UTMB BACC2 Spring 2011

Published

Just wanted to start a thread to see how many others have applied to the BACC2 program and hopefully we can keep track when interviews start, letters get sent, etc.

So, have you sent in your application, and when do you think you will first hear something? I know last year, interviews didn't start until October, but I have a feeling that they were still trying to play catch-up from Ike. Considering that some of the Fall 2010 applicants were contacted on March 1st for interviews when the application period ended Feb. 15th, I'm hoping that maybe August could be a possiblity for us to hear from UTMB. Any one else have thoughts about this?

Here's to all the BACC2 2011 applicants! Good luck! :D

I have given my spot up for the Bacc2 program. Good luck to everyone!

Lindsay,

When was your interview?

I was accepted into the program early.

I was accepted into the program early.

Lindsay,

How does one go about being accepted to the program early?

Long story short...I had interviewed for the Fall 2010 class, got accepted then offered early admission to the Bacc2 program.

Did you all know that the TEAS is being required for the Bacc2?

Did you all know that the TEAS is being required for the Bacc2?

Is that new? I did not see that as a requirement when I applied back in the summer. If it really was required then it would have greatly helped my app...

Did you all know that the TEAS is being required for the Bacc2?

It is required for the Spring 2012 applicants, but it wasn't for the Spring 2011. So all of you out there who didn't take it for this coming January, don't you worry!

Lindsay, did you decide if you're still going to UTMB or are you going to try out UTHSC? Best of luck to you!

Thanks for the info. You scared me for a second! I applied for Spring 2011 BACC2. I had my Interview last thursday the 30th!

Sorry for the scare. I was given the wrong information from the nursing office. I thought I was going to have to take it again.

As for the TEAS, I forgot to let you guys know that I got that information directly from the Director of the BACC2 program. I emailed her when I noticed that on the website and she said that it's not until 2012. Didn't want anyone to think I was just making stuff up! :)

LindsayPaige - If you don't mind me asking, why did you give up your spot to the program? Hopefully it was not because you thought you needed to take the TEAS!

Nope. The reason was because I have the opportunity to work part time and have my school fully paid for by my company. Since I am a second degree holder it is hard to find loans and I'd rather not come out of school with more debt. :)
