Cyfair department just emailed saying that the entire Hep B series must be completed by the deadline with the titer drawn 30 days after the last shot in order to apply.

I am in the exact situation. I went to an office across town and specified I needed a Quantitative (numerical value) and they sent me a Qualitative report two weeks later. I started the Hep B series today and emailed the school to see if I am still able to apply but no response yet. Did you have to pay again for the quantitative titer?

I don't know about Lonestar, but I know many BSN programs that do take retakes into account. That is not to say that you won't get into a program because you repeated 2-3 courses. There are lots of schools that replace the higher grade and don't take the first attempt into account. However, schools like UTMB only allows applicants to retake 2 pre-req courses. If more, then you're not able to apply. UTHSC also looks into how many classes you retake. They do take the higher grade of a class you retook, but both attempts are calculated into your overall gpa. It's just something to keep in mind because nursing programs are competitive.

I would not retake either unless you plan on only applying to Lonestar's nursing program. Schools do look at how many retakes you have especially if it was a science/major pre-req.

Fingers crossed we get in! :) Have you looked into the Early Decision Program at UTH? As long as you haven't completed the minimum pre-reqs needed to apply AND you complete one semester of ADN courses at Lonestar/HCC courses then you qualify to apply.

Thanks for letting me know! I took it last September so it's probably completely different now. This is the first time I'm applying to Lonestar. My first choice is UTH or TWU but I haven't studied for the TEAS and the deadline is soon :/

Hi guys! I'm applying to the ADN program at Cyfair as well as UTHSC. I was waitlisted for the summer but hoping I can get into either program for the spring. Total points: 7.664 HESI Score: 91.6 AP-96 Reading-94 Grammar-92 Math-90 Vocab-86 CT- 830 I plan on retaking the HESI soon. Has anyone retaken the exam? I'm wondering if the AP section has similar question topics or is completely different.

Hi jdang3! When you retook the hesi, did you find the anatomy section covered completely different topics or about the same as the first time?

Do you mind sharing your stats?

You are given the passage to answer the questions regarding that particular passage. However, you cannot go back to the question after you have answered it. Hope this helps!

Do you know if they calculated all attempts for repeated nursing pre-req scores into your OVERALL GPA? I did repeat 2 pre-reqs but was told they take the highest grade for any repeated nursing pre req to calculate your NURSING PRE REQ GPA but they never mentioned anything about overall gpa. They also told me if you repeated classes that were not considered nursing pre/science then they take all attempts to calculate your overall? I never received an evaluation when I applied for SUMMER 2018. I was waitlisted and thinking of applying for SPRING 2019.

i didn't apply for FALL 2018 but hoping to apply Spring 2019. I was waitlisted for Summer 2018 with these stats: 3.8 Science 3.8 Nursing Gpa 3.4 Overall Gpa (Failed some non-preq classes) Hesi ( 91.6 - AP 96, Read 94, 92 Grammar, 90 Math, 86 Vocab) Do you think retaking the hesi would help me get in for the spring or should I continue taking classes that I don't need to improve my overall gpa? Idk if i should just give up on UT and start prepping to take the TEAS. I would really appreciate yall's input. Good luck to those still waiting!

They look at everything like most programs. I was told that through email and it is on the website where it says admission criteria.

If you repeat a class that is a nursing pre-req then the highest grade is used to calculate your pre-req/science gpa. If you repeat a class that is NOT a nursing pre-req then BOTH grades are calculated into your overall gpa. I emailed the school last year and was sent this by a lady named Amy.

Do you remember around what time she called?

Really hoping we find out soon so we can get all our shots done. Has anyone called the school again?

Hello! I plan on retaking the HESI to improve my vocab score (86). I see that you retook it and scored pretty high. Do you have any advice on what i can use to improve my score? I have used pocket app, hesi assessment book, and a few quizlet accounts but only a few popped up on the test. Can you suggest any quizlet accounts or tips that helped you?

Your scores are great! Do you mind telling me what you used to study for vocab? I plan on retaking the HESI to improve my vocab score (86) but feel like the quizlet accounts and hesi elsevier admission assessment book are not very helpful.

No call or update in portal for me.

I'm sorry to hear that. You should apply for the fall because your stats are great. I would also suggest applying to TWU.

You have great stats! No need to stress!

Do you mind sharing your stats?

This is too much for my heart to handle

I wonder if that means acceptances will be sent out to those waitlisted or those who have nothing in their portals
