2. what do you need to really get into UT Houston BSN program?

   prenursing9892 replied to cbank's topic in Texas

   Hey, so sorry I didn't respond sooner...I haven't really been on here lately. Really, you have nothing to worry about. You have great GPAs, and I believe that you have a great chance of getting in. My GPAs when I got in were a 3.7 prereq and 4.0 scie...

3. UTHSC (Houston) Spring

   prenursing9892 replied to katybusymom's topic in Texas

   Ha, thanks, stash11! You have great stats! In my opinion, the HESI is pretty easy; it's definitely not something you should stress over. There are sections on reading comprehension, vocabulary, grammar, math, and critical thinking besides the a&p...

4. UTHSC (Houston) Spring

   prenursing9892 replied to katybusymom's topic in Texas

   It's hard to say. I'm not sure what they're looking for now, but I don't think that your overall GPA is a big factor in the admissions decision, especially since your GPA is a result of something that happened so long ago! Your science GPA/pre-req GP...

   The application deadline for UTMB Spring '12 has passed - you missed it by just a week if you were hoping to apply for the spring start. Fall '12 deadline is January 15, 2012, and applications will be accepted starting November 15. I'm surprised you...

   prenursing9892 replied to chi2kool's topic in Texas

   If I were you, I would call and ask because there's no harm in doing that, BUT it says specifically on their website, and on the application form, that everything (transcripts, HESI A2 scores, and the form itself) should be submitted by the Sept. 1st...

   prenursing9892 replied to feistyaggie's topic in Texas

   **That is, if y'all are looking for apartments on the rail line in order to avoid commuting. Of course, there are several apartments not located on the rail line that are nice, too.

   prenursing9892 replied to feistyaggie's topic in Texas

   Hello nicole11 & thedutchess12! I've been accepted for the traditional program that starts in August, and have also been looking at housing in the med center. I know this isn't really specific, but I've just been looking at apartments using rent....

9. what do you need to really get into UT Houston BSN program?

   prenursing9892 replied to cbank's topic in Texas

   The only experience I have comes from a health science tech program that I did in high school for 2 years, and from volunteering at Texas Children's Hospital for a year about 8 years ago when I was 15 - none of these things were included (or can be i...

10. uth 2012 spring hopefuls

    prenursing9892 replied to chi2kool's topic in Texas

    You only have to have 40 of 60 hrs completed by the time you apply; of the 40, 8 must be from the sciences (Micro, A&P, or Chem I; Nutrition, even though it is a science course, does not count). The HESI A2, your transcripts, and a $30 applicatio...

13. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    prenursing9892 replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing

    SiberianPuppy, I think your last post clarifies your position more. I hate to say it, but the first few times you posted it seemed like you were trying to put down people who decide to attend community colleges; i.e. saying that an employer would pic...

14. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    prenursing9892 replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing

    That's true. SiberianPuppy, did you apply to any ABSN programs? If you haven't, do so, because that will be your best shot at getting compared to similar candidates.

15. Just Rejected From Nursing School - Most Ridiculous Admissions Office

    prenursing9892 replied to guest_57352's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Yeah, I agree with your point about expenses and such...many people attend community colleges because they are the easiest, most affordable, and most accessible places to take prerequisite courses. When it comes down to it, most of the prerequisite c...
