[madi1994]

Hi everyone! I haven't seen a topic for UTMB's Fall 2021 BSN admission cycle. What are your stats? I will post mine below.

 

TEAS: 88.7

Science GPA: 3.5

Pre-Req GPA: 3.7

Overall: ~3.7

I have worked as a patient care tech at Baylor Scott & White since August 2020.

Hey gracestanzel, when I attended the virtual open house a few days ago we were told to submit only one TEAS score. Submit the score report for the highest scoring attempt!

Hey guys, me too. 

[gracestanzel]

thank yall so much for the feedback! I forgot to ask at the open house back in december.

Hi guys I am also planning to apply to UTMB, but my GPA is not good enough. I was wondering how do they calculate GPA. Do you guys know if they take the average out of repeated courses?  for example, I have taken A&P 1 twice and I did better on the second attempt. so will they take the average out of those 2 attempts or take the highest attempt to calculate my GPA?

Hello all, I also applied for the fall semester. I have a 4.0 GPA with a 88 on the TEAS. Unfortunately my personal statement didn't really feel like anything special, so hopefully my grades will carry me. 

I was unable to attend the open house, but I was wondering if anyone that did got any information on what the schedule will be like for those that get accepted?

The personal statement is supposed to include all the information the asked right? I think I messed up on my essay. I thought I just pick one out of those they listed ?. Did anyone know how many people they take in per cycle?

I looked on the website and it says that we do need to include everything listed :/ For fall, they usually receive around 858 applications and accept 130 students. In Spring, they receive around 513 applications and accept 130 students. In Summer, they receive around 531 applications and accept 90 students.

I know the application hasn't even closed yet, but when do you think we could start hearing back? Looking at previous forums, it seems April is when the first round of acceptances go out. It will be difficult to stay patient these next few months as we wait!

[Steven Garcia]

Yeah, probably April. I remember reading 8-12 weeks after the deadline somewhere. It is definitely going to be a long wait.

I read on the UTMB fall 2020 thread that the first round of acceptances came on March 17th!

Hi,

My stats are 

TEAS-90.2

GPA-4.0 (Although tbh I had a lot of credits from AP and dual credit, so my GPA is mostly based on only one semester of college from last fall) 

CNA and BLS certified (haven't got any work experience yet)?

Hey everyone! 

My stats are: 

Overall GPA: 3.7

Science GPA: 3.4 

TEAS Score: 89.3 with lowest subscore of 83 on Science. 

I do have patient experience as I work at Memorial Hermann in the Medical Center right now! Just submitted my application a few days ago and it’s been verified so now it’s just a waiting game. Best of luck to everyone!
