Congratulations! I don't do facebook. How else can I be kept in the loop?

Yipeeeee, I got accepted for Spring 2013. Still can't believe it. I am so excited.

I got accepted into the Dallas program and I am still in shock. However, one of my very dear friends did not get accepted. Needless to say I am happy and sad at the same time. Here are my stats: GPA = 3.84 Post-baccalaurette 3/4 first attempt A's (A&P 1, A&P 2, and Microbiology) 68 TEAS No Bump This is crazzzzzzy!!!!! I am so excited and nervous. Looking forward to meeting you all. Good luck! For those who did not get accepted, I am deeply saddened and don't give up. Keep chasing your dreams to make them a reality.

Hi CarolesChoice, I am currently taking Pathophysiology at TWU-Denton. Still waiting to hear if I have been accepted. My understanding is that applicants should hear something by Nov. 1st. Until then, I am praying and crossing my fingers/toes. I am hopeful but have a backup plan if I do not get accepted. Dying to know already -- not sure why it takes so long. Hope things are going well for you.

OMG, I really hope that I do get accepted. Congratulations on your acceptance Yes it is torture to have to wait but it is out of my hands now. I have been focusing on the classes that I am currently taking, kinda keeps my mind off of it. Yes let's hope that we will see each other at TWU. Please post again so I can keep up with you. Good Luck !!

That definitely sounds promising. I know that nursing school is crazy but deep in my heart I know that I was meant to do this and do well. Good luck on your future endeavors.

Hi all, Thanks for your responses. I am slowly coming out of my funk and going to hang on to hope. I have come too far to give up and besides I want this sooooo bad! At my school (TWU), the absolute minimum score to be considered is 64 but since it is so competitive they tell potentials to shoot for an 80 to guarantee acceptance. The school only looks at your adjusted individual score. I was told by my nursing advisor that they put all your information in the database and it spits out a rank. Also, my advisor told me that last semester someone who had the same parameters as myself got accepted, even with a 67. So there is hope. Now I have to wait until November or December to find out if I will be accepted.

Thanks for the pep talk. I am not going to give up on my dream of becoming a nurse. A few bumps in the road will better prepare me for the journey. Good luck to you!

Hi All, I took the Teas V and passed. I ran out of time on two sections which drastically brought down my score to a 66.7%. I lost track of time on the very first section (Reading) and never regained my momentum or composure. I am so disappointed and discouraged. I am so nervous about whether I will get accepted. I have a 3.84 GPA and 3 out of 4 first attempt A's (A&P I/II, Microbiology). I was told by my nursing advisor that I needed to get an overall score of "80" to be guaranteed acceptance. Has anyone been accepted to TWU's nursing school with a test score of 66.7%? Unfortunately, I can only take the Teas once per application period. I will be devastated to not get accepted because I have worked so hard to get good grades and prepare for the Teas. Also, I have some friends that I took all my pre-req's with and we developed a study group. We were all hoping that we would go through nursing school together and maintain our study group.
