Texas State University Fall 2014

Published

This forum is for Fall 2014 applicants at the Round Rock campus. Deadline is fast approaching, January 15, so get your applications in. Feel free to share any questions, concerns, tips with your peers. What made you decide on nursing? What previous health care experience do you have? What is your current science GPA, overall GPA, and TEAS score? What is your previous degree, if any?

I contacted an academic advisor today and asked when we can expect to receive acceptance notification from the SON. She said March 28th! Wish it was sooner, but at least we know when now!

I think you should call them and verify they have your correct contact information and also verify that your application was complete, especially since the deadline was extended. Just tell them you haven't received the background check Fast Pass and you want to verify they have everything. Good luck!

Thanks marinahendrix

I actually did that exact thing today. I just didn't want to be a pest! I emailed so we shall see.

Thank you! So nice to know when we can expect to hear from them.

I'm ******! I thought, based on previous years, that we would know by today at 5pm. So, i've been waiting around all week for friday, just to find out i'd have to wait an additional week! BOOOOOOO BOOOOOO BOOOOO! I hate this!

THE TORTURE CONTINUES!

In my message above," I'm p*i*s*s*e*d" I guess is profanity and is why it is starred out. so in replacement:

I'M Super Mad!

Specializes in NICU.

Haha it would be nice if they told us that from the beginning. They like to watch us squirm! I'll still be checking my email every 10 minutes and stalking the mailman. Good luck everyone!

Home stretch! Good luck ladies! I hope we all get in! :)

I hope we all get in also!!

The SON says they have my application and that I will hear from them on Friday!

This is so exciting!!

I haven't gotten a background check email either...so I am also freaking out. I know that my application is complete, and I know I meet the min. req, I have also called to make sure they have the correct contact info, so I thought it was pretty weird.

The only thing I can think is that I have had a few criminal background checks already this year, because of volunteer work at St. David's and Seton, so I'm wondering if they were just able to use those as initial clearance.....I guess Friday will tell...

Sounds like you're in the same boat with roxanna so I wouldn't worry if you know all of your stuff is in. Our blue cards (for passing the background check) aren't due until the end of June so perhaps the lady who sends the fast pass emails is backed up from spring break or something.

I have a good feeling we will all make it :)

Everyone,

On Friday when you get your e-mail, please post the time your received it and your admissions status.

2 more days! Good Luck to all!
