twu spring 2012 applicants!

Hello to all!! Another spring 2012 hopeful here! I am also applying at TCC and WC. Congrats to all with a good gpa. AFter summer I will have a 3.5 with a 92% on my TEAS. I don't have any first attempt preferences though. The advisor at TWU said gpa, first attempts and TEAS are all 1/3 of a pie. I've seen anywhere from 3.2 to 4.0 getting in.

guess we'll have to wait and see..

got a 72 on teas, so i know i have to take it again, how did you study?

Viki77 · Jul 16, 2011

From what I know you are only allowed to take the TEAS exam once per application term.

Viki77 · Jul 16, 2011

Your not allowed to retake the Teas test, your only allowed one attempt!

Hello. I'm applying to UTHSC and TWU Houston. I thought about applying in other cities but I don't want to leave the Houston area. I'm not applying to PVAMU because I heard they frown upon 2nd attempt courses. So I'm praying that I get into one of these schools this Spring. I'm currently studying for the HESI and TEAS exam.

Hey all,

I have been monitoring these forums of the different schools I applied for and I just now decided to join. I too applied for Spr2012 at TWU, along with UTHSC, UTMB and UTHSCSA.

3.75, 89.7 and 7 yrs as an Army combat medic.

See you guys around hopefully.

Hello,

I'm also applying to TWU for the Spring BSN program I have a 4.0 in Science and 3.6 overall with no retakes so I'm hoping to get in. I also applied to PVAMU, UTMB, UTH, and Lamar University because I'm a firm believer that you cannot put all your chickens in one basket. Good Luck to all as we get closer to the deadline. :yeah:

Hey guys! Another hopeful here for TWU Dallas spring '12. Ugh I am so nervous and feel I might have a breakdown before November gets here. I am so ready to get it started...I got a decent score on the Teas and have a 3.9 GPA, and I have 2 of the 4 first time As (AP II and Micro). Good luck to all you guys. ♥

Hello Monkey!! I am also applying for spring. I am taking two classes this summer that will hopefully bring me to a 3.5 or 6. I took my TEAS in the fall and did pretty well BUT I have not first attempt preferences. Ms. Garcia said that I should still be competitive with my test scores even though I have no first attempt preferences.

I am applying to TCC too. I have a 4.0 in my sciences and scored a high 85% on my TEAS. I still have to take the HESI for TCC. Is it harder or easier than TEAS? I think everyone on this forum has a great chance of getting in!

Monkey891 · Jul 26, 2011

Yay! I got an 86% on my TEAS...I heard that the TEAS is actually a little harder than HESI, but I did not take it so I'm not sure. I read in another forum that TWU automatically considers those who do not get into the weekend program (2nd degree seeking students) for the traditional program...does anyone know if that's true? And if so, does it works both ways? So a 2nd degree seeker would automatically be considered for the weekend program if they don't get into the traditional? Hmmm...
