Hey! I wanted to make this post because I didn't see a thread for those who are applying to UTMB Galveston Fall 2018. I know application hasn't open yet, but I just took my teas score. I have no idea if it is good enough for UTMB standards. I currently have 40 hours, but by the end of this semester I will have around 53 credit hours. I have no idea how I should even start my personal statement. Would you guys be willing to share your stats? Any questions or comments please feel free to post! :)
My stats are
TEAS:
82% Overall
-Reading: 85.1%
-Math: 87.5%
-Science: 78.7%
-English and Language Use: 75.0%
GPA: 3.9 Overall
What was the interview like?! Any tips you have would be great! :) my interview is on 3/29!
I was SO SO SO nervous going into the interview, but the professor that does the interviews is AMAZING. I was 100% calm within 2 minutes just because of how relaxed and easy to talk to she was! I prepared by writing down what attributes are most important for nursing school and how I have developed these attributes (with examples), challenges I will face in nursing school. I also did the exact same for actually being a nurse and thought about how I can battle the major problems nurses face in today's society. I RECOMMEND DOING THE SAME!! Good Luck! :)
Has anyone explored other avenues for nursing school? Just wondering if it is across the board hard to get in to any school. Was curious how other schools handle admission, like Baylor, UT Health, Texas Woman's, Tech. Are they equally competitive, making it difficult to be accepted? This process is exhausting! Well, the waiting part anyway! Lol

I applied for UtHealth as well and their process is easier but they only base it on stats. You don't have to do anything other than take the Hesi, send transcripts, and pay application fee. They do not do interviews to my knowledge. I think across the board it is difficult to get in anywhere! Don't be discouraged if you don't get in somewhere your first time. It's common to have to apply more than once.

I applied to UT Houston and the application process was easier however, they are extremely competitive as well! I head they get 1000+ applicants! As well, majority of the students they admit have a 90+ on the HESI!
