Hi Hannah!

Congrats on getting your NursingCAS started. I’m also applying for Fall. I’m a little confused on the immunization. I went to see the advisor and she said if you don’t have a history of Hepatitis B (3 dose series), you can go ahead and do the Heplisav-B (2 dose series). So I’m just wondering if you know anything about it! And I never got my Hep B tested before. Thank you!

I spoke with the advisor about two weeks ago and she told me to scan the certification/license.

Does having a CNA boost your chances of getting in? my gpa is super low rn...but my TEAs scores are pretty good

I think as long as you have it plus 6 months experience.

I don’t know anything about the shorter HepB shots but make sure your titers for it are QUANTITATIVE. They won’t except anything else.

Thank you! I am having a lot of trouble with my immunizations right now. To make a long story short, I have to get my Hep B series over again due to my titer coming back non-reactive. I completed the first of my series, and will be going back shortly for the second and will receive a titer after my second dose and use that to apply with.

Hi everyone! I'm also applying to SHSU. I'm coming with transfer credits.

Here are my stats:

Overall TEAS : 84%

  • Math: 90.6%
  • Science: 87.2%
  • Reading: 78.7%
  • English: 75%

Overall GPA: 3.52

I started the NursingCAS application a while back. I had to get immunized for Hep B again, but I'm about to go back for my 2nd titer.

Good luck to everyone!

On the list of immunizations, it says we need Hepatitis C vaccine...? or something to do with hepatitis C but im really confused because there is no vaccine. Unless they meant if I have Hepatitis C I have to bring in lab report documentation?
