UTMB BACC2 Spring 2012

[laura.c.j]

I wanted to start a thread for those applying for UTMB's 2012 accelerated nursing program. The application is open April 1-July 15. I was told invites for interviews start after the application is closed and interviews start end July-August. Does anyone have any additional information? Has anyone applied before? Know of any interview questions? Please share everything you know!!!!!!!

Good luck to everyone

All I can say is I am happy with everything I told my interviewer. I layed it all out on the table and did not hold anything back. I've done my part, and hope that they see a good nurse in me. Everyone I met in the interview waiting room was really nice. It's gotta be a really tough decision.

I was told they'll let me know in 2 weeks. We shall see.

Interview went well- they asked me a question about sugar and taxes that I didn't expect- but other than that, things went well!

After going down there and looking at housing- living by myself is going to be a little steep! 1 bed places around campus start in the $750/mo range!

Is there anyone that is looking to share a place? I would prefer my rent to be in the $300-500/mo range.

[AC123TX]

When did you interview? Are you for BACC2?

[laura.c.j]

[AC123TX]

That's awesome!

I'm curious- why would someone get to skip the interview?

[laura.c.j]

no idea.

[AC123TX]
