I didn’t see a thread for the Texas Christian University class beginning in 2022. Good luck everyone.

TCU and Tex Wes have larger cohorts, but it feels small. I am in the 2023 cohort right now. 

If you don't mind me asking, how are you liking the program so far? From what I've researched the front loaded stuff can be online/remote or can be in-person lecture, correct?

So far I love it. The professors are so helpful and available as you need them. Our class stays connected via facebook and GroupMe so we’ve made some friendships even before moving to Fort Worth. The first eight months are online and you are able to work the whole time if you choose to do so. I am still working full-time. In August everyone moves to Fort Worth and you complete the 12 other months of didactic. The second late July/August you move to your clinical site and you complete the remaining coursework while doing your residency at your clinical site.

@GingerNicuNurse do you happen to remember how long after your interview you were notified about an admission decision? I know some schools move really quickly and others let you pull your hair out wondering! Thanks in advance

I believe it was a week after I interviewed. It was sooner than I was expecting!

So maybe I missed something, but is there an information session or anything to go along with our interviews? Thanks!

They sent some info in the emails and sent a video about clinicals

Just had my interviews. The first ones vibes were weird. Second one went better but I don’t have high hopes. Some of the questions stumped me!

Just a few! Definitely geared from what you say and answer previously. So be careful what you say and make sure if you say it, you can really talk about it
