SHSU Fall 2019 (Sam Houston State University)

Published

Hey guys! I didn't see a thread for applicants for Sam Houston State University BSN Fall 2019, so I decided to make one. I am in the process of making my NursingCAS application.

My Stats:

Teas Overall: 86%

  • Math: 93.8%
  • Reading: 85.1%

Overall GPA: 3.5

Pre-Nursing GPA (according to GPA calculator on shsu website) : 3.5

I do have credits from SHSU, and I also took MATH 1370. I am not a licensed CNA, although I did take the course.

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?

I think it’s the HepC titer QUANTITATIVE results. I will look when I get off but I don’t think there is a HepC vaccine, just a titer saying if you have it or not.

You just have to get a quantitative titer proving you don't have Hep C. I was confused about that too!

Hey, I went to Calvary Medical Clinic at the Kingwood location. A Dr can order it for you and it takes about 3 days for the results. I don’t have a pcp so I went there.

Does anyone know how long it takes to get accepted to Sam Houston? I electronically sent the transcript two weeks ago and checked the status today and it still says “not received”.?

For general admission? I would give the school a call and ask about your applicant status.

@spot942 Hey! I'm having to apply to SHSU first as well! The last I saw was my transcripts were all received, but now I can't log in to check the status of my application. Do y'all know if they're doing maintenance before I call up the admissions lady?

Hey, I just checked and it’s working. They got my transcripts now. I also got an email earlier about activating my SHSU account with a username.

Sweet! I got mine up and running! (S/O to Dylan the IT guy!) Now we just sit and wait! Does anyone know how admissions have worked in the past?

Do we need to have all of the immunizations done before we can apply? Or just before school starts?

You must send in all required immunizations with your application.

Hey I have a question. I am thinking about applying to SHSU for the fall and was wondering if anyone knew how long the nursing program is if I have all prerequisites completed? Thank you!!
