Scoring for TX schools

[taylorvonritter]

I was wondering if anyone knew the way TAMUC and SFA score their applicants?

Hi, I'm a student looking to start my pre-nursing reqs this upcoming fall and I've been looking into several universities in TX to do my prereqs. I'm transferring as a junior out of a fashion major, and I have all my prereqs except sciences (chem, a&p, micro). I've applied to 5 schools so far, TWU, UTA, UTT, SFA, TAMUC, and I found that at least TWU & UTA require 30+ hours at their university to get points for admission scoring (which is pretty much the only way to guarantee acceptance), and I definitely don't have enough pre-reqs left to get that many hours for those schools, nor the money and time to retake classes I've already completed and gotten A's in. UTT only gives points for pathology, so that is my top contender right now for schools, but I was wondering if anyone knew the way TAMUC and SFA score their applicants so I can see if they're the right schools for me. Any additional schools you think I should consider would be a great help!

I would consider UTHSC Houston and UTMB Galveston since they're strictly med/grad and nursing school programs. It doesn't matter where you do take non-nursing courses. Granted, weight is favorable towards 4 year University but they both accept a good amount of applicants from 2 year junior or community colleges.

I would also recommend looking into Texas Tech HSC, with campuses in Abilene, Lubbock, and Odessa. They require very similar pre-reqs to TWU, the only thing that's different is that TWU requires a women's studies course.
