Yes, it is extremely early to begin talking about the Spring 2018 class, however, I thought it would be nice if we could all get together here and go through our pre-req/application/acceptance journey. It would be fun to lend support, chronicle our stresses and excitements and see how everything unfolds for us from now until the first day of class (assuming we get accepted).
I'll start:
I'm taking my pre-reqs at Lonestar (10 hrs for Spring, 14 hrs for Summer). I plan to take 18 hrs for Fall and will be testing out of 15 hrs via CLEP. I work PRN in a Critical Care unit at a major hospital. I will be taking the HESI in May; once Spring semester ends. Lastly, I have high hopes to be accepted into the Honors program once I am eligible to apply, since I have a deep interest in research.
I hope to hear from some of you! The application deadline is September 1 and there is a webinar info session at 10am tomorrow.
I saw a few comments about not being able to access the applyUTH website so I checked and I am able to access the applyUTH website but my application status is still listed as "Application under review." Maybe this is just me being in denial or naive since this is my first time applying, but I truly believe that they are not completely done with acceptances. I'm not sure if in the past more acceptances have gone out even after some people being waitlisted but I am holding on to believing that there is still a chance and spots open. Hopefully we'll know more by this Thursday but for any of us whose applications are still listed as "Application under review" or waitlisted, hang in there and have faith. Don't let yourself get discouraged! :)
My status says the same thingí ½í¸¢. I've read a couple of previous threads and I noticed they had more than one wave of acceptances so hopefully this time is the same.
I reeeeeeally hope so, mine says the same thing. I really want to keep my hopes up but I just don't get how they can still send out acceptances if they already have people wait-listed? But then again, if they already know who they accepted and wait-listed why haven't they send the rejection letters yet?? THIS IS SO STRESSFUL!

It really is stressful. I guess we have that small hope left till we get our rejections.
Today I spoke with a current student in person. She was telling me that she saw on allnurses that acceptances had gone out, then wait lists had gone out, and was super bummed. But then one day, a few weeks later, she got her acceptance. All hope is not lost. The Universe put her on my bus today for a reason as I saw her in her scrubs on the train, but didn't get a chance to talk to her (didn't want to seem creepy, lol) ,and then all of a sudden she happened to be on the same park and ride as me, we just got on at different stops. She happened to be a Veteran as well, so too many coincidences to ignore for a guy like me. I felt obliged to put it back into the Universe for you all. Everybody stay positive until you see your official acceptance. If you don't get in, and you had great scores, then it wasn't meant to be at this time. We have all done our VERY best, and we should all feel proud of that. And if you haven't done your VERY best, then you shouldn't expect to get into a highly

competitive program and that is that. Good luck!
Thank you so much for this, spoke straight to me since I'm in the Reserves.
Well you guys, checked my portal this morning and it now says application denied. Best of luck and blessings to the rest of you that are waiting. Once again, congrats to the people accepted... Don't give up and embrace the suck. If you think about quitting please remember that there are those of us who would have given anything to have had your spot.
God bless you!

FYI: I will be starting the thread under that name but after Nov. 15th deadline. I am tracking the waves and times so I can put that in the intro of the thread.
