   The BACC2 director (for us it graduating in Dec. is Dr. Al-Arabi) will send out a Spring semester calendar sometime in the beginning/middle of December. Be aware that in January and March you will be there more often for Health Assessment and Adult 1...

   CLaker replied to laura.c.j's topic in Texas

   The days on campus really varies. Anytime you're starting a new course that has clinicals, plan to be there 2-4 extra days for skills labs. Also for Health Assessment, which you will take in January. So some weeks you will be there 3 (usually not 4) ...

   I am also in the 2011 BACC2 class with JThig, and I just wanted to reinforce a few things he said to you guys. I would say the biggest thing you need to know about the program is the online format and how little interaction you have with the faculty...

   Yeah, it was just listed in the middle of the list of my loans and only said "Salute to Nursing". That is what the fundraiser is called that UTMB holds every year. From what I've heard/read, th "grant" is supposed to be given to all BACC2 students.

   I was wondering if anyone checked the financial aide portal recently and noticed the "Salute to Nursing" grant that is posted? I'm assuming that this is the fundraiser grant that's given to the BACC2 students, but this year it only appears to be for...

   Update on log in info for the Financial Aid portal: I emailed UTMB and was told that the man who is in charge of granting access is out today, but that they are switching over to a new computer system which is keeping him extremely busy. No date on ...

   I'm in the same boat as greengold. Still waiting for my login info. Enrollment services emailed my form to security on Friday, so I figure if I don't hear back by this Friday, I'll give them a call and post if I find out any new info. FYI - On my fir...

   The non-disclosure form is the same one that is in the acceptance packet, so if you've already mailed that in they will contact you via email when they process it. If you haven't sent it in yet, either fax it to the number listed or you can call enr...

    Thanks lexi loo! I was just able to accept. I'm so excited to meet all of you in January! JThig and hrphan- Keep your hopes up! There will be many that don't accept their invitations, so hopefully you'll hear something from UTMB after Oct. 28th.

    Hmmm...Legally, I don't think that there's anything they can hold you to at this stage, but I'm not a lawyer. It probably doesn't thrill UTMB when people do that, but I don't know exactly how much of an imposition it is for them. I'm pretty sure that...

    The background check was $48.71 back in July, so I would assume it would still be about the same. My econnect is still the same. Were you guys able to accept your invitation yet?

    CLaker replied to CLaker's topic in Texas

    Threads from previous classes said that it took several days for the econnect acceptance to show. But when it did, it shows up as soon as you login. It takes you right to a screen that makes you accept or decline, so you don't have to hunt through ...
