  1. UTHSCSA Spring 2013

    girlwarrior replied to Jisna210's topic in Texas Nursing

    I love using e-books. I didn't use them first semester, but I wish I would have. Second semester I used them, and loved it. The only downfall is you can't sell them back, but you can rent the

  2. UTHSC- San Antonio GPA

    girlwarrior replied to Topher53's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'm currently a UTHSCSA nursing student (now third semester). Here are some averages on the scores from those who were accepted: -Traditional (Spring 2012- start date): Accepted: 126, Pre-Req GPA:...

  3. UTHSCSA Spring 2013

    girlwarrior replied to Jisna210's topic in Texas Nursing

    This page has been pretty quiet! A lot of us "upperclassmen" and/or Peer Advisors have been wondering about this. Anybody make a FB page? If so, just put the name here and we can probably help answer...

  4. UTHSCSA Spring 2013

    girlwarrior replied to Jisna210's topic in Texas Nursing

    For the class of December 2013 (started Spring 2012) the average TEAS was 76.77. For the class of May 2014 (started this Fall) the average was 79.1. Accelerated class of May 2012-- 86.3 Accelerated...

  5. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think there is a waiting list. Yes, you need your pre-reqs. After that, then apply. After you apply, then they will send an invitation to take the TEAS. I believe to have a fighting chance to get in...

  6. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    Congrats to those of you who were accepted. For the end of the alphabet... don't fret! When I received my acceptance e-mail last year it wasn't until 5 or so in the afternoon. (My last name starts...

  7. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    Usually there's 500-600 applicants for 140-ish available seats. My semester (currently first semester) there was only around 300. I've heard there was more for fall 2012 because of glitches from my...

  8. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    *The e-mail was the admission letter, btw. So, you all should hopefully be hearing something

  9. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    Just looked through my e-mails and... Three weeks exactly, in an e-mail. :) We didn't have "as many" applicants, so I don't know if that may affect the amount of time or

  10. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    I would start now just in case. I believe there's a Hep A/Hep B combo that takes a shorter amount of time. They will work with you, BUT you wouldn't be able to register until all of your immunizations...

  11. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    For me, the only really difficult course is Pharmacotherapeutics. What I've already noticed that when you get to the drugs, you have to understand the basics in order to understand the rest. It'll end...

  12. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    No problem. I'm glad to help. :) If y'all have anymore questions feel free to ask.

  13. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    @LiveLaughLoveLearn: I was born & raised in SA so I don't really know how it correlates to Dallas. But from what I've heard from some of my classmates, housing is pretty affordable. I would...

  14. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    My advice: Don't stress out. They'll try to scare you during orientation and/or the first couple of weeks of school... I suppose to prepare you for the worst just in case. But, really, don't worry....

  15. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think my pre-req GPA was around a 3.6-3.7-ish. I'm not sure because my SAC cumulative/degree GPAs are different and it doesn't include all of the classes. My TEAS score was kind of low though. I...

  16. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    Thank you & good luck to you all! I know the waiting game is a killer... It's worth it in the end though. Yes, there's a choice between a 13" or 15" Macbook Pro, and a 14" or 15" Dell Latitude...

  17. UTHSCSA Fall 2012

    girlwarrior replied to polysaturate's topic in Texas Nursing

    Hi y'all. I'm a current first semester student and was just browsing through. :) For my semester we we told it was a substantial lower amount of applicants (300-ish) and 140 admission invitations were...

  18. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    Looking back at my e-mails, the supplemental app was due 9/19 and we got asked to send info for a Background Check 9/20 (which was quite weird) then on 10/10 we got our admission offers through...

  19. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    @Texas51 No, you apply directly to UTHSCSA through NursingCAS. Yes, after a few weeks you'll get an invitation from UTHSCSA to take the TEAS. I'm not sure if it'll be the same for the next semesters,...

  20. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah. I know that. It's just for a single mom like me that only works part-time... it's hard to save money to pay for that especially when I have bills to pay. And I still haven't gotten the fin aid...

  21. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    So did everyone else get the info about the computers? I'm kind of lost as to how I'm going to come up with the money to pay for any of the computers we have to select from. (I mean come on... the...

  22. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    I was also concerned when I read the info about the transcripts because I'm also at Alamo Colleges. I'm sure they'll work with us, but I hope Alamo Colleges will work with us too. I haven't exactly...

  23. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    I got in as well! Congrats to everyone! We did it!! & Just when I was about to lose my mind... Haha. I got the e-mail while I was at work around 5:30-ish (my last name starts with "W") when I...

  24. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    I've been checking to see if anyone's heard anything. But apparently no one has so LOL. I'm so tired of this waiting and not knowing. It's throwing my whole semester off for school.

  25. UTHSCSA Spring 2012

    girlwarrior replied to youresocurious's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'm pretty sure they know by now that Alamo Colleges takes a long while to get transcripts out. So, I would hope they'll be understanding from that standpoint. If all else fails, if it takes a long...
