I was accepted for Fall 2015!!

I just received my interview invitation also! Those of you that are still waiting to hear back, hang in there! I did not expect an interview invite after seeing the amazing stats a lot of the applicants have. But I finally got one today. Don't give up, I know I won't! :)

I made a 72 and scored above the 65% needed for each section. I know with more time for studying, I could've made better.

I'm freaking out too! I have one more class to take and I'll be done with my prerequisites. My stats aren't amazing but I'm praying they see some potential in me. Don't lose hope. Good luck to all of you that have gotten interviews! Also, best of luck to those who are still being considered :)

Oh thank goodness! Thank you so much for clarifying! I was under the impression that they would use the NCAS GPA, and I have been freaking out over how low mine is. Although my original GPA isn't all that great, I would much rather have UTMB look at that GPA over the NCAS. I am also super anxious playing the waiting game. I am just trying to stay positive as best I can. But I wish you good luck!! :)

I was also shocked when I found out my GPA through NCAS. If you take a class over again, UTMB takes the average of the first and last attempt. My GPA without NCAS is 3.46 but since I took classes over, my GPA is now a 3.26

Hello, @Mr.Nurse0913 My stats: Cummulative GPA: 3.26 Science GPA: 3.4 TEAS: 72% This is also the only school I applied to. Since my GPAs and TEAS aren't all that great, I am hoping that my personal statement shows what kind of person I am overall. I really have a passion for nursing so I am hoping that it shows through my statement. I think that you being a guy does not hurt your chance at all. If anything, I think it makes you more of a candidate. I have been so nervous throughout this entire application process because of my statistics. But it's nice to know that there are other people in a similar situation. Good luck to you!! :)
