Hello! I'm a pre-nursing student hoping to start in the UTHealth Cizik Pacesetter program for Fall 2025. I'm starting this thread to connect with other pre-nursing students aiming for the program, as well as current students who might be able to answer our questions. If you're comfortable, please feel free to share your stats, questions, comments, or any concerns. We're all in this together, and hopefully, we'll be celebrating our acceptance together!

For those of you who have gotten in, I'm considering and would like to know your stats on my chances of getting in!

3.67 overall GPA (still taking some more pre-reqs, so it will go up)
