UTHSC-Houston BSN Summer 2013

U.S.A. Texas

Published

While I'm part of the discussion forum for the UTHSC-Houston fall 2013, I couldn't see any discussion forum for the summer 2013 entry that I decided to create a new thread. I have applied both for the summer and fall, 2013 at UTMB and UTHSC. I have submitted all my application documents to both schools and I'm patiently waiting for interview/decision. Anyone in the same situation?

Hi there,

Yes I have already completed all my prereqs, I have a BS in Biology, so I only had to take nutrition and sociology last summer as I never took them in under grad. Yeah it is def scary to leave my full time job, I've been working for 4 yrs now, and I do like my job, but I think this career path will be the best. I eventually want to to NP or stay in research, but as a research nurse though. I only applied to 2 programs so I understand, I really would be happy getting into either program, but UT would be def the best since I live so close to the med center. Oh and I wish they had interviews also, since some applicants may not have 4.0s but may be great candidates for the program. I have an overall GPA of 3.6 and a science of 3.4 and I'm worried about not getting in...:down:

I'm still working on 2 of my prereqs this spring... micro and stats. Unfortunately my business stats class did not count, so now I'm in stats... I'm sure that is why my status is still showing incomplete...

Well and even if a student has a perfect score.... who's to say that would make them a good candidate or better yet a good nurse... The interview process would be nice.

I'm in the same situation as far as my stats go... I'm worried about getting in as well.....

Congrats dream99!! :D

Thanks txgirl7788!!!

Kimbers2882 I got a transcript evaluation mailed to me around the third week of nov.

But you applied to the Spring start correct??

I officially accepted admission online today!! Can't wait until then! It's going to be hard work but it'll be worth it in the end. ;)

Kimbers2882 Nope, I applied for the summer program. I just applied really early cause I had already taken the HESI and figured I might as well submit my application soon. I would give them a call if you still haven't got an eval.

I applied back in November for the summer program and its been so nerve racking! I'm applying to five schools because I keep hearing how competitive the application process is, so I'm paranoid I won't get in anywhere, an I'm in a time crunch! - basically if it was affordable and had an accelerated program then I applied. (yeah, only five universities in all of TX met this criteria)

I haven't heard anything since the initial confirmation that they received the application and the access info for myUTH - despite emailing lots questions to any and all email addresses listed on their website. I guess to get answers you have to call?? From what I've read here, when the status online says "initiated" it means that they receive it, but haven't looked at it? I took the hesi back in October under their school code, so I didn't have to send them the scores myself. I took A&P II, Micro, stats, nutrition and medical terminology in the fall, so I sent them an updated transcript after grades were posted, but my stupid school just sent it this week - with so many prereqs I hope they get it and actually look at it.

Comparing my transcript to their online list of Prereqs I think I'm good. It just says six hours of english comp -- I took english I and technical writing for my BA, so that should be okay. I'm enrolled in texas government this spring (but it ends may 12th, when would classes start??). The only thing I'm worried about is the intro to sociology class - I haven't taken any soc classes but my degree is in Anthropology – and they’re so similar!!

I don’t know exact GPAs because I haven’t calculated them, but when I finished my BA I had like a 3.3.

I’ve taken 30 hours of prereqs at lonestar last summer/fall – including A&PI/II, psych, micro, stats, etc and got all A’s and one B.

I got a 96 on the hesi.

It majorly sucks if it still won’t be until march/april to hear something! I’m also applying to UTMB and have an interview next week. I hear that they get back to you 2-4 weeks after the interview. I Just want to get a “You’re in!” from one school! Then I can relax….

I was on the waiting list for spring 2013, but they called and accepted me the Summer semester

Interesting.... I sent my app in back in late Aug and my HESI score in Sept. I haven't heard anything and my status shows incomplete... I'm guessing that's because I'm taking my last 2 prerequisites this spring.

Did they call you or email with your acceptance?? I haven't had a transcript eval yet either... This is all starting to make me nervous, especially knowing people who submitted early are starting to get their acceptance.

Any info is greatly appreciated.

I'm taking my last 2 prereqs right now as well, but my status says complete. You should call them if you haven't received an evaluation yet, because I got mine by mail about 3 weeks after I submitted my application.

Do you know when they will let us know if we're accepted?? I got an acceptance letter from another school but I really want to go to UTHSC-Houston.

So I emailed them and was told "All applicants will be notified if they are accepted or denied from the program by mail on April 15, 2013". I hope this means by April 15 since it seems like people have already been accepted.

I just received an e-mail from UTHSC to log on and check the status of my application. And I'm accepted!! I didn't think I would hear so early. I submitted my application 9/18/12. Good luck to everyone else!!
