Don't seat the NET (ha, that rhymed!). But really, all I did was go to a book store and review the math and reading sections. It was hard to find review books specifically for the NET so I used reviews for basic algebra tests and TAKS reading.

Does anyone know if we can check our status online on the Pioneer Portal? I know other nursing schools have the ability to do an online status check but I haven't been able to find it for TWU when I've looked.

I wasnt able to when I applied (a year ago), but that could have changed. They told me we had to wait for the letter

The wait is killing me. My general anxiety level is way up and I've developed a bad habit of scratching my arms (isn't that odd?). I attribute it fully to the bundle of nerves that I am over this waiting on admissions decision. The email said we would know our status by the end of Feb, so that leaves about 8 more days!

Does anyone know how we will find out? I'm guessing a letter in the mail but I'm checking the TWU email daily just in case.

When I found out, it was via snail mail. They didn't update anything on the computer (pioneer portal) until the day of orientation.

I know for my semester, they told us the end of February, then sent us a letter saying it may be later. I think they enjoy making us suffer while we anxiously wait

Oh well, best of luck!!

Does anyone know how TWU ranks each applicant for admission? Their website says it is based solely on the NET and GPA, but I'm wondering how much weight they give to the each. For instance, is there a magical formula that looks at GPA(.75) + NET(.25) or something like that? I'm guessing a formula is the only objective way to do it. Also, what NET sections do they look at? Math and Reading? Reading and Science?

I was notified by email today that I am accepted at TWU Houston for the fall 2008 program. Hooray! But I'm 90% sure I'll accept the offer from UTHSC bacc2 program. Anyway, if you are waiting on an answer for Fall 2008 check your email and mailboxes! I also got the acceptance packet in the mail today.

I got a call today that I have been accepted into the accelerated program for TWU! I was shocked! I was originally denied and accepted for the 2 yr program but I was told a spot opened up in fast track.

Meanwhile, I accepted an offer from UTHSC accelerated program, so now the decision between TWU vs. UTHSC. (I know, such a terrible problem to have right?)
