UTMB Summer 2016

Published

Hey guys! I couldn't find a thread for UTMB Summer 2016 so I decided to make one. I guess because it's a little early since they just open for applications. This is the first time I use NursingCAS so I'm not quite sure how it work yet. If anyone is familiar with NursingCAS, could you please share your experience? I sent in my transcript 3 days ago and right now I'm working on my personal statement. I saw some previous threads where people mentioned about MyStar and supplemental application/document? Is it something you will receive after you submit everything on NursingCAS?

Any information will help! Thanks in advance :)

So I received my supplemental application today and I have to complete it within one week. I submitted my nursingcas app yesterday, so processing time is super quick.

I submitted my application like 3 weeks ago and it is still being verified. You got your Nursing Cas application verified pretty quick. Usually, it takes about 4 weeks to get it verified. Hopefully, mine will be verified sometime next week.

I had applied to another program months ago so they didn't need to re-verify the application for UTMB. I think maybe it took three to four weeks to verify? Not sure.

@helga567 Did your NursingCas overall GPA seem lower than your overall GPA at your current college? Or did they make any mistakes calculating your GPA?

The reason why it's lower, is because if you have re-taken a class, they don't replace the lower grade with the higher grade. Instead, they average the two. :/

Cumulative GPA: 3.7

Science: 4.0

TEAS: 76

I'm taking 3 other classes right now so the GPA might change a bit. Really disappointed at my TEAS score bc I really think I could do so much better but I decided not to retake & see how it goes. Finger crossed!

Yeah 😕 that's exactly what happened, every class you've ever withdrawn from or any remedial classes you've ever taken are being included in your overall NursingCas gpa
