I received a call on the 24th! they did not mention the location or unit though

Hey there Chancec13!! HBU is great! You really become a family with the nursing staff and with the other nursing students! The teachers are very passionate in what they teach and they all want us to pass! We're not considered numbers at HBU, the teachers know us by name and they offer us the same respect we offer them. I highly recommend HBU, they have a great nursing program! I hope you get in! :)

SOAR is a welcoming orientation for most students to HBU, I think they show you how to sign up for classes and stuff. I'm not sure if I'm going to go, since we have our own nursing meeting on Dec. 8

Will any of you ladies be going to SOAR on November 21st? I'm hoping they can help me sign up for the classes I need for nursing school, because I also don't have a login ID yet

I'm in too!! Woooo!! :))

I called today at 11 and they told me they are still in the process of deciding who will get in. She said we should find out hopefully by the end of this week or early next week.

I hope we make it in!!

I've been chosen as an alternate! I just accepted the offer! I still have a chance!! :)

Hey Alex! Good luck! I hope we all get into the program! It's my first time applying too! This waiting game is too much!!

Thanks :) The only hopes I have is because of my Hesi score! Lol. I made a 96 on the a&p section and one of the nursing advisors told me they go off of a point system and they look at the science grades the most, (Since classes like humanities aren't that important in the nursing field). I only applied to HBU, because I knew my chances would be slim at UT health and TWU. But If things don't work out at HBU, I'll try there again and I'll try other nursing schools too for the fall. Yeah Houston nursing schools are way better than most, and it'd be easier if you live in the area anyway. What gpa did you have when you applied for the fall, if you don't mind me asking?

I have a 3.4 overall gpa, 3.5 science gpa and I also made a 90 on my Hesi. I feel like the odds aren't in my favor, but I'm hoping for the best! I heard that it's less competetive in the spring semester than it is in the fall.

Good luck to you! I hope we all get in! Do you know what gpa they usually take in? Or what's the lowest Gpa you've heard of a transfer student to get in?

Congrats on your acceptance to HCC Coleman! Yeah I get what you mean, I rather go to HBU too if I was in your shoes. I don't go to HBU either. I only applied to HBU, because 1: it's the only school I had time to apply to and 2: because they have such a great nursing program! I'm putting all of my faith into HBU, I hope I get an email soon!

do you currently attend HBU? i am so anxious, i've been checking my emails and mailbox everyday, hoping to receive a letter already! did you apply to any other nursing schools?

Thank you! Good luck to you too! This waiting process has me so worried!! I hope we both get in! I've heard great things about HBU
