Anyone????? besides me waiting on that interview letter for nursing school to come already?????????????? :plsebeg: Have you completed all your pre-reqs? what cha got left? care to share your GPA?

I am in the works of completeing my last pre-req...Physiology sooo far its been my fav. class its better than anatomy. GPA 3.5 microbio and physio not inlcuded. (I wish I didn't suck at comp. 1 I got a C in that class you guys!)

I emailed Debbie (she's the head hancho of the program. They are very good at replying like a minute later to your emails :typing and also very good at answering all phone calls) I asked about how I should go about registering for the TEAS entrance exam...she said on the same day you do your interview you also take the TEAS exam!

WHAT??? :banghead: is what I thought to myself sooo...I basically have till the month of April to study for that sucker!

It came today! I just received my interview and testing letter! I'm scheduled for my interview on Thurs, March 26 at 12:00 pm, with my test to follow. The letter says the test will take 3 hours! Wow, that's a long test! I have to remember to pick up a money order for it too...the letter says to have a money order or cashier's check to cover the cost of the test.

I would have never thought I'd be so excited to get an interview and test scheduled!

WOW Congrats! So yours just came TODAY! i'm so glad I landed on this thread! I've been waiting too and thought how they are really slow since other schools are already done. Question to you, miranda, do you have to go to San Antonio for your interview?? Let me know b/c I live in Houston and am waiting for that letter. I need to check my mail when I get home.

The letter is dated Feb. 27, but just got here today. Yes, the interview and test are at the Health Science Center. The interview is at the School of Nursing, North Building, Room 1.118. The letter says to be prepared to spend about 4 hours at the school. I wonder how long it will take to find out if we are in or not. The waiting is the worst!

miranda, if you don't mind my asking, what the GPA UTHSCSA has on file for you? the one they calculated for you.

I don't see a GPA that UTHSCSA calculated for me. My transcript evaluation worksheet has an overall GPA of 3.945 and the same for the prereq GPA. The letter I received today says, "Based on your GPA on both required courses and overall college perfomance...", but there no GPA listed in that letter.

As a 1st semester student CONGRATS!

The test seems long.... but when your doing it and concentrating time FLIES by haha so dont worry about that :-p

Hopefully you girls/guys get in and i'll hear you complain about 1st semester as I am now and grace you with my wisdom HAHA j/k

Good Luck!

P.S. Did you run from the mailbox to your house/apt and start doing your happy dance and bother your family about it like i did? LOL

hey aznplay! i need to ask you about the interview. it says that there will be a group interview, which is very weird to me. i have never been to a group interview before. how was that like for you? please let me know, thanks!

Hmm group interview? I don't recall it being a group... The only thing we did as a group was all take the test in the same computer lab...

I remember them giving us 15 minute spread of time between each person to interview and it was a one on one interview...

did your letter say group interview??

miranda and purple? did your letters say group interview?

I got my letter and it also said group interview... I hope we don't have to compete to answer their questions. It seemed like there would be more than one of them at the interview, but will there be more than one of us being questioned too? idk.

My interview date is for the 24th at noon with the test to follow...
