I know it is harder said than done, but for those of you still waiting, don't worry or give up hope just yet. I know many students who heard much later down the road about getting in, even a couple of people who got rejection letters originally got p...

Congratulations to those of you accepted. Enjoy your euphoria for a little while, you have earned it! But be prepared come January to stay BUSY! First semester is a BOOGER.... Trust me I am doing it right now.... Have y'all created a FB page yet? If...

Hey there Spring applicants. Evals come for some but not all. Don't even stress about the yellow triangle... It MEANS NOTHING! Some people, such as myself, had green circles from the start even even though they had not finished all the pre-reqs. This...

desjt - Yes I did have one C from MANY years ago, like 04 and it was in Comp 1. I also originally failed College Algebra and got a D in psych... I was more concerned with my social life then. I retook all but that C. So if you have a retake, they do ...

In answer to your question desjt3 - I believe that with UT Health I had a green circle the whole time. And I was still completing my final 4 pre-reqs. Some had the triangles that got accepted, others had circles. It did not play a part with admittanc...

Hello Spring Applicants. I know that y'all are all stressing right now, I was in your shoes just this past spring. I feel your pain, but I can tell you that it was worth it for me. If you go the the Fall 2012 group, I was an ACTIVE poster, always fr...

Hey everyone!! Sorry I have been MIA for a bit. Things have been crazy this summer Congratulations to those who have been accepted off of the wait list!! :yelclap: That is awesome news and I look forward to getting to know each of you over the next ...

cheaters, no matter what profession they are going into, eventually have "karma" catch up with them!!! i have experienced my fair share of cheaters in my nursing pre-req classes over the last 2 years. it drives me crazy! when the "slackers" try to g...

Apparently those of us accepted have not been told yet which program we were accepted into....

FYI - the CPR you will need is the BLS for healthcare providers. Get it through the AHA (American Heart Association)

If you can, start doing some of the things that are going to be required. Go ahead and get your CPR, & all your immunizations lined out. Also try calling the school and seeing if you can submit for a drug screen or background check, just in case....

Phanlange_Angie - That question is going to be better asked on the FB wall. And someone actually answered that question on one of the posts.......

Well to those of you who were wait-listed, I have release my spot at UTMB. Congrats to everyone who got in and good luck!!

I made an 860.

Jenwilke - Before you give up your spot, trying talking to someone in financial services. I know that there are all kinds of loans out there and LOTS of scholarships at the school. Have you filled out your FAFSA yet?

Prayerful - First off Thanks! Just explain... They are really understanding about bad semesters, just explain in your personal statement whatever happened, be it you majored in Beer 101, family problems, financial issues, life in general. They know ...

Hi there. I got into UTMB for Fall 2012. I am turning down my seat there to attend UTHSC this Fall, but I can possibly help y'all out. UTMB puts a LOT of emphasis on the personal statement. It is suppose to be 700 words - tops, and it is your chance...

You should only get the one email telling you that you were accepted into the program. I got mine before I actually accepted. As for what helped me decide why UTHSC was the right choice for me, well there are many reasons but they are my reasons. I ...

Thanks! The FB page has a lot of information that will help answer any questions you might have and help guide you on this journey.... This way you are not taking this journey on your own. Cannot wait to have another face :)

Congrats btw!!

jimbee - Please join us on the FB page :) Search for UTHSC SON Class of December 2013! See ya there!

Amymit - what is your application status at? Green circle? Or a triangle? I'm curious bc I'm almost wondering if those of you in limbo (no letter, or email) are on the wait list.......

Julianne - That email freaked me out at first too. I guess it is aGeneric email notifying everyone to check.

Did anybody get an email saying " Update to your application - Check now"? My status hasn't changed (I just checked), so I am wondering if it is a program automated email to everyone.......
