Tarrant County College fall 2013

U.S.A. Texas

Welcome! I thought it was time to start a new thread for TCC fall 2013 applicants and future hopefuls. I've followed the past 2 threads for TCC and there are at least a handful of us finishing up pre-requisites this summer and fall.

Feel free to join the conversation and pass the word to others.

I turned in my application today. I have a 3.75 and a 89.5 on my HESI. I really hope I get in! Good luck to everyone that is applying.

Ugh! Are is anyone applying with a 3.5 GPA ? I'm hoping to get in, but nervous that I'm not. I did score a 94 on the HESI, hopefully that helps.

I think having a 94 on the HESI will still make you competitive. From my understanding they just average your science GPA and HESI together and rank you based on the average.

For example... Your overall score would be a 90.75 and that would fall between somebody with say a 3.75 GPA + 87 HESI (90.36 overall) and a 3.75 + 88.8 (90.86)

From what I've seen from previous semesters threads, that seems like you would have a good shot at making it in

Hello everyone! I'm new to this thread and am applying to TWU and TCC for Fall 2013. I just took the HESI (made a 93) and turned in my application. I have a question, how do you calculate your nursing GPA? Is it just the 4 sciences? I made an A in A&P 1 and 2, an A in micro and an A in chem. Does anyone know if that makes me a competitive applicant?

Based on previous semesters, grades overrule HESI scores. The 3.5s that have made it in were on the alternate list first.

Specializes in Pre-op, OR, & PACU.

From what I am reading you have a 4.0 for your sciences and a 93 on your Hesi. If that is correct, your science grades make you very competitive and your Hesi score is fairly high as well. I turned in my application today with a 4.0 and a 96.5 on the Hesi and the advisor I spoke with was very optimistic about my chances of getting in. I felt bad, there were lots of applicants who were being counseled about their options because of their grades and I was done in under 3 minutes once I sat down with the advisor. With your grades/scores, I'm guessing that you might get offered spots both schools. :)

I also went in today and turned my stuff in. I have a 4.0 science GPA and a 93.5 HESI and she said I was very competitive; so you and I are in the same situation.

Everyone has such great scores!! :)

Does anyone know how many applied and how many they are accepting?

Last semester they selected 10 alternates with a total of 130 students being accepted into the nursing program! Around 400 applied to the program

Hello everyone !

I turned in my application with 3.75/86.

My HESI score is utterly frustrating..

I don't think I am competitive enough compared to everyone else here.

All I can do is wait..

Good luck everyone !!!

May seems so far away. Lol
