle of people finding out on different days. PLUS, they have to go in a...

Stadley, check your UTLINK status. It's under admissions.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL! I am still in shock! Totally didn't expect to hear anything yet!

I just checked UTLINK and I have been granted provisional acceptance! AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

Yeah, I think that they let you know if you are accepted before they send out the admissions packets. This is what I gather from reading past threads as well, Lovetexas. So I still am holding out for March 15th for when they start letting us know i...

bach09 - volunteering as a medical assistant I would think would be GREAT experience for this. I would say that you definitely have that going for you. By the way, where were you able to volunteer as a med assistant? I work at Methodist and I trie...

I am so nervous that I will not be accepted. My overall GPA is horrible: 2.943. What in the holy monkey was I thinking when I was in college?? My science gpa is 3.5 and my nurse prereq gpa is 3.35. I got a 90 composite score on my NET though and...

nevermind...just talked to one of the staff and the HESI is not required for us. I am just panicking a little!! :)

hey y'all, were we supposed to take the HESI as well? this was not one of the requirements at the time that I applied...

This wait is killing me!!! Even though I know that we will not hear anything until late March, I still check my UTLink every day. How pathetic! I feel like I should be calling and emailing the UTHSC SON staff every day about how badly I want into ...

Well I called several times and finally spoke to someone about the transcript evaluation so they should FINALLY send me one within the week. I am taking Philosophy, Art Appreciation, and Govt II since I didn't do so well in the second Govt in colleg...

Hey y'all, I have a couple of questions for you. I have been trying and trying to talk to someone about my prerequisites for at least a month now. I finally got someone to help me. So...my question to you is, what visual/performing arts elective d...

Yup! That was you Aggiehorn. Blonde hair in a pony tail. It is good to have a face to put with a name. GOOD LUCK! I am obsessively reading everything I can. Did you say you were still completing some prereqs this semester? I had totally forgot...

Yes, she asked me the same about my A&P's. Those were hands down my favorite classes. I took mine at A&M and she said that all of the Community Health Ed majors from A&M did very well in the program. I hope that is a good sign because ...

Aggiehorn, I was there yesterday too and like you, I felt that the interview went well. Today, I am going absolutely insane and this is only day one of waiting! I have to admit that I have already obsessively checked my UTLink to see if there was a...
