UTHSC-Houston Fall 2012 Applicants

U.S.A. Texas

Published

Hello everyone! This thread is for everyone applying to the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston. I believe they will be accepting applications from January 15-April 1, so the sooner the better! Their admission requirements are pretty standard:

Minimum Pre-Req Gpa: 2.75

Minimum Science Gpa: 3.0

Minimum HESI A2 score: 75% or higher on all required sections - math, reading comprehension, vocabulary/general knowledge, grammar, anatomy and physiology, critical thinking.

My info is really not that competitive, but I'm going to give it a shot anyways -

Pre-Req Gpa: 3.30

Science Gpa: 3.0 (Barely cutting it! :crying2: )

Overall Gpa: 3.28

Hesi score: 93.3% overall, with my lowest score being a 90.

My gpa is not the best, but I still have 3 more classes to finish this semester, and I'm aiming for all A's! I think the best thing I have going for me is my HESI scores.

Anyone else planning on applying? What are your stats? Any questions? Lets hear them, and good luck to all who are applying!

Does anyone know if they combine repeated courses, or if they just take the highest grade?

Does anyone know if they combine repeated courses, or if they just take the highest grade?

They take the highest grade.

When courses are repeated, they take the most recent grade, which could be lower.

Is there anyone on this discussion forum that is already in the UTHSC PhD program? If so, I would love to hear from you!

Thanks,

Hey everybody!

I was just curious if anyone has heard of a situation like mine before. I was accepted in fall of 2012 for generic BSN @ UTHSC-Houston and was accepted, but was not done with all my pre-reqs yet. Does anyone know if my chances are pretty good for getting in this time around(fall 2013)?

Thanks and good luck to you all!

You either get in or you don't. You can estimate a probability, but a good chance is not the same as a real acceptance. It's hard to be patient, but worrying about it doesn't help at all.

lvl1, may I ask what I could expect as pay as a pca at MH? I have a few years experience and do blood, and I want to know what to ask.

For anyone who is currently enrolled or graduated - did they drug test you throughout school at random times? I'm concerned about some of my medications affecting possible test results. I know they test you to get in, but I haven't been able to figure out who I contact regarding my medications, since according to HIPAA you can't tell the drug testing center what medications you're on.
