Published

I’m not sure if it’s too early to start this thread, but anyone on here planning on applying to Texas Tech’s Second Degree program in May?

@Hayley Baker Uselding I did mine in July and have my blue card, I hope that's why I didn't get an email. That made my heart drop, I hope that's why we didn't get an email. 

I know how you feel, I starting panicking as soon as I saw others were getting that email!! It can’t just be a coincidence thought that those who already have them aren’t receiving an email (I hope)! 

Specializes in ICU.

If you already have a blue card then you shouldn't get anything from IdentoGO! The "next steps" document in the interview folder says you'll either get a blue card OR the IdentoGO email OR an approval letter (I'm not 100% sure what this last option is or who it might apply to)

For those of you that didn’t get an email, don’t panic! This is what it says under “next steps” in the folder.

“Students will receive one of the 3 outcomes below:
-Blue Card for those students that are eligible; or,

-Outcome/Approval Letter; or

-Identogo email for students needing to submit/resubmit fingerprints”

It seems that those with their Blue Cards are not supposed to get the IdentoGO email.

Also if you have worked in healthcare before or have volunteered somewhere within the state they may have information for you already! I have had to go through countless background checks for my PCT job and volunteering, so don't worry if you didn't get one! In previous nursing programs, people received identogo emails before acceptance or denial so I really don't think it means much. Hope that helps ?

Yeah I already did the identigo stuff for another program back in December and I also already have my blue card so hopefully that’s it! 

Same!! Mine was more like a year and a half ago, but surely my fingerprints are still good! And the blue card should be good? I'm sure they will let us know. ?

So this has to be a good sign right?? Since they sent us emails for fingerprinting??

Im wondering the same thing!! I got an email about fingerprinting today and was wondering if this is a sign we got accepted??

We will all be receiving these emails, they are part of the application process

Hi, has anyone received an identoGO that interviewed last week?

Specializes in Bilingual Teacher.

Is there anyone who had an interview at any point that has not been fingerprinted before, for work or another program, who has not been sent an email from Identgo? 

I didn't receive one, but I also have mine on file as of July for the BON. 

This is from someone who is in the program right now, “Y’all the finger prints have NO say that you’re getting admitted or not. It’s part of the process for EVERYONE! It’ll come, things happen in waves and generally emails are sent out by last names in bunches.”

By what I understand the "Approval Letter" refers to something like a state or federal exemption for those in the military basically meaning your waived from needing it.
