Hey guys just wanted to give you an update on what our schedule looks like now that we have started the program: Monday - Health Assessment Lecture (8-9) however you will be assigned either a 9:15 or 11:15 lab time following class that will last 2 hours. Tuesday - Adult Health Care I Lecture 1 (8-12). Care Lab will follow immediately after class from 1-4; however, you will be watching videos related to your lab that day from 12-1. Food is permitted during this time so this is also your "lunch break." **This lab will only last until clinical's start about 6 weeks into the program. Wednesday - Pharmacotherapeutics (9-12) and Pathophysiology (1-4) Clinical Information: Clinicals begin mid February. You will be assigned a clinical either Thursday, Friday, or Saturday lasting from 6:30 am - 4:30 pm. No night shifts during this semester. You do have about a 24 hour grace period to switch your clinical assignment (for whatever reason) as long as you find a classmate that is also willing to swap. Best of luck!

No problem, good luck!!

They took away the essay and interview portion of the application back in 2010 I believe due to too many applicants.

Hey guys so we haven't actually started yet but we will start the second week of January. Based on what we have been told and our current schedules we will be in class 3 days a week and once we begin clinicals (late February) we could have them either Thursday or Friday (maybe even Saturday? Not 100% sure) depending on what day we are assigned. Those will be from 6:30 am - 4:30 pm. Yay for 10 hr. Clinicals😊 So our schedule looks a little like this: Monday - Health Assessment Lecture (8-9) however we will get assigned a lab time in addition that will last 3 hrs. And that can range anywhere from (9:30-1:30) again, depending on what time you are assigned. Tuesday - Adult Health Care I Lecture 1 (8-12). **Some upperclassmen have mentioned that there is a Lab component from 12-4 however, once clinicals begin it will only be from 8-12 as the lab was meant to prepare us for clinicals. This isn't on our schedules so I'm not sure if it will be added on later? Or if our schedules have changed? Wednesday - Pharmacology (9-12) and Pathophysiology (1-4) Like I said, we haven't started yet so this information may or may not be totally correct. You may want to check back for a thread or facebook group to the previous year of the semester of which you are applying to. I know in my case, I found a lot of helpful tips from the Spring 2014 page. Good luck guys!

Yay! Congratulations.

Geez I'm so sorry yall have had to wait this long. I don't understand why they keep beating around the bush and can't just tell you your admission status to give you some peace of mind.

That is so strange because they have definitely used a waitlist for many semesters now. Sometimes their relay of information is very confusing. Same goes for when you call by phone, different people give different answers and it is sometimes very misleading. Sending positive vibes out to everyone!

This is for UThealth in Houston. I haven't heard of them not doing a wait list. To my knowledge it has been around for years, that is strange that they would have stressed that at an info. Session. Which one did you attend?

I am so sorry to hear that:( Are any of you reapplying for summer semester? If so, I really hope to see you join us. For those of you who are continuing on in another program I wish you the very best of luck!

Oh okay I guess that would make sense because November 15th is a little over 2 weeks out and I was told a while back that everyone would know their status change by then (well that is their goal at least) regardless of accepted/waitlist/denied

Thanks so much! I hope you get some good news soon as well as anyone else who is still waiting to hear back!

Hang in there guys! I heard they send them out in waves so hopefully you hear back soon

I think I found it. Is there anyway we can make it a group? If not, no worries

or spring 2017 (:

Got mine also. Congratulations!! Now decision time
