TWU Fall 2017 Nursing Applicants

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hi all,

I've decided to go ahead and start this thread for those who are in the process of applying for the HIGHLY COMPETITIVE nursing program at TWU (FALL 2017) Feel free to share your STATS, questions, and good vibes as we're all here to get accepted!

I'm personally interested in the Night/weekend program since I already have a bachelor's degree and I just finished my TWU application (since TWU requires you submit a "new student" application first, then the Nursing application) I am planning on submitting my nursing application right after I hear back..

I also have not yet taken my TEAS, but am in the process of studying for it to take in a couple weeks!

How's everyone else doing?

I got into the Dallas traditional program with 3.58 nursing core GPA and 91.3 TEAS(READING 83, SCIENCE 100, ENGLISH 83, MATH 100). Previous bachelor's degree. 55.44 on the TWU spreadsheet.

Congrats to all of you getting into the program! Those who didn't get in, do not give up! I got rejected 3 times before from a community college. Thank you all for encouragements and useful information through this journey and looking forward to meeting y'all on May 5th.

Hey guys I plan on moving to Houston in May and I need a roomate. Is anyone looking for one?

I've heard the school keeps a list of people looking for roommates, but it's kept private. So they try to match people, contact each person and then introduce you.

Would any current students be able to give me an idea about what TWU's program is like? Were you able to work part time? Did you get a nursing externship?

I went to an information session but they said they do not share specific information like this at info sessions, just at open houses. They said the next open house will not be until the fall.

Hey guys! I'm a little late in the game, but I was accepted to Houston.

Stats

GPA:3.86

TEAS 90.1

No Bump

No Previous Bachelors Degree

I am so excited to meet all of you at orientation! Also I still can't believe I got in!

Since I've moved to Texas from California, TWU was my first school of choice. This was the only school I applied to and luckily I got in. I really thought about applying to UTHSC, but I guess I won't be having to do that anymore. I previously applied in 2016 and withdrew my application because of financial circumstances, but it's now time to go and get this show on the road!

To the applicants who were not admitted, all i can say is keep trying. I understand how difficult it is having your mind set on one school and not being admitted or being able to go for x or y reason. Your time will come and you will make your own dreams come true. Stay strong and keep your head up, your bound to make it!

I'll be joining the facebook Houston group, and hopefully I can meet you all at orientation.

I need help... If there is any current student out there, I need help ranking my clinical locations!!! I have no idea how far these locations would be from me!

This is a great map divides Houston in 4 areas

I found that, but it really doesn't help me much. Because there could be a clinical in the Northwest in Memorial City, and that would be about a 30mins drive for me, which would be fine. But the map shows Southwest as closest to me, but the Southwest clinical site could be in Missouri City or Pearland which would be more like an hour drive for me and that's not my preference. See why I am confused?

does anyone know the number to call to find out where i am on the waitlist?

I believe it's 940-898-2401. It's the Denton College of Nursing department. They might have the list for you.

Thank you! I just called & I'm 6th on the list. With my stats, I didn't think I'd even be considered so I'm staying optimistic

Does anyone know what will happen to anyone who didn't turn in all the paperwork on time? My friend did turn in all the signed paper however, she didn't have the money to pay for the background check till today so she is really nervous if her acceptance is voided now?!! I am really nervous for her! She did email them but it was after 5pm so she has to wait for a response now!
