[graciehamilton]

Hey y'all! I will be applying for UTMB SON for fall 2020! I couldn't find a forum for it, so I decided to start one! It is a little early but many of you know it take forever to gather everything needed for the application! Please post all of your questions, stats, etc. SO excited to apply in November!

I have an overall 4.0 GPA and 88.7 on TEAS.

My GPA isn’t all that. I feel like it could be because of my TEAS. I was honestly surprised I got accepted.
Nursing GPA: 3.6 ish

Cumulative GPA: like 3.5

TEAS overall: 88.7

(Reading 87.2, Math 100, Science 83, English 83.3)

Mine nursing GPA 3.7

Cumulative GPA 3.8

TEAS 87.7

I can't believe it, but I got accepted! I think it had a lot to do with my personal statement because my stats are otherwise not great.

Overall GPA: 3.35

Nursing GPA: 3.5ish

TEAS: 89.3 (91.5 Reading, 96.9 Math, 78.7 Science, 91.7 English; for reference, I still had not taken A&P 2 or Micro ?)

Congratulations to everyone accepted, and good luck to those waiting!

I feel like it’s all about the TEAS! Because my GPA wasn’t great either but I had an 88.7 TEAS.

I got an acceptance this morning! What does student housing look like around UTMB? Where do people live?

[Bubbletea_bb]

I just got my acceptance email!! Congratulations to everyone who got in!!?

Overall GPA: 3.7

Science GPA: 3.7 (not including Micro-in progress)

TEAS: 85%

I don't have any experience in the healthcare field other than working in an optometry office for a short time. I have a B.S. in Psychology. Not sure if having a Bachelors degree made any difference in my application. Also, fingers crossed for those who are still waiting on their acceptances!

Hey y’all! I got in this afternoon. I’m so happy and started crying!! My stats were 4.0 overall GPA, 4.0 Science GPA, 88.2% TEAS (I got a 76 on the science section), no previous degree, no hospital experience, 1 year at UH, 1 year at HCC. Best of luck to everyone and stay healthy and safe!

UTMB doesn't give you a personal email upon applying like UTA does for example right?

Correct! You’ll just get the email in whichever you put on your application.

Hello! I also got accepted and I’m crying. :’)

My stats weren’t the best but here are estimates:

Overall GPA: 3.65ish

Science GPA: 3.5ish

TEAS: 87.5

I also did not have much health care experience because I worked a lot. I just volunteered here and there. I think the personal statement carries most weight because they no longer do interviews. Shameless advertising but if anyone has any specific questions, I have a nursing instagram called: @TheRoadtoRN! I can hopefully answer your questions directly there.

Congratulations to everyone who also got accepted!
