Surely if one of the holds that was added is entitled "admission documents" you've been accepted contingent on getting all of these documents to them right?
-

I've got the same question! ...and did everyone who had their holds changed get accepted? I just noticed that mine were changed and I'm really really hoping thats good news!

Congrats to you guys!!! I am super jealous right now =) My prereqs are not completed yet, I am taking two of them right now to finish up and my transcripts say they are on file. I don't know tho I'm still trying to figure out my stupid TSI

So just curious, when did you guys submit your applications and transcripts? Was it right at the due date or earlier? I'm just wondering because it seems like my UT link is never going to be updated, it STILL says that my TSI is not accepted. I have literally called about 12 times and been assured that it is fine, so I guess I am just freaking out. What makes me even more worried is that my transcript evaluation said that they did not have my TSI either. I had a transcript sent to my house to make sure that it is on there though, and it was. I guess they just haven't gotten to mine, it feels like I have been waiting for 6 months! =)

You don't get summers off, in fact they said during their information session, that the big break between application acceptance and the start of the program is to "prepare your families", for the program. I don't know about you guys but I have a two year old daughter so its going to be tough if I get in. I already have no life lol not sure how much worse it can get.

I picked it because of the reputation (top 10 in the country) and the location--> both the fact that it is in Houston and I need to stay put for my little girl and the fact that it is in the medical center which seems like an ideal place to start if you want to go into the medical field.

Okay I am really starting to get confused here. Not that I doubt anyone's info, but its starting to be really conflicting. I just emailed the registrar once again, to check my TSI (ONCE AGAIN) and included a question about interviews being held. Hopefully they email me back quickly and let me know. For me personally, doing away with interviews is a big help, I think. I have a great GPA, but NO experience at all. It stinks for those of you who have really useful experience though. I don't know but I guess we will find out soon! For the sake of my sanity I pray that it is REALLY soon!

I didn't apply anywhere else either! I can't stand the waiting game its killing me, probably even worse because I don't have a backup plan. I wanted to just do the best I could, keep my GPA perfect, and get into my first choice school. LOL hopefully that thinking process wasn't too idealistic.

I'm not sure about the transcript eval. I received one though and have not completed all 60 hours. I have called the registrar numerous times because my UTlink also says that my TSI is missing, and they assure me that is it okay. Yesterday the woman I talked to said that they don't pay as much attention to that field as they should, and she sounded annoyed. I'm not sure what that means, but if you know your TSI is on your transcript you should have nothing to worry about.

I talked to the registrar AGAIN today and they said everything is fine. I guess I'll stop worrying about TSI and stalk the mailman! ooohhh the anxiety...
-
Fall 2011 UT Houston Health Sciences hopefuls
Thats good to hear, but the transcript eval that I got says the same thing that it is still missing. I've called since I received it and they told me it was okay so I don't know what to think?

Does anyone's UTlink still say that their TSI hasn't been received? I've talked to the registrar like ten different times and they assure me that it is okay; but I'm still paranoid! I even had an official transcript sent to my house last week so that I could look at it for myself and make sure my TSI is on there, and it was! (= My status says that it's pending approval so hopefully that is true.

Hey guys, I got my transcript evaluation in the mail yesterday and I'm super frustrated! They still don't have my TSI and calculated my GPA weird. Does anyone know what I should do to satisfy the TSI for UT. I know I've got it because I would not have been able to register for statistics this semester if I wasn't "college level" math. I'm freaking out about this whole thing though, how do I prove my compass scores?? Also does anyone know if they calculate classes that you have retaken differently than just replacing the old score with the new. I got a B in 3 different classes and retook them immediately after receiving the semester grade. So, on my transcript both grades are present, but the B has an asterisk next to it since its been replaced with an A. It isn't affecting my science or prereq gpa but my overall undergrad gpa is listed as 3.8. I know a 3.8 isn't awful but it's really annoying because I worked ridiculously hard for all A's.

I wish some of the registrar would randomly decide to be overachievers and finish all of the transcripts--like tomorrow, then start the interview letters. I hate waiting! chaos0058: Thanks!! I'm still paranoid but I think regardless of what UT link says I am going to be paranoid =)

I talked to the registrar today because I'm still paranoid about my TSI status on UTlink and she said that it's fine for it to say it isn't received and that when they start looking over transcripts it will be adjusted. I don't know if that means they just haven't looked over the hundreds of transcripts they received at the last min. like mine or if that referred to all the transcripts in general. Anyhow it didn't seem like the process was moving very quickly.

nursing program with children at home
Very well put! My hat goes off to you! I only have one child and completing my prereqs has been an incredible challenge. Many of my books are torn and tattered from my daughter demanding attention during my studying. I don't think anyone will understand how hard it is to go to school with kids until they try it. Thank you for the tips though I really appreciate it!!
