  1. UTHSC (Houston) Spring

    encephalon7 replied to katybusymom's topic in Texas Nursing

    Fortunately, alm, UT is OK with retaking classes once. More good news, classes not pertinent to the nursing program (i.e. anything other than the prerequisites) are not taken into consideration. Which...

    They stopped doing interviews as of Fall 2011. I attended the Sept 2011 info session. Supposedly, it was a "waste of time". They review GPAs and test scores to find the top 80. Nov 15 is the day they...

    Fall 2011 (no interviews) reported seeing hold changes (a sure sign of acceptance) on Mar. 2, 2011: Fall 2010 (had interviews), holds began changing Mar. 30, 2010: Also, feel free to click the...

    Right. So it should be sooner for us. If you look at Fall 2011 (no interviews) they found out 2 or 3 weeks before their 2010 and 2009

    It is interesting to note that on Nov 1, 2010, SerenePeach posted: And several hours later on the same day: I'm assuming she was checking periodically throughout the day. So they updated UTLink...

    I really believe we won't be waiting until Nov 15 for acceptance letters. For Spring 2010, they were told the same thing (on Nov 2, 2009): By Nov 4, 2009 (2 DAYS LATER), their statuses were being...

    Thanks, katy, you too. Sara, I was wondering the same thing. But I decided if I don't get in this semester, then I'll take Patho and Pharm at HCC just to get a jump start on those courses for the...

    Ahh, you must be taking 8 week courses. My final for Sociology is next week also (it's an 8 wk course). Then I just gotta ride out the semester with Stat and Lifespan. Almost over; then the REAL fun...

    My god, it's so logical and efficient. Other schools should really follow their example. What was the other school you applied to, other than UTHSC and UTHSCSA? AND would you move to San Antonio if...

    encephalon7 replied to katybusymom's topic in Texas Nursing

    WOW heavyk, that's awesome. I'm sure you'll get into UTHSC with your stats. Did UTHSCSA have an interview/writing sample? Either way, that turn around time is killer. I'm hoping UT- Houston will have...

    I said P and 21st but it was actually P and 19th - right behind the Hotel Galvez. It's a purple carriage home that's been converted to 4 studio apts. Super awesome and the land lords are chill. If you...

    Apts are so cheap on the island, moving there would be EZ. My old place was $375 per mo. Seriously. With a view :) *I'm not telling you this because I want you to not go to UTHSC, lol. I'm just fond...

    Ariel, I have two friends who are enrolled at UTMB and they absolutely love the school. They say the profs are so helpful and if you're falling behind, they meet with you to help you succeed. My...

    I know the letters won't be mailed out until Nov. 15, but I'm sure they'll update our stats on UTlink sooner, as they've done since atleast Spring 2010. LOL. Deep breaths, katy! You must save your...

    I host at a certain restaurant in Houston and the other week I was taking this girl to a table and she looked REALLY familiar. Long story short, we had A&P together @ San Jac and she just...

    Seriously. If they're already handing out the denials, acceptances are coming soon.

    encephalon7 replied to katybusymom's topic in Texas Nursing

    That's terrible, but this isn't her only opportunity to get into the program. Fall 2012 deadline is coming up! I have told myself if I don't get in, I may cry, it will really suck, but I'll try again...

    @ftrnrs2011 totally agree with heavy. it doesn't matter as long as you still met the 40 hr min. as the admission folks said, having all 60 prereqs completed does not give anyone an advantage. people...
