UTMB Fall 2012

Published

HI! I am applying for the traditional BSN program at UTMB that starts Fall 2012. I am taking my TEAS this friday and I wanted to know if anyone else here is applying for the same semester. Hopefully there are others so I don't have to be nervous alone!! :D

I am planning on commuting. So far, the advisers have made it seem like you would be actually taking classes 2 times per week and they try to have you do your clinicals close to where you live.

Username: ) Awesome! I'll definitely be on campus. I asked if there were a lot of nursing students that stayed on campus and the advisors said it was 50/50.

Nailpolish-Yea, I remember they mentioned that they try really hard to make clinicals convenient for us. I didn't know about the 2x's p/week though. That would be great for everyone who plans to commute! Although, I think I'd still stay on campus.

My interview today was good. I hope! But after talking to my interviewer, she made me realize that commute would probably be best since clinicals will vary per semester, there's possibilities of them being in the medical center so it would be pointless to move out there since I'm from Houston. she told me they will let me know in 4 weeks and to call if I don't hear anything by then.

Also it is true that it was more of a casual conversation than an interview! Good luck to everyone!

Does anyone know when the next round of interviews will be? If I recall correctly they have 3 rounds.... right?

i am not sure how many interview rounds there are...but it seems like 3 may be the right number.

glad to hear everyone had a good interview. i can't wait until we hear back!

Thanks. I sure hope that I eventually get an email inviting me to an interview... I might cry otherwise :( Trying to keep my head up, but it sure is hard....

Hemphia,

I think I heard somewhere too that there were three rounds of interviews ... I rescheduled mine for Wednesday the 14th at nine in the morning ... hoping it will go well. I really hope we start hearing back from schools soon this waiting game is tough!

IF any of y'all think of it when your there to ask how many interviews there will be and when maybe the next round will be? I would greatly appreciate it. I am so freaking out, bc I thought that my stats were in great standing, and I was told that my stuff was really competitive..... Ugh :( This waiting game is SOO tough!!

Have you tried calling the school? I remember someone saying that they were told when the administrators were going to first meet when they called so maybe if you called they would tell you when the next round is supposed to go out. Best of luck to you and everyone!

I am actually the one who called and have gotten all the info in regards to meeting dates, and when emails would start going out for the first round...... But I am almost afraid to call because if they have caller ID I don't want them to tag me as the coocoo ;)
