Kinda surprised that there isn't a topic on this already unless I overlooked it. Did anyone apply to lone stars cyfair LVN program that starts this June? If so do you know when we find out if we got in? Super anxious and currently unemployed, hoping we find out soon so I can determine if I need to start seeking full-time employment or hold out until June and work at a restaurant or something in the meantime.

you have hirsch right now?! Sorry if I missed it in the thread, I just googled her name since I couldnt find anything on ratemyprofessor lol

I planned on applying to the Rn program for the fall start at Lonestar and found out I needed to take math 0309 or something because my precalc wasn't accepted. So that really put a damper on my plans. I just want to get started sooner than later. I didn't have high hopes for UT but I figured it doesn't hurt to try, I've heard people that had a 4.0 and didn't get in where as I know someone personally with a 3.2 and she's in her last two semesters. Thanks so much for the words of encouragement, I'm going to apply to lone stars lvn for the fall start and if I don't get in I'll just retake one of my A & Ps, since I got a B in both and try again for January.

Im not sure of my overall gpa since I haven't calculated it. But I know it's probably in the twos since I have 120 or so credits from my bachelors which was a 2.3 and the additional 30 or so credits are from Lonestar where I have a 3.2 now. But unfortunately my bachelors credits are going to out weight my new credits just because there's more of them. I don't plan on taking the teas anytime soon. Since the schools I'm looking at require the hesi. But I did take that and scored an 86...

So I decided to embark on this nursing journey last summer. A short background on me, I have a bachelors in business, typical lol. My overall gpa was an extremely low 2.3. Fast forward to today, I'm taking all my prerequisites at Lonestar and I have a 3.2 which is still meh so yea. I reached out to chamberlain and I don't qualify because I don't have an overall 3.0 gpa. My my question is are there any schools out there that will accept me with my low prior gpa or do any look at just my sciences and Texas core? i plan on applying to uthealth but realistically I know that my odds are slim to none. I've also been thinking about a lvn but I've been told I'd be wasting my time because they want everyone to be an rn bsn by 2020. I spoke to an advisor at lone star who encouraged me to go the lvn route but I'm starting to feel I've been wasting my time and a lot of money for my past mistakes. please send any tips my way, I'm starting to get in serious distress all over again

Thanks so much! I ended up speaking with UT and found myself in another pickle. They do allow transfer scores, I just have to put their code in when taking the test

Hey I know this is old but just curious, what did you use or how'd you go about studying for the hesi? Your stats are UHmazing!!!

Hey guys this is probably a silly question. I plan on applying to UTH and lone stars nursing programs next week. I recall reading somewhere that the hesi needs to be taken either a week before the application deadline or a week after I believe. Just curious if I take it on the 31st will if not show up in my app? this whole nursing start was kind of a last minute thing for me and I completely overlooked the hesi while taking my prerequisites over the summer. 🙃 Im having mini heart attacks all over again since a lot of the testing centers near me are full. Also if I take the hesi at lone star can those same scores be used for uth? Lone stars website said they only accept scores from their test. I probably misread that too since I tend to do majority of my non classroom things late at night 😔 All your input is greatly appreciated. nursing noob
