UTMB Summer 2017

Published

Hi future nurses! I didn't see a discussion board for the summer term of 2017, so I decided to make one myself(: Let's use this forum to discuss grades, TEAS, and the application process. This does include venting! We all know how anxiety kicks in when there's a bump in the road. Good luck to everyone that is applying!

I can't wait for the application period opens. Anyone that is re-applying, any tips?

I was wondering the same thing but I would assume we would hear from them soon just not be able to sign up for an interview till then

For those of you who have had an interview, has anyone been accepted yet? And -- do you have a time frame of when we should hear back?

Mine was also Nov 7. I'm hoping we hear something this week. The committee meets every 2 weeks. What are your stats?

I applied Summer 2017. Getting really nervous. My overall GPA is 3.71 and my TEAS score is 74.7%. With that, Can anyone tell me where I stand with getting accepted?

I'm from San Diego, California so with the standard here, I don't even qualify to apply to a lot of BSN programs. A lot of programs require 2 years of 2nd language, Organic Chemistry 1, minimum 3.8 GPA, and minimum 80% - 85% TEAS. These standards have made me feel like a failure for a long time so I don't know what to expect applying to UTMB. Hopefully, my 7 years of experience as a Navy medic will save me.

Did you get an invitation to an interview? I'm also from San Diego and know how competitive nursing is in California. I'm hoping for the same like you!

That's strange. I never had to send in my TEAS directly from the website. I've only sent in my scores through NursingCas. I'm doing a skype interview with them December 1st. I still need 5 prerequistes to take including that government prereq which I will do as an online course from one of Texas's community college if they accept me into the program.
