This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Has anyone gotten off the waitlist for UTMB? I got into TWU Dallas but was trying to figure out my chances of getting off the waitlist for UTMB and how long I should continue waiting.

Hey! I’m currently a student at UTMB, and once it gets closer to summertime, one of us will be making an “official” fb group for you guys that’ll also include all of the second year students. Y’all can def make one now though! Just a heads up on what’s to come. 🙂
 
Has anyone completed an online Medical Terminology certification course? I would rather complete the requirement this way, rather than a course at a Community College.

Does anyone have any insight on a good online certification course/company/website?

Yes I did mine online at a community college it was easy
 
Has anyone received their acceptance letter in the mail from TWU yet? I received both acceptance and the enrollment info e-mail but just curious about the letter!
 
I received my email from ACU. As of now I'm on the waitlist! I pray I'm able to get in. Feeling a little discouraged

I'm accepted to TWU Denton but haven't received my mailed letter yet. I've been checking every day! Lol.

Don't give up hope yet! 🙂 Out of the 3 schools I've heard back from, I've received a decline, acceptance, and waitlist.
 
I was accepted into ACU also! However I already confirmed acceptance to UTMB, so that will open up a spot on the waitlist!

Thank you! Most likely, I was accepted into another program as well but it's out of state and I would like to be closer to home. Are you going to accept?

Most likely! I have been invited to two interviews but I don’t want to miss out on this opportunity for a potential acceptance.
 
I just declined from Texas Tech and will be declining soon from ACU so there should also be openings!

I also was waitlisted from ACU. Have you contacted them to see how many were accepted off of the waitlist last year? Or to see if they will tell you where on the list you land? I feel like most school do not want to tell prospective applicants that info.

I am also feeling discouraged. I have been waitlisted from one other school and rejected from the others.

I called this morning! I spoke with a graduate admissions office and she informed me that the ranking and the amount of people on the waitlist is confidential, but she said that people do get admitted in off of the list. They don't have a cutoff date like most schools so they will accept students up until August before classes begin.

I have created a facebook group for TWU-Houston c/o 2021 if anyone wants to join. I'm moving to Houston from Arkansas and I'd like to get to know my classmates! The group name is "TWU Class of 2021 MOT Houston".

It should be public, so I think you can join on your own! If it doesn't work just message me your name or email and I will add you!

I seem to be unable to find the group! Also, my TWU webadvisor says anticipated graduation of August 2023.. does yours say that?
 
Yorit06 said:
Mine says anticipated 8/13/22. I'm sure it will all be corrected once we are able to register for classes.

You can add me on FB and I can add you to the group. My name is Tiffany Yori. Or you can message me your name or email and I can add you that way. Sorry I've never made a FB group before so I'm not sure how to fix all that!

how long is your masters program?

Anyone accepted to Texas Tech and know of any resources for us to find roommates?

I know there’s a facebook group for class of 2021, you could try there.

When did you hear back from them?
 
I was accepted at ACU, but declined my offer today since I got off the waitlist at Texas Tech!! I requested to be on the FB page for TTU, so if anyone could add me to it that would be great 🙂 Congrats to everyone on their acceptances and for those of you still waiting, keep your faith and have patience. This is my second year applying... your time will happen and it will be perfect!
 
I was accepted to UTEP and ACU but will be declining those offers, so I hope someone will be able to take my spots there! 🙂
 
Declined an offer at UTHSCSA, it was a difficult decision.
But hopefully someone will be contacted soon!

Don't give up everyone!

Have you been able to find a Facebook page for our Dallas class? If not, I am considering making one to try and meet some of our classmates!

I was told that they are waiting until admissions are more final to make the Facebook pages, and then the current student president will get the pages started. I wish they'd do it soon, I want to meet my cohort!
 
Hello guys I’m new here! I just got accepted into UTHSCSA and couldn’t be more excited I was wondering if there’s any FB group for the cohort or other group that I may be missing out on. Thank y’all and can’t wait to meet everybody else 🙂
