UTMB Spring 2012

Published

Hey Guys!

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread for all UTMB Galveston's Spring 2012 traditional bsn applicants. Have you all started to apply yet or at least looked at the application? What do you think? How are your personal statements/testing going? If you guys have anything worth discussing please post and good luck to all!

Freshstart- I had my interview yesterday as well!! I'm nervous as to when we'll hear back because there was a time when people were finding out if not the same day then the next day after interviewing. But my interviewer told me I would hear back next week :-( also, I have a feeling my chances might be slim b/c I told them I've already been accepted at Houston Baptist and accepted my spot. But only b/c I hadn't heard back from UTMB! Very anxious over here :/

Ladydeeb- Yes you still need TEAS

I heard back yesterday, but was surprised by the outcome. I have been accepted...to the BACC2 program. I was going to be waitlisted for the traditional. I accepted, but I am a little frightened about what I have gotten myself into. It is going to be intense!! I hope you hear back soon and get positve results!!

Ladydeeb- yes you have to have interviews

Freshstart- CONGRATULATIONS! But I have a feeling if You interview tuesday and have already heard back, they probably decided no on me :-( I hope they tell me something soon!

But I'm sure you'll do great! Best of luck!

I was called by a member of their staff and they explained the situation to me. I could stay on the waitlist for traditional or accept admittance to the accelerated program. I went for the sure thing.

Can someone give me a phone number to check on the status...I was interviewed and haven't heard anything at all. I've already accepted to another program but would still like to know my status with UTMB.

Hey guys I just wanted to ask everyone on here for prayers and tell you my horror story about getting accepted but not knowing it. This Tuesday I received an email from the SON stating that I had been accepted the Spring 2012 semester but that I had missed the dealine to accept the offer and so my spot had been given to someone else. I NEVER RECEIVED THE EMAIL STATING I EVEN GOT ACCEPTED!! I have searched through my entire email account (spam, deleted messages, even drafts) and there is no email! They have agreed to put me on the waiting list so I need prayers that a miracle happens. And please be sure you are calling and checking MyStar everyday! I don't want this to happen to anyone else! Also, if you have a spot at UTMB and have already decided or if you do decide that you are not going to go there, if you could PLEASE call and tell them so they can get someone else in. Don't wait to just not show up for orientation. Congrats to everyone who has been accepted. OH and also they told me that they are full now and just interviewing for the waiting list.

Oh I would be fuming mad, they can really have their crap screwed up. I hope you are #1 on the list and get in!!! I know a good handful that got in during orientation!! I'll say a prayer for you tonight!! Hang in there. And Yes, people, call call call!! You may get on their nerves, but if they would work on their organization, the calls wouldn't be necessary... The paper acceptance packet should immediately follow on the heals of the email acceptance so something this can't happen. I'm so sorry, but I hope it all works out and I meed you in January!! :redbeathe
