Hey everyone, I wanted to create a thread for current ADN students who are considering UTMB for the RN-BSN online program. Also, if anyone knows about the process or is currently attending then online RN-BSN track, I would love to hear from you! Any insight, tips or info is welcome!
I know the program is 8 months online, so I wanted for info on that if anyone can help. I already began my application in NursingCAS and am working on my resume to apply after ADN graduation.
Does anyone have any advice for when to apply? I was thinking the same month I pass the NCLEX. Does anyone know if they have rolling admission or 2-3 set dates per year?
Thanks!

I emailed them and they accept as the apps come in. I think they started accepting applications in December and stop in April. One of my friends already got accepted. I am finishing up my personal statement and will be submitting today. If they have accepted to capacity by say, Feb, then they are done! hope that helps
I just got my mystar portal password.... do you guys know how long it takes to get accepted or denied??? I feel like its taking forever

It's not a fast process, I would say to start getting everything submitted, like today! Their application is long, slow and grueling. I started in December and just now got the email to submit the secondary...which is just more work...and more money.
I have decided against UTMB so I will not be completing it. They are very extra about everything and I have heard their program is no different. You have to work for it. I have decided on sticking with UT Arlington.
Yeah it is more money, I’m guessing you’re talking about the supplemental letter!? I already did all that, I actually called an they said it takes 4-6 weeks after the supplemental is sent .... it’s super annoying buuuut I just wanna go there ??? lol, I also applied to UTA, everybody gets in to that program , just need to send my final transcript when I’m done w my adn in May .... I’m honestly still undecided .... sometimes what u think is going to be amazing doesn’t always turn out to be... so we will see! Are you working as an Rn right now?
