Hi everyone! Just thought I'd start a thread for those who are applying to UTMB for Fall 2011. There are some really great (and long!) threads out there for Spring 2011 and earlier...but as I'm sure y'all know, the application process can change from cycle to cycle, plus it's just nice to have a new thread for us. :) So feel free to post questions, comments, or anything related to applications!
I'm applying as a second-degree student to UTMB, UTHSC, TWU (Houston), UT Arlington and A&M, plus maybe the new Texas State program. Whew! I keep hearing great things about UTMB so that might be my #1....
A question to start us off: so we can now use either the centralized NursingCAS application, or the application through UTMB, right? What are you all going to do? I'm thinking of just doing UTMB's direct application....if you do NursingCAS, I think you'll have to do a supplemental UTMB application+fee anyway, so you might as well just do it all once...thoughts?
I emailed enrollment services yesterday and asked them I there's any way to figure out if/when my application has been/will be reviewed. I received a reply last night saying my application was forwarded to the SON on 3/9/11 and is currently under review. My hopes are fading, but there is still a chance so keep your heads up!
Does anyone know how many applicants applied for the BSN to MSN program for Fall 2011. In particular the FNP? Has anyone been invited for an interview?
I called today to check on things because I have not gotten anything back on mystar... well they said if you applied through NursingCas our applications have not even been looked at yet! They are having "a few difficulties" and will get them all worked out soon. Sooo the only people that have received an interview and acceptance did the regular nursing application not NursingCas. Hope this helps :)

I tried calling today and after 1 hr. 26min. 28 sec of hearing "we are currently assisting other students and will answer your call in the order that it was received" I gave up.
And I still think it's total BS that they have already sent out interviews and now acceptance letters and haven't even looked at all the applications.

Thank you.
Hmph. My stats weren't that great, but I had a lot of explaining to do.
GPA: 3.3
TEAS: 74
I had no drops. But I retook Chemistry and Statistics. I had C's originally and then received in A in both.
