I do not like the changes to this website. I no longer see my account information on the righthand side with favorites and email link, etc... It looks like the removed a bunch of

zilamakus, I think what that person told you is spot on. People admitted to the ABSN are supposed to be competitive and "good students". To not complete the program has probably more to do with lack...

What Majorette said is key... I believe in overpreparation as well. I find that overpreparation is the only thing that reduces test anxiety. If you have the subject matter literally mastered, then...

If you scored a 73.3% on the online ATI practice test, then my guess is that you scored pretty well today- I hope! I mean that online test was brutal. Did you score above 80% on the real test? I...

I received an email: "ALL accelerated/fast track students will need permission codes to register for classes. I will be sending those out next week." So I think we just need to be patient and wait......
LoyalWeim replied to jadasimons's topic in Texas Nursing
Possibly, but we are supposedly guaranteed a spot in the classes. Our classes/cohort are specifically for the Accelerated track students. I believe we will start the fingerprinting and background...

Good luck in your program, JuliaRaquel! On another note, it seems that I am open to register for classes at myUTTyler however, it seems to hang when I select the class to register. Nothing happens,...

JuliaRaquel, Yes, there is a waiting list so if you plan to turn it down then I would do it as soon as you can because there are some who are anxiously waiting. Did you choose a different university?...

(Sigh) I just signed up for Facebook just to join the group and it said the "group is closed" or something.... Are you guys using Facebook? If so, please post another link, please. Thanks,

Sorry it is a bit late for me to respond, but for future reference anyone that does not seriously focus on the ATI study manual is probably in for a rude awakening. I studied three different manuals...

Yes, I had the TB screen, DPT, and Flu shot done on the same visit. I wanted to just get it done although I would have much preferred to space them out a few weeks at a time- not because of bruising...

Whew! I think I have everything completed for paperwork except for the fingerprinting and background check! I managed to squeeze in the drug testing today! It is a relief just to get this much...

I registered for the drug screening exactly as indicated in our packet and supposedly I was supposed to be directed to "enter the drug screening information specific to UT Tyler School of Nursing and...

I don't know how some of you do it. I am fortunate to live with my brother temporarily while I return to school. I am debating whether to work part time while I attend the ABSN program but as...

I have a contact for a home in Whitehouse for rent, but it is pricey because it is a very nice 3 bedroom home. It *might* be possible for three of you to join together. It has a yard and everything....

Well, I got all of my shots done and will have the TB screen completed on Friday. I tried to get my Student ID at UT Tyler but they will not provide that until I am registered for Spring 2015 because...

kibz, I would not do that if at all possible. I mean that is 1.5 hours minimum one way and I am sure that you know how bad traffic can be in TX. Even the acceptance letter notes this and basically...

Maybe some of you should combine forces and rent like a quad-home? I would think that this would be beneficial as everyone is working towards the same goals. This would greatly reduce the cost of...

magnis472, I do not believe that is right. The fingerprinting, background check, and the CPR class are not required to register. My understanding is that all other documentation must be completed....
