Hi future nurses! I didn't see a discussion board for the summer term of 2017, so I decided to make one myself(: Let's use this forum to discuss grades, TEAS, and the application process. This does include venting! We all know how anxiety kicks in wh...

Well I have been MIA for a while, but I received my denial email yesterday. I honestly feel so bummed about it. I have an associates degree already so I really would not want to retake any courses. I think maybe my TEAS weren't competitive enough? I ...

oh man! I dont like that immunizations can stop someone from applying. I almost wasnt able to either because I didnt realize you needed the Varicella vaccine if you didnt have a positive titier but thankfully I was. Good luck with your lab results!

I have officially turned in my application! Yay! I am so nervous. I sent over my TEAS and also all of my vaccinations. Good luck to everyone!

I still have yet to turn in my application, but I will be turning it in soon as soon as I can get a hold of someone in regards to my granted credits. I took Chem at Lonstar College and yet they only credited me 3 credit hrs instead of 4... Not sure i...

I'm applying but I haven't submitted yet. I just need to get my blood drawn. Did you submit all immunizations with your application?

Has anybody had any of their MyStar stuff change? Such as holds, or green light, or something else? I sent my updated transcripts yesterday, but other than that nothing has changed for me. I wonder if we will get emails announcing the commencement of...

I think their process is not so bad... Im applying to UTMB to start in the spring and my deadline was May 31 and I havent heard a thing. I believe we start hearing back in a like another month or two. I did not end up applying to sam to start in the ...

@mani1391 - I did not receive my supplemental application til almost 2 weeks later! Once I filled it out and paid, I received my mystar login about 3 days later.

I have the mystar login now, but now its just the waiting game. I have sent my updated transcripts and now I am just finishing up my spring mini and then ill officially be done with my associates.

I finally got my supplemental form. It took about 2 weeks from the day I submitted my NCAS application. I filled it out and submitted already. Its starting to feel so real and the process just takes forever! I hope we all get in!

Thank you!

Hmm I haven't received my nursing cas acknowledgement letter yet. Do you mind telling me what the letter said? Its been about 8 days since I turned everything in, but that's also including the weekend.

Can yall please post on here when yall receive the supplemental application... I still haven't received mine. I think I am just being in impatient.

@Onthepath91 - True! I also attended an open house (last semester) and they said to send them directly, but some things can change so who knows.

@charlea.adams - Hi! I read on here... https://nursing.utmb.edu/future-students/ncas-application-process.pdf Bummer if we didn't have to send them directly, because I just paid 29 bucks to do so!

Out of all of the excitement I almost forgot to send my TEAS scores directly to UTMB! Oppps! Thank goodness I rechecked the list that was online just for the heck of it.

Thanks! I know they say like 4 weeks, but I knew it would vary. Thanks again!

Alrighty guys! Since finals are approaching I decided to hurry up and finish my nursing application. I finally submitted everything today. Has anyone received the supplemental package? If so, how long did it take?

@loganhope - That's not bad! My adviser told me to get a certain average which, if I remember correctly, was a 75 average or above for the total TEAS score. I got an 85 on the reading and a 91 on the math section and an 80 total score for the TEAS. I...

@loganhope - I didn't hear that directly from any staff member, but I did read that on the SHSU nursing website! That made me feel a lot better since I did really well on those sections!

Hi everyone! GPA 3.6 overall and 80 on the TEAS! Ill be applying as well! I'm just waiting on my class to end so I can send an updated transcript. Good luck to everyone!

Hi all! I am also in the process of applying to UTMB. I am very excited/nervous, but I am mostly excited to finally be applying. I have already taken the TEAS. I scored an 80% and was "Advanced" according to the results. Im not 100% on my GPA since I...

Just received! They said at the open house that it will take about 3 - 4 weeks for NCAS to verify everything after receiving your transcripts. As long as you submitted by the deadline, you are good!

Yes, as long as it is submitted by midnight. However, remember that NCAS has a different time zone. I went to the open house and she stressed the importance of knowing that NCAS had a different time zone than us. Technically you want to submit everyt...
