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.

I haven't received anything from the school at all. Ill let yall know as soon as they email me back. I did read on another forum that LVN's compete against LVN's so they won't be thrown in with the BSN students. So that gives me some hope. I also have a pharmacy tech license that is still active but there wasn't anywhere for me to add it on my NursingCas so I wonder if i should send it to them? Regardless I'm so discouraged I started an application to Tarleton in Waco since their deadline is July 1st and they have the same pre req's for the BSN and LVN-BSN program.

!!!! I just called and I was told that they haven't sent anything out yet but they've just about made their decisions so they said to keep an eye out cause they will be sending emails out "very soon"

Well hopefully we will hear today! Maybe there was a LOT more applications this year. Who knows. Thanks for the intel ?

The suspense is killing me ???

Well, I suppose tomorrow...

Does anyone know if you give a deposit when you're accepted into the program?

I believe you do!

Have y’all heard from the program?!

No. I just checked ? Sorry for the false hope lol

Oh no I'm sorry for getting y'all excited lol I was just wondering because I have to give a $200 deposit for another school tomorrow and it would suck to have to pay if I end up accepted at Sam.

@asalinasCan I ask what school? If I don't get into Sam, I'm debating on just getting an ADN because I want to get my masters anyway and I'm hoping it will save me money.

Of course, University of St. Thomas! They actually extended their application until July 1st instead of June 1st so I'm guessing they still have quite a bit spots to fill. The only thing that personally drives me away from the school is that the program is 3 years long as a transfer ? & it is private so it can be quite pricey but they have I believe 3 different scholarships that they give the highest being $13,000. I was going to apply to an ADN program but I didn't get a chance too.. let's hope you get in if not apply anywhere that you can including an ADN program it won't hurt and you can always go into a bridge program and then your masters. Either way you'll get there ?
