UTMB FALL 2010 (University of Texas Medical Branch)

Published

UTMB Fall 2010 Application period starts tomorrow Nov. 15, 2009

Who here is applying for it?

Btw, there is the ATI TEAS entrance exam for FALL 2010.

Anyone taken it yet?

I can't seem to find the registration for it in the atitesting.com.

Are we suppose to call them to schedule the interview?

@horselover I heard they are trying to get 100

Ou are suppose to call and scedule an interview time IF you got the email from them inviting you to have an interview. They send out invitations by email not snail mail! Wew 100 would be great I wonder how many they are interviewing!

Ahh sorry for all the spelling errors! Trying to reply from my phone isn't the easiest! Lol

@horseloverbubba yes last year they did 2 dates for traditional and 2 dates for bacc2 but then they also had a few extra exceptions here and there on other dates and also a few people got phone interviews. i interviewed last year. they had my application wrong, and by the time they called me for an interview all the spots were filled so i was waitlisted.

@michelle2841 don't be discouraged. many people with under than 4.0, even down to 3.1 have been accepted. the school prides themselves on the fact that they aren't looking for only 4.0 students-sometimes someone with a 3.0 can be a better nurse than someone with a 4.0.

Kelly - do you know what the odds usually are? I heard last semester they interviewd 100 and 70 got in? Is that around what the odds are?

Kelly- Thanks for the words of encouragement!! :)

I was just emailed my confrimation for my interview next Friday and she said I needed to do my criminal bacground check now.. i thought we did not have to do that until we were accepted?

For A&M they asked us to do the background check and we haven't even received interview letters yet.

@horseloverbubba i am not sure about the 70 out of 100. i keep thinking it ended up being in the 60s. don't quote me on that though. don't forget that about 1/4 or 1/3 decline their acceptance because they have been accepted somewhere else so that can increase the odds also. for the background check, they do that ahead of time because they wouldn't want to have to retract an acceptance letter later down the road because of something popping up on the background check.

o ok well i'm glad the reminded us in that email because I was told you didn't have to do it until after you are accepted!

As sad as this is, I just wanted to inform you guys that I received a rejection letter from Utmb in the mail today. I'm so confused because I received an interview with UT-Houston but I'm not even getting that with Utmb. As upsetting as it is I will be awaiting the decision from UT and if that doesn't work out I'll apply to some last minute community colleges. Whatever it takes.

My Gpa's are

3.75 Science

3.72 Prereq

3.05 overall

I ranked in the top 90% on teas

I have 9 W's from the past 8 years, that's the only thing I can think it is.

Good luck future nurses!!

Wow skygyrl that's crazy! I am so

sorry! Keep your fingers crossed for UT! I thought they didt send out rejection letters until after they interviewed.
