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 :)

I got my mystar account information today and an email saying that my application is complete and that I should be anticipating an interview request via email over the next few weeks. I read on previous forums that the admission committee meets every second monday, so we'll see!

So for the timeline:

Submitted my nursingcas application

Nursingcas application was verified in 3-4 weeks

The very next day after it was verified, I received the supplemental application via email

Three days after submitting the supplemental application, I received my mystar account info

Now I wait for an interview invitation!

Also, nursingcas was a headache for me when I first applied. They messed up a portion of my transcript, attributing courses to the wrong schools and entering the wrong campuses etc. They also kept sending my application back to me for tweeking and it slowed down the process considerably. Not to mention that whenever I would call, their system was overloaded with calls and they would just say to call back later or I would be 8th in line lol. FINALLY after submitting it without any problems, a month and a half had passes so I called and pretty much begged them to verify it soon. They did within the week after calling, but wow it was stressful.. It was verified just two weeks before the deadline and I was hoping to be finished with the application much earlier than that.

I am not having any problems with the website. It is working fine on my end.

Hey yall! I submitted my application in the middle of September and have been reading this thread which has been very helpful! I have a 3.75 GPA and 84 TEAS score. I actually got accepted in the Fall 2015 class but had some issues preventing my attendance so I'm really hoping I get in again. I was wondering if yall benefited a lot from going to the open house or if it would be a waste of my time since I already have my application submitted?

Hello all! I just wanted to say thank you for all the helpful information in this list and I wish you the best of luck!! Hopefully we will all get the opportunity to be in nursing school together. I will share my stats as well:

Overall GPA: 3.7

Science: 3.25

TEAS: 78

I submitted my application to NursingCAS at the end of August and barely got it verified 2 days ago. Someone I spoke to from there said they have had an increase in applications this year, so verification is taking between 3-4 weeks and to contact them if it takes any longer! So don't freak if it's taking longer than the suggested 12 days. Since then I've filled out the Supplemental App and am now waiting for the emails for MyStar. Does anyone know how long it takes to receive the email about MyStar?

It took me about 3 days to receive my mystar emails.

My application is taking forever to get verified. I submitted my application on September 2, 2015. It has been over four weeks. Hopefully, my application is verified soon.
