UT Houston Fall 2010 (University of Texas at Houston)

[mjbayuda]

Anyone here applied already?

Have you taken the NET exam?

I heard that all applicants interviewed were getting their results from the top of the stack to the bottom, regardless if they were accepted. Maybe that is why it's taking so long to finish updating. ***fingers crossed*** Does anyone know if that is true?

[martinwinn]

From the registers office... someone did say that acceptance and rejection letters are going out at the same time. I just need to know if anyone else heard that same thing. Thanks guys.

[Caitster]

Yeah.. I'm pretty sure that is true.

Mine starts with an "M" and I was also accepted. You should really call the registrar's office or admissions or something to find out if they can just tell you your status over the phone. I think they've also sent most of those that were accepted an e-mail saying that you were accepted as well so if neither your admissions on UT Link have changed nor have you received the e-mail, you might want to call UTHSC themselves and check. Good luck to you!

My last name starts with a V. You should definitely call them and find out what is going on. Good luck!! :)

Hi,

I am new to this message board. I have applied to UT generic BSN and I am still finishing my pre-requisites. I would like to have a better idea of how intense the program is. How many hours or days do you spend on campus? How many hours of studying do I need to plan per day? Thank you.

I am still waiting also! I called them and they said that the everyone should receive letters by the end of this week. UGH. Has anyone that applied to the accelerated program find out that they got into the Fall 2010 program?

[Keybutterfly]

I am still waiting! I called and they said that we should all receive letters by the end of the week. UGH. Has anyone that applied for the accelerated program find out that they got accepted to the Fall 2010 program?

I already called them twice and emailed once. All I get is letters of acceptance/denial will be mailed out by 15th April. I am losing hope.

@nervousnow

do you mind telling us your

gpa and net subscores?

you did get an interview right?

don't lose hope, maybe you're waitlisted

a few people who got accepted might decline

so there's still hope

NO PACKET MAIL TODAY

now we wait for tom's

[pinkbee]

I know a few people who are going somewhere else so I am sure there are a lot of open spots. Keep hoping!

Hey ya'll. I'm a UTHSC-SON 2nd semester student. I saw this thread and thought I would help ya'll out a little bit. #1 stop calling the school...they won't tell you anything, they're not supposed to. Check your UTlink, it should be there instead of "pending" status. Mine showed up on UTlink a week before I got my letter. #2 Visible tatoos are no problems #3 top 10% of your class means a lot, but it is not definative. No one knows how they pick people from those they interviewed. #4 to Clemence, it is a tough school. On average you spend 3 days on campus for school, unless you have lab then its 4. You will also have 1 day of clinical your fist semester. How many hours a day do you need to study? Every waking hour possible, unless you have a photographic memory and are a speed reader. Its not easy, by any means, but its not impossible. If you work hard and study hard you will be ok. On average the first semester I probably had about 200 pgs per class per week. You have to remember that this school has a reputation of being the best, which means they are crazy...but hey it works. Last semester grads had a 100% 1st time pass rate on the NCLEX, the only school in TX to do so.

I will follow this thread for a little longer and be here to answer any questions ya'll have. Also if you wanna email me feel free to once you know you're in so I can give you some pointers on getting ready for school and what to expect. You can also contact me on face book. Good luck ya'll!
