Is anyone applying to TTU Traditional BSN nursing program Fall of 2015?? I thought this would be a great place we could all come together and ask questions, answer questions, encourage each other, and stay up to date!!
Here are some questions to get going:
What campus are you applying to?
How many campuses can we apply to?
If you are applying for Fall 2015 have you completed all 57 credit hours?
Cumulative and science GPA? (If too personal, don't answer) :)
How many volunteer hours will you have?
Does anyone know about how many apply vs. get accepted?
Any tips, advice, or information you want to share with us scared future nurses?!
When is everyone scheduled to take the TEAS?
If you've taken the TEAS already, what did you think?!
**I want this to be a positive, helpful and encouraging thread for everyone!!**
What was the name of the secondary application? Was it the Merlin app that was due before the deadline? I don't know if I should be worried since I never received an email about any other application. Also, has anybody else been invited to interview?
Tranzam, do you know if the people getting invites are currently enrolled at tech? How did your interview go?
I know last year at our orientation when they asked to raise our hands if we were already at Tech and it was about 95%. That was around 157 of us. Of course, y'all's class will be much smaller...around 75 is what we've heard.
Oh wow! Thank you for the response, raidergirl! Do you know why this class is going to be so much smaller?
Because they are now going to be doing a Fall and Spring class. So the yearly number is still the same but each fall and spring will be around that number. I believe they are also starting a summer admit for 2016.
The 2 people I know that had interviews this week are students at tech. I honestly think I didn't do too well on my interview. I was pretty nervous and stumbling over my words some.
I'm sure you did better than you think at the interview, tranzam. The people that met with you have been interviewing nervous prospective students all week long and I'm sure they are used to the babbling and a little bit of awkwardness from people. I've even heard of several people who have ended up crying at their interviews and got in. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and tbippus :)
Hey I'm student at Houston Community College and I applied to TTHSC two days before the deadline and got invites for an interview! I also applied to UTMB and UT at Tyler! Since Houston is a bit far from Lubbock, they are arranging to interview me via Skype! I have 4.0 science gpa and 3.92 overall gpa! I have 82 adjusted individual score and 92 national percentile on Teas! I have been volunteering at Memorial Hermann Hospital since January 15,2014 and so far I have accumulated more than 230 hrs! I have also been volunteering at my church since January 01, 2012!
