Keep fingers crossed!!!

Well, I've decided to do both Paramedic and Nursing, and i'm applying for a BSN program in the area, problem is the program is at the University of Texas!!! It's gonna be a tough program to get into and I really want to get in, I've wanted to go to UT for a few years now but I never thought I'd actually be trying to get in!!!

Keep your fingers crossed!!! I won't know for a couple months if I get accepted, so I'm gonna be on edge for a while

YAY! I'm glad you've decided what you want to do. That must make your life at least a little less stressful.

I'm sure you will get in no problem! You seem like a smart young lady and they'd be lucky to have you in their program. Good luck!

Hi Lissa,
I'm glad to know that you are applying to the program at UT. It is a great school and it is hard to get into, so if you succeed, WOW.

Good luck with school - nursing is a GREAT profession, I should know, I've been a nurse for 33 years!!!

Being a teacher or a nurse was my childhood dreams. I hope you're able to make your dreams come true.

I finally figure it out but now it's just a sit and wait game and I'm so edgy about it. Earliest I can get in to UT is Spring, and while I would have easily gotten in straight out of high school, it's much harder to transfer in. But if I'd never gone to Texas State I would have never met my SO, so I'm not to down about it

My prayers are with you Lissa. I hope they see in you the same things that we do and you'll be in the program right away!

My aunt & uncle live in Austin, TX. Is that close to UT? I could see if they know anyone there.
