UTMB Spring 2018

Published

Hello everyone! I plan on applying to UTMB for Spring 2018 entry and can't find a post on it, so I decided to make one! I am taking my TEAS end of April. I already have a degree from the University of Houston in Health Communication and minor in Nutrition. I am finishing my last two prerequisites (A&P2, Microbiology) right now at a community college. Anyone else looking to apply? Deadline is coming up next month, so I thought it would be awesome to get a group thread going! Would love to hear from others applying!

Watch your email closely guys. I received my invitation for an interview early this morning. I submitted my application around May 18th.

I'm sure most have noticed but a mass email to all applicants was recently sent because of the amount of people asking about interviews and what's going on, so check your emails to read that

Do they look at the whole natural science GPA or just the classes for the science requirements?

I have a previous bachelors in Bio therefore some of my science classes are not really important.

Hi Y'all!

So I applied for Spring 2018 and have not heard anything back other than that mass email. I have been reading all the comments and if I understand correctly there is still hope to get an interview? If we do not receive an interview that basically means we have been denied?

Thank you!

From what is known there will be about 4 waves of interviews going out so don't fret about it, the individuals who have heard back submitted their applications early such as myself..more interviews to come so just keep on smiling :)

They just take an elective science, ap1, ap2, a chem, nutrition, and microbiology as your sciences that are looked at, hope that helps and remember having a degree in bio will definitely help you :)

Hi! My names Autumn, I'm a little late with the discussion but I've been religiously checking this post and decided to join in! I sent my application in the first week of April, recieved my supplemental about a week later, and my My star info I wanna say a week or so later? My stats are as follows:

3.8 overall gpa

4.0 science GPA

TEAS score was 84.7 overall

I received my invite for an interview Friday July 14th and interviewed July the 20th! The interview was very laid back, they just asked questions like what your support system was like, family life, study habits, and what steps you would take if you found yourself not doing well in a class. I've been checking my email/my star religiously ever since. Today my to do list updated, I called the school and asked what that meant and they just told me to have my finalized transcript sent directly to the school.
