'Thomas, I am starting to believe this as well. I did find an interesting article regarding this very topic. I think it is based on the region. Also, the last topic discussed in this article does point to a glowing factor. The nursing shortage wa...

Is anyone getting the feeling that they are done making calls for the wait-listed folks, with the exception of last minute drop-out situations or failed path/pharm and/or drug tests?

Thomas, good catch. Those numbers didn't add up for some reason. I suppose that is what sleep deprivation will do to you. Lol.

For those of you on the wait list, I found an interesting article on WFAA's website. After googling to find how many people are usually wait-listed, this is what I found - approximately 13 people. I don't know how reliable this info is, as it was ...

Ditto to all of your comments regarding your lack of patience and general disappointment. The only thing that is keeping me hopeful is that people are still getting called. I was worried all calls would be made the week before last and the only cal...

Ruby, Honestly, there is absolutely no reason why they couldn't have told us when they sent out the emails on April 20th. They took 3.5 months making their decisions and the waitlist certainly couldn't have been too terribly long. Many nursing scho...

Marie, I don't get it. It's very disheartening. My science GPA is lower than yours, but my overall is the same. I do have the bachelor's degree consideration. Honestly, I was shocked when I was even waitlisted, as the other folks on the forum have...

I am taking Pharm and Patho online this summer through UTA and my courses numbers are NURS 3365 and NURS 3366. Those are 3 hour classes. I think they just want to make sure you take them at UTA or through El Centro or Brookhaven (DCCCD).

Congrats Ruby! I wonder if there is some way you can notify the nursing department. That would certainly increase your chances even more so.

She had finished all her sciences with a 3.75 GPA. She did take 2 of them at UTA. Her overall was approx. 3.9. What is your GPA info if you don't me asking, for comparison reasons? Do they always notify people of any acceptance info on Fridays(...

Oh wow! That makes me so nervous. I am glad it is going to be sooner than later, but now I feel like impending doom is near.

My friend who was accepted to the traditional program (with one less B and no considerations -grrrr) was informed orientation will be August 3. I am assuming at that point, only a few will be called (no shows) What are you all thinking about the pr...

Sure thing.

I only applied to the traditional program. I'm not partnered though.

Thanks Nikki. It's nice to receive information that's directly provided by the "horse's mouth", so the speak.

Now for some specific information that will especially interest the waitlisted applicants. While waiting in the lobby for my advising appointment this week, I met another waitlisted student. She will be finished with pharm and patho at the conclusi...

I went to my advising appoint this week at UTA. My advisor never mentioned anything regarding immunizations or background check forms. My understanding is that they will require those steps to be completed once you are officially accepted. If anyo...

August 3rd is the orientation date for the on-campus program. Immunizations and background checks must be completed by then. If one has a DWI/DUI that has not been cleared from their record, they will be disqualified from entering. Also, I have a ...

I know this is random and a completely different path than nursing, but I am getting older and I am ready to begin my second career. I already have a bachelor's degree, therefore I plan to go to law school. I plan on getting a second degree while p...

After reading tygaa's stats(3.75 science, 3.65 overall), it is befuddling that she/he was completely rejected for both programs. Those stats are too similar to my friend's stats who was accepted. Many of you that are waitlisted have higher stats t...

I was waitlisted as well for the on-campus program. I have a 3.84 overall GPA and 3.4 science GPA. I have the additional consideration of a having a previous bachelor's degree. I am currently a UTA student, but I do not have the UTA considerations...
