UTA FALL 2012

U.S.A. Texas

Published

Hey all, I thought I would set up a place to discuss the next application period for UTA's Fall 2012 nursing program. There was so much info in the Spring 2012 forum, thought it might be helpful to start a new thread...

Post away!

im a junior and i wont have the time to retake them . im also applying to other nursing schools besides uta for fall 2012. I appreciate your comment. Its tough getting into uta nursing program but i already put in my application and im hoping for the best. Ive looked into the lvn and rn bride program as an alternative but im just hoping that i get into one of the nursing schools i applied to.

Papple, please do not give up. I do not know of anyone who didn't get into a program, though some had to wait longer than others:) I think your grades are very good, just a small reflection of who you are, but unfortunately one of factors univiersities base admissions on.

as for HESI help, at one point I needed to access my scores again to be sent to another program, and though I cannot recall the exact process, I was able log in and resend my scores. I also saved my scores page as a PDF and was glad, because admissions never received, so I was able to email it quickly to my advisor.

hi everyone!

i've been following posts on allnurses for months and have finally joined. congrats to everyone- those of you accepted, and those of you who haven't given up. like many of you, i am an older student with a family, bs & ma in psyc, and came across the uta accelerated program, thinking it would allow me to fulfill a dream of becoming an rn while utilizing my bs. i prefer online courses (thesis in de), and still think this program is the best for my needs. i have outstanding gpa for my ma and last 60 of bs, but like some of you, i took my natural sciences years ago, and many of the grades aren't so hot. i originally applied to ut houston, but was rejected for science gpa. contacted uta a year ago and was persuaded to go for it. my hesi is decent (89), and i have completed all pre-reqs. i was very frustrated to hear i had to take tech writing with all the writing i have done for school, but of course i did it. sadly, i made a b is both pharm and path (an 89.88 in path- so close but no cigar!) which isn't great. however, i busted my tail and feel i learned a lot. i was waitlisted for the spring start up, so i went ahead and registered to retake micro to increase my gpa. i am getting very frustrated plus disappointed- i've already invested a lot of time and $, but not ready to give up. applying for fall start, and depending on how micro goes, may retake chem (oh, how i loathe that prospect!). no, i am not currently partnered, and i do not work. i brought that up to my advisor, since i read how important it is to be partnered, but how it's discovered to work due to heavy course load. so confusing! also, i live near houston and dallas is out of the question. i fear that i have wasted a lot of time and energy...but everyone's perserverence is giving me the strength i need to hang on. thanks!

I took Patho & Pharm thru El Centro. It will transfer to UTA. It can be done online as well. It's a lot to read, but our professor was very helpful and really wanted the students to do well.

I have already sent in my application for AP and for traditional to UTA for Fall 2012. I will be applying to other schools as well this time now that my sciences are up to date again.

Hello everyone,I plan to apply for the traditional program. My science gpa is 4.0 and overall gpa is around 3.7. I'm missing 5 classes in the prereq and will finish them before Fall. I'm hoping for the best...My problem right now is that my application mail has not been delivered yet! USPS has been super slow around the holidays! Does anyone know where I can submit my app in person at uta? Thanks!

I sent the package on dec 21 and the expected delivery date is dec 22. USPS said they will investigate my case. *sigh*

You should be able to turn it into the College of Nursing office on campus. Are you in the area? I might suggest just getting the needed docs together and bringing it by without waiting for USPS just to be on the safe side.
