Texas Tech-Accelerated BSN Spring 2020

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

I haven't seen a thread for those of us applying May 1st to the January 2020 cohort. I'm wondering how heavily they weigh the TEAS. Also, I have heard as long as you meet all criteria they typically give you an interview. Has anyone else heard this? I really like how they take a holistic approach to grant admissions. I'm wanting to apply to UTA but I feel like the main way you get extra points is by attending school there which I did not do! We'll see!

To anyone that has already interviewed, how did it go? Do y’all have any advice? I’m feeling more nervous the closer I get to my interview date ?

I just had my interview on Friday and do not psych yourself out! I was so nervous about the type of questions they were going to ask but they were very basic ie. stress management, community involvement, support system, etc. They really just want to get a sense of your personality and your mentality towards the program, how well rounded you are, how you handle stress. Some interviews are focused on weeding applicants out and from my impression, that was not the case. Everyone was incredibly nice and wanted you to feel comfortable. Be confident, prepare some questions and relax! Best of luck!

Thank you so much! That makes me feel a little better ? @amr151030

I believe it's August 28th. Last year, they got acceptance emails September 4th. Fingers crossed we hear back that early!

Oh I hope so! My interview is Tuesday!

I have my online interview on Aug 29.

Btw can anyone share how their online interview went?

Thanks for the encouragement! Glad it went well! I know there’s interviews in Lubbock all day on Wednesday the 28th... sounds like maybe Thursday or Friday or the last day? Hoping we know right after Labor Day!

Does anyone who is interviewing tomorrow in Abilene have the address and the room number? I thought I had a picture of it but I can’t find it ?

This is the info that came in the invite email:

1674 Pine Street, Abilene TX 79601 and the parking map linked

No problem @Jessica Corona! Best of luck tomorrow!
