charmalarm Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) Silly question ahead: who is the director for the program?

Our current interim program director is Dr. Townsend, but he only has the job until December. Our new program director, Dr. Philpot, starts mid-December. He's got some great ideas for the program overall; I'm definitely optimistic about his on-boarding! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futuretxpac Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Does anyone know how many people they accepted from the interview on 9/17? And will they be sending out rejection emails or waitlist emails? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No set plan in place that we're (the students) are aware of, but my **personal opinion** is that he is focusing on cohesion, structure, and organization (i.e., reinforcing knowledge transfer in small group settings, faculty mentorship).

I received my under review email on 8/7, and I haven't heard back about an interview. From what I can tell from previous years' threads, that's generally not been good news as they tend to go in order of under review email dates for interviews. I hope I'm wrong, and we are still in the running for interview invites! Yeah me too! I was verified and got my supplemental in on 6/20. I got my under review on 8/8 and still haven't heard anything. I know someone who got their application in earlier than me, but got an under review on 8/30. Maybe they are reading applications out of order? Do y'all think there would be any benefit in calling?

Guest MPA21 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 So it look like they didn’t send out the invitations for Oct 1st all in the same day? Because I see some people got the invites for Oct 1st on different days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAseeker2018 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 For those of you who have interviewed, was anything mentioned regarding the school's accreditation status? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did address it. Sounds like a staffing issue, but they have the new director starting in December. They told us that if you are accepted to a program while it's accredited, you will still be considered to graduate from an accredited program even if they lose accreditation while you are attending.

AAK30 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Random question, but I'm wondering if anyone knows what exactly UTMB is referring to when they consider science GPAs. Because on their admission requirements section, they refer to it as "science GPA" but then in parentheses they list "bio, microbio, immunology, a&p, genetics, chemistry." So I'm curious if anyone has an understanding of whether they are actually looking at the CASPA science gpa calculation, or if they really only take into account the GPA of just those science classes that they listed. If anyone knows, thank you in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called a week or so ago and asked someone ( not sure exactly who that was ) and she told me that she checked and I was under review, but she was unaware of the email I was talking about. I'm still confused by this because everyone is saying that they received this! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtexasb Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Can any of the current students say how many interview dates UTMB had last year and how many applicants are in each interview round? I know on average they interview about 280 to 300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
