UIW BSN to DNP

Published

Hi! Checking in to see if anyone is applying for the Spring 2018 start date at UIW Bsn to DNP program? Also if there is anyone that is in the program... Reviews and tips are greatly appreciated! Tia

That's a good question. I actually didnt even think about that. Aaww that would be wonderful if they could make it. I forsee them doing some sort of entry meet and greet since its a hybrid program.

I hope they send out acceptance/denial letters soon. Im getting a tad anxious ha

I just called the psych program coordinator (because the family one didn't answer) and found out that they haven't started reviewing applications yet, but once they do they will choose those the applicants they want to interview and from there they will select the chosen candidates for the program:)

Oh no Interviewssss. Lol. So I'm sure by next month they should be sending out interview invites at least. The wait is killing me

I know haha I feel the exact same way:/

Yea a month sounds about right seeing they pushed back the deadline and they haven't even started the selection process.

No.

I only knew of one BSN to DNP program which was the one UIW is offering. If I don't get into that program then I'll go ahead and apply for my MSN for fall of 2018 at UTHSCSA which is where I got my BSN.

What about you?

I feel weird butting in here, but I went to an information session at UT Health in July and they mentioned that they are awaiting approval for their BSN-DNP program and that it might be introduced soon. Just FYI :)

Update: since they extended the deadline they started reviewing a little late but they are reviewing applications now and we should hear something within the next few weeks.

Now time to anxiously freak out

I'm at the point where my heart drops when the phone rings lol. (they told me it would be a phone call). I am considering when to move closer to San Antonio if accepted. I would like to stay in Killeen but I know with clinicals that prob won't be possible. Can you recommend any neighborhoods to look into and places to work?

Oh wow I didn't know they would be calling to set interviews. I thought it would be an email. Time to get nervous all over again...

Killeen would be very far away if the clinicals were frequent

Most definitely:) I live in the Alamo heights area which isn't far from UIW at all. I would recommend the Alamo heights area, medical center (nice and affordable), stone oak, 1604 (East or West).

Here are the zip codes of nice/safer areas that are within 30 minutes to UIW area: 78209,78218,78229,78240, 78249
