For those that were accepted, what type of email did you guys receive regarding background checks & ToDo's. 

All the emails I received from UTMB were from Laura Troncozo. She sent out multiple reminding us about the fingerprinting through Identogo, background checks, and accessing our UTMB email and MyStar portal through Citrix. I received the Identogo email a couple days later, but definitely check your spam and junk folder if you haven't gotten any yet.

I accepted my decision on Friday and I haven't received anything regarding Citrix. How long did she take to get back to you on that or to receive that email once you accepted the school?

Thank you! Yeah, she sent me an email about the background check and to be on the look out for the Identgo email. I'll check my spam/junk. 
Thanks again.

I actually also accepted my decision on a Friday a couple weeks ago! It took almost a week for the Citrix email to come in, be on the lookout and check your spam/junk folders!

Don't fret if it hasn't come in yet, I was really nervous as I hadn't gotten it almost a week later LOL, but it definitely will.

if it was through Identgo, it may be because you accepted an offer at another school. if you received another email from UTMB though, I'm not entirely sure.

Not yet, but I might if I get an acceptance from Cizik this week. I have until Friday to decide.

I'm assuming none of the next step emails will come through until I formally accept my seat?

Thanks again! Yeah, in the email she mentioned it can take up to 15 business days to receive the email.

Hi! I'm assuming you applied for the Summer start at Cizik? I did too, but everyone hears back at the same time on April 15. If you didn't, just disregard this LOL. I'm also waiting to hear back from them but placed a deposit down for UTMB anyways, just to hold my seat in case I get rejected.

Hi, yes I applied for Summer start, and that's not true! They send out admission in 2-3 rolling waves! Some people already received acceptances at the beginning of February! We're currently waiting for the second wave, and it'll probably roll out any time in the next few weeks. There's an Allnurses page called Cizik School of Nursing at UTHealth Houston Summer 25 Applicants where we've been discussing it, if you want to check it out!

I also plan to put my deposit down on UTMB to secure my spot if I don't hear back from Cizik by Friday, but honestly Cizik is my first choice, mainly because it's much closer to me.
