Just posting this for those of us applying to UTMB this fall. I figured we can communicate about the admission process while it is going on.
Who's completed the application so far, mind sharing your stats?
Mine has already been verified & I've submitted the supplemental application as well.
Question for those of you that have access to MyStar already, the Scholarship Application tab is available for me on MyStar but when I try to login to that specific page/tab, it just says "The username you entered cannot be identified". Have you guys had the same issue when trying to log in to the "Scholarship Application" page? I can login to MyStar just fine though. I'm wondering if I just have to wait until after admission in order to be able to log in to that page and apply for institutional scholarships?
Hi everyone,
This might be a stupid question, since it’s sorta clear on the application, but do all five science courses have to be completed by the application deadline? As in today? I thought I could apply while working on my last science class which is Microbiology. On the “questions” tab on the application it states all five have to be completed, but on the “pre-requisites” tab it says only two have to be completed? I think I messed up and now I won’t be able to apply for the Fall semester…. ?

I just checked NursingCAS and I believe that information about only needing two might be outdated from older admission terms. I would contact admissions and ask about this though, it never hurts to ask. But yes the UTMB website means that you need all five physical sciences completed when you submit your application, not a single one can be in progress.
I know it sucks but at least you can try in the Spring and there are fewer applicants than in the fall so you have a higher chance of acceptance. Don't let this discourage you!

I was having the same problem so I contacted financial services and she said the application for Fall 2022 students won’t be open until the end of July. Hope this helps!

I've seen applicants in previous topics within this forum with similar stats get accepted. Remember that they also consider what you wrote in your personal essay, as well as any previous work/volunteer experience, not just your GPA and test score :). I wouldn't spend too much time stressing about this, all we can do is wait!
