Texas Tech-Accelerated BSN Spring 2020

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!

Jessica, I didn't feel like I interviewed well, either - definitely wasn't myself! I keep thinking I probably blew it ? Atxmitch, thanks for the info. Makes the waiting a little easier...

I’m sorry you felt the same way! The worse part for me is I prepared all week for it and when I actually sat down I just got so nervous and didn’t feel like I really expressed myself cause I just wanted it to be over.. I’m a shy person but I work hard and my heart is set on nursing ? If it’s meant to be, we’ll get in. If not, we just have to keep moving forward! ? @Coopsalot

I think most interviewers understand this. Try not to over think things.

Any one got IdenToGo link from email for fingerprint right after interview? I am not sure it's the right step to get it down before official acceptance letter. Any advise please?!

[Jessica Corona]

Yeah you’re right, I’ll try not to overthink things! ? @atxmitch

I got the IdenToGo link before I had my interview and I went ahead and got it done just so I wouldn’t have to worry about it later if I was accepted or so I could already have it for other nursing programs I plan to apply to if I don’t get in!

So last year it looks like they got emails in the evening. One said 5:30 so possibly tomorrow night? I'm so nervous but I can't wait to know either way!

Ok hopefully tomorrow! Fingers crossed!

I can’t wait to put speculations behind us and start worrying about schedules, books and financial aid!!!???

[jillhill81]

Agreed! Which location are you going for? I’m trying for Dallas!

[Knrw2019]

Dallas was my second option, but after my interview I switched to San Antonio. Austin is my first option.

I wish I could have alternatives but not possible for me! Good luck!
