Texas Tech Accelerated 2nd Degree BSN 2019

[firstgenrn]

Hey, all

Wanted to start a thread for those applying to the Spring 2019 program.

What location will you be applying to? Anyone else in Austin?

Any information/advice from current students is appreciated!

Side note: I totally dig the red scrubs. Haha

For those who were accepted last year or know someone who was previously accepted, did they receive emails first or letters in the mails?

I have read through last year's forum & believe they sent emails first. I don't know if they send official letters in the mail or not!

I read last year's forum, and they sent emails first on September 7th. I hope it would be that early this year too.

When I received my offer of admissions last year it was via email only with no formal letter. And everyone else is correct that I did receive my email on September 7th. I would imagine y'all would receive word by mid September. Good luck!

I am so nervous and excited! I think I would be devastated if I do not get in. I am hoping for San Antonio, but I will take Austin!

Does anyone know how many interviews were offered? I was curious how many people were vying for the spots. I was told 20 spots were available for Abilene.

Does anyone know how many spots are available in San Antonio?

I should have asked, but I really didn't.

[christina.c, BSN, RN]

We had 15 students get accepted in San Antonio for the current year. However, I hear they are trying to increase slots for next year

Hi,

When they sent us the invitation for interviews, I counted around 192 slots overall in Sign Up genius. But I do not how many spots are in each location.

Ok y'all, just a little hint I read about on previous years....log in to the application portal and click on your supplemental items. Mine went from 10/10 to 10/11 this morning. They added a placement fee to my account. I had read that this meant you were accepted even though acceptance emails had not gone out. Can't confirm this is true but it has definitely been added for me.

I've checked my account a few times today. It hadn't changed until after I saw this comment. Now mine says 9/10, so I'm hoping what you said is correct!

AH y'all are making me nervous! Against my better judgment I checked my app and everything is the same, but me being the person I am, I noticed you both applied to the LBK cohort so I'm hoping they're updating accounts by campus and since I applied to Austin, that's why mine is the same IF in fact that is a little sneak peak into decisions. Regardless, I hope it DOES mean yall were accepted!
