How will we know if we got in and when are they going to let us know.

I believe they first look at all the applications and they pick around 130-140 students for an interview. And after that they will send acceptance letters. I’m not exactly sure when they send interviews/acceptance letters! I just hope we can all get in ??❤️

I was told that we should be hearing back sometime in September for interviews and October for decisions. I'm not sure if there will be a delay this time around since they waived the TEAS.

I'm so nervous to hear back, UTHSC is my top choice. Do yall know the types of questions they ask during the interviews? I looked around and I can't find anything

WOW!! That’s just around the corner! I’m super nervous yet excited! Do y’all know if this semester will be more competitive given the fact that the TEAS was not required?

From previous threads, I have heard that they are simple questions such as; about yourself, questions in how to handle situations etc. I’ll try and see if I can find something. But regardless they say that you will be able to skim through it & practice before recording yourself.

I'm more than positive there are more people that applied than usual. More people don't want to enter the field anymore due to the pandemic, so schools have been lowering their standards and extending deadlines.

UTMB extended their app deadline 2 or 3 times and now there's over 1,500 applicants (700 more than usual). I'm pretty sure the applicant pool at UTH-SA is in the 500-700 range ?

Hopefully, we do hear back around September and October, there might be a delay due to the pandemic.

Thank you for letting me know about the interviews! I thought it would be set up to where you would have to answer questions on the spot. Takes the stress away knowing I can at least practice before recording and sending it off
