TWU Spring 2010

hi everyone! I was just thinking, I have not asked everyone here to which TWU they are applying to? I am for Dallas campus. What about you guys?

o sorry, i just went back and re-read. haha, no need to re-post. O, who here is getting the 0.4 bump?

that's great for you! I should have taken my stuff there at TWU, but I didn't have time to apply to the school and wait for acceptance before I started my pre-reqs. The day I realized I wanted to do nursing was the day before summer II started last summer. So, I basically had 1 day lol.

yes, i did hear that also. on the other hand, I have also heard there is more to it than just those 2 numbers. So, who knows? Personally, I beleieve it is just the HESI and GPA that they are looking at. I have heard that there is an equation that they use and plug those 2 numbers (GPA and HESI) into it. One time, I bravely called ***** at the Dallas campus and asked her if that was true lol, and she said yes, but we were not suppose to know that. I quickly said bye and hung up. Does anyone know about this equation? That would definately be helpful to know about. Someone on here also mentioned that the HESI was going to count for more than the NET used to. So whoever mentioned that might know.

Kimmy088, don't doubt yourself, although i know it is easy for me to doubt myself at times. We all go through that too, but then that just makes us feel worse about ourselves and that makes for a really long time to wait until October! So, don't feel bad pls. If you have done everything that you can possibly do, then that is your best, right? So many people on past boards doubted themselves, but they still got in. which is amazing. I am sure it will happen this time for us too! Is this the first time you are applying? Also, don't worry about your GPA not being good enough. As long as it is up there, 3.7 and above, I think you will be fine. I am not saying anyone who has below a 3.7 is not good enough; I am just being realistic and looking at past people who got in and what TWU said is competitive. Also, it is just the nature of how competitive nursing school is. It is sad when a 3.6 is considered "low".

in addition to the previous post I made,
I meant 3.7 and above for the Dallas campus. For the Houston campus, I think it will be lower like a 3.6 and maybe just even a 3.5 since they are taking more people this year because of the fast track going on there next summer. Statistically speaking, Houston has always been lower since TWU's main campus is in Denton, which is closer to Dallas.

I am no pro, so anyone else's thoughts on this?
