UTMB Spring 2017

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hello to all! I am applying to UTMB in Galveston for the Spring 2017 start. I have not seen any posts about this particular semester, so I thought I would reach out. Any body applying, gotten information, how was your TEAS test, pre-reqs, etc.?

I look forward to hearing from everyone!

Personally, this is my second degree as I have my first in Business Management & Entrepreneurial Studies. My mom is a nurse and has inspired me in so many ways, and I am excited to see where this journey leads me.

I made an 82.7% on my TEAS V and I am pretty nervous about this as I am not too sure how it compares or what the norm is. I hope everyone is having good luck in their application process and let me know how it is going for ya'll?

Thanks!

How did you withdraw your acceptance? I am going to accept from another institution but want to do it as professionally as possible. Thanks!

I emailed Elizabeth Botello ([email protected]) thanking her and the school for their time and interest, and requested to withdraw my acceptance. She should reply with a confirmation email!

Did anyone else's "compliance training" disappear off of their To-Do list without them ever having actually done any training?

Yes, way more competitive but only because they don't look at volunteers, internships, certifications, etc. However, if you look online and compare both, it will tell you pros and cons of both UTMB and UTHealth, can also do that with TWU. Best of luck wherever you decide to attend and best of luck to those who are attending. #Futurenurses

My goodness! How did you get waitlisted at UTMB but got accepted to UTH? Isn't UTH supposed to be more competitive?

I got accepted to UTMB, TWU, and UTH. Will probably stay with my UTMB acceptance.

Honestly, I have no idea which school is the best. I want to decline the other 2 schools so that others may hurry up and get off the waitlist.

Has anyone been taken off the waitlist??

Yes, one of my friend got in couple days ago and she was on the waitlist. :) and she interviewed end of sept or beginning of oct. I hope this helped :)

Good luck everyone!! Just remember that god always has better plans for us than we expected. :) keep smiling and moving forward.

Does anyone know when the last possible date to be taken off the waitlist is?

I interviewed for the waiting list near the end of September, and I still haven't heard back from anyone. Not an email, or a letter, or a call. Is there a place or a website I could visit to see if i am on the waiting list or not? Thanks.

They (Katherine Rosen at UTMB) told me that you could get called and taken off the waiting list as late as the first day of school.

Hey, do you guys know if the school is still taking people off the waitlist? and has anyone been taken off of the waitlist as of late?

To anyone that got in, have y'all received your schedules, got books, and parking passes yet?

Yeah we got our schedule last friday and people are getting the books on utmb fb page now until first couple weeks of school. Parking passes we can't get until first week of school because we need our badge for it. :) I hope this helped :)

Yes thank you. Do you know anyone in the program yet?
