Hi and welcome Lindsey. We have all done the easy part and now the hard part begins (waiting). I feel like I'm on that JcPenney commercial, where they are standing in the window saying open, open. Gosh, who knew this could be so. Ms Sealy did you finish everything for PV, like the net.

hey jazzynurse2b,

we are right there with you.... in front of that window!

i haven't done anything for pv. i really want to get into utmb. so that's the only place that i've applied. if i don't get in, then i will apply for twu and pv. i haven't taken net or hesi a2 (well..i took the hesi a2 in 2003 for kicks and giggles).

OMG, ms sealy you are so much braver then me because I could not just bet on one school. I think I am going to apply at TWU for the fall if nothing else happens. Well until then I will keep posting in hope of someone with good news. I think its tooearly but I am checking my spam folder everyday. The lady in admissions told me to check it to make sure the CON haven't sent me anything but she didn't say when.

i plan to use my jedi mind tricks on utmb :eek: (i look so cool in this pic) and we should know by october if we got into utmb and that's plenty of time to apply for twu for the fall 2010, since the twu deadline for the college application is december 1st.

jazzynurse2b you mentioned getting a letter from the utmb con before and when i submitted my application online i got an auto reply that said: "thank you for applying to the university of texas medical branch at galveston. you will be receiving correspondence from enrollment services as well as the school you have applied to."

i got a letter from enrollment services, but not from the con. what is that letter about? is the con letter different from the interview letter?

jazzynurse2b · Jul 28, 2009

hey ms sealy,

i'm not for sure if they are the same but the lady told me that the CON should be sending me a letter to but they also was backed up.

Hi Jazzynurse2b

Did you get an auto reply message when you sent your application in? I know ms. sealy did but I didnt? I'm calling enrollment services tomorrow to make sure everything is ok

jazzynurse2b · Jul 28, 2009

hey mspink,

I didn't get an auto reply message either. Thats kind of weird.

jazzynurse2b · Jul 28, 2009

Oh, isn't it great that spring is only 4 semesters long. Yeah!!!!!! I am so excited and I haven't even been excepted.

ms.hopeful2013 · Jul 28, 2009

I know its so awesome! I'm applying to another nursing program at UTA which starts spring 2010 and I would graduate Dec 2011, but if I get into UTMB it would be May 2011 :) I dont want to get my hopes up lol

jazzynurse2b · Jul 28, 2009

MissPink,

So are you going to commute all the way or move.

ms.hopeful2013 · Jul 28, 2009

I'm going to move, bc the drive is about 5 hours. Crazy huh? I might get an apartment or move into the dorms. I went to the info session and I got to look at the dorms, well we couldnt go inside bc it was closed. But the dorms weren't as bad as I thought it would be. I hope we find out soon if we get accepted bc I would need to start making living arrangements. I'll really start looking if I get an interview! ha ha which should be around sept when they send out the interview emails!
