That's what they told us too for the fall 2017 applicants but we found out at the end of May

The honors program is actually only for current students, you can't apply until after your second semester

There's no interview process

There was mandatory orientation yeah! But I think they use the word mandatory loosely lol

Last Fall we got our acceptances at the end of May!

From the previous page: "I spoke to JoAnn Mendoza, she said that if you are waitlisted, UTH can let you know up to two weeks before the semester starts (May 21) if you are accepted or denied admission. She also mentioned that if you reapply you don't have to take your name off of the waitinglist and you don't have to resubmit transcripts and HESI scores because they hold them for a year. Hope this helps."

Thats mostly because of other students who last minute cannot or chose not to attend, not because of the school though

Yes it's this week

I replied to this last night but I guess it didn't post. Those who get chosen off the waitlist is solely based on the amount of people who decline their spot out of those who have already been accepted. I have no clue how many were waitlisted and made it through but there were some. Total they typically accept 120/130 out of the 1200 who apply so it's very competitive

I dont think it disqualifies you but I know they will not accept any scores after the 2nd one you took and im 90% sure they look at the most recent of those 2 even if you did better the first time. Im actually a current student at UTH so if yall have any questions feel free to ask!

Hey guys, I am a current UTH student so I wanted to give some insight. While I know this is probably the most anxious you've ever been (trust me I totally get it), keep in mind that there are usually over 1200 applicants. It is going to take a little while to get back to everyone, just be patient and remember that everything happens for a reason and there are many people who apply more than once and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. On another note, if yall have any questions feel free to ask. Always happy to help!

Okay so I've totally wondered the same thing because I'm engaged and I mean pregnancy seems to be something that is NEVER planned lol. First thing I'll say is that it is very common for some people to take more than 4 semesters to complete the program. I'm not 100% on this but someone said they weren't sure if you could do clinicals if are pregnant (I'm not even sure this is true honestly that would have to be asked) but my guess would be that if you did become pregnant you could take all the lectures as normal and maybe towards the end you would have to push off clinical for 1 semester and take it the next? Possibly? I haven't actually heard anything about this but I've wondered. However TWU doesn't work through the summers right? So you would finish at UTH much sooner than at TWU if that helps with any decision making

I mean I'm only a first semester student but I completely disagree with everything that's been said. I know admissions staff isn't the friendliest but our professors are AMAZING. The admissions staff and more of the "other" faculty are always kinda like that it's super annoying. BUT the teacher and the ones who are there to actually coach you and help you learn are incredible. There are so many people and resources provided for you to succeed and there's a huge tutoring program and everything to help anyone having trouble. I have never felt that the faculty doesn't want me to succeed. It is so much better with your actual education, the other staff though is just not the nicest. Financial aid though seems to be nice if you get the right person. But I've definitely never felt like I'm in a sink or swim situation. I have noticed that the ones that complain are the ones who don't try as hard and get mad because things aren't going their way. It's an extremely difficult program and there are so many good things about it. But they are both amazing schools. From this point out y'all need to make sure you're taking everything that you hear with a grain of salt because it is always a different experience depending on who you talk to and how they did themselves. But everyone I have talked to above me before I even started had so so so many good things to say and I have yet to be proven otherwise

Whenever you take the test at Lonestar you get to choose what sections you take. And I've heard it's cheaper than pro metric. If I remember right it was like $30 when I took it

All of the holds that y'all are talking about are what you need to complete before registering for classes! Keep an eye on the residency questionnaire, I ended up having to resubmit it because they I guess never got the email. I just assumed it was cause I did it too early and they probably lost track of it
