I agree with punkydoodles - I applied one day before deadline (I know- cutting it close!) and made it in. I would like to think it had something to do with my application essay - as I spent days and days writing it - but I honestly don't know how the...

How did your BACC2 program go? I am about to start in January!

I just got into UTMB BACC2 and I am soo excited to start in Jan!

I encourage everyone to join the facebook group! we just have 16 people joined so far- and i know there are more than that accepted into the program! private message me for the link if you cant find it- i will be happy to give it to you!

What is the typical timeline after finishing clinicals to taking NCLEX to getting license and a job?

When I was down there driving around lost.. someone mentioned a red building.... either "big red" or "old red"?? can someone enlighten me on this?

okay good to know! I still haven't gotten an email but I did accept on MyStar... so I am going to consider myself accepted until someone tells me otherwise... YAY!

What did you find out? I went to my mystar account and ACCEPTED admission too- then my hear sank as my account said "incomplete" afterwards!!

Amanda- I am (hopefully) going to move down from the North Dallas/Frisco area - if you want to go halfsies and use part of the moving truck- it can definitely be arranged! Plus- if you want to meet up for lunch or something before the move- I am up ...

Thanks Chewy for the info! I am still anxiously waiting for my invite- good to know there is still hope. Also- How easy was it to meet people? I ask that because thats the main reason I want to live on the island is to be around other students...

Well you must just be that awesome! Congrats What were your GPA/TEAS/etc?

That's awesome! I'm curious- why would someone get to skip the interview?

When did you interview? Are you for BACC2?

Interview went well- they asked me a question about sugar and taxes that I didn't expect- but other than that, things went well! After going down there and looking at housing- living by myself is going to be a little steep! 1 bed places around campus...

Thank you for the interview questions! Also- what are the housing options? I am looking for an apartment or condo to live alone or with a room mate! I would love some good apartment names to check out while I am down there Thursday!

This week has gone by so slowly- and no interview invites! How is everyone else holding up? I am taking microbiology right now- so I stay very busy- but all of this studying would soo be worth it if I would hear back from UTMB!

I just used the ATI study guide and did okay for myself. I used the pre-tests available and then brushed up on the subjects that I was clearly still fuzzy on. The most important thing to do is not to psych yourself out- everything on the TEAS, you wi...

Thank you so much for the insight! It is greatly appreciated

I haven't heard anything yet... How did you get it in writing that your application was complete? I just got verbal confirmation.

I was told that they wont even finish reviewing applications until the end of July...

I am about to start nursing school and I cannot seem to find any information about what I can do post-grad. What will be my options once I graduate with a BSN? Will I be able to go straight into working in the ER, or do I need experience?

That sounds really exciting! What made you interested in ER? Can you compare and contrast it to your other clinical rotations?

What is a nurse apprentice exactly... and where do I sign up? haha

I am really interested in what you do- I have worked in ERs for a few years and my favorite department by far working was in a Level I! Can you elaborate more on your position and what experience/credentials are needed? I know I may change my mind l...

Everywhere I look- I find "We are not accepting applications from new graduates at this time" Did you find work in an urban, suburban, or rural area?
