I am preparing myself to apply for Summer 2018 pacesetter BSN program. We can use this forum for Summer 2018 applicants. I am in the process of taking Hesi exam. I have completed all my prerequisite courses needed for the program.
Little bit about me:
BS in Microbiology in 2005 -GPA (3.05)
MPH degree in Epidemiology in 2012-GPA (3.85)
Associate degree of Science in 2017-GPA (4.0)
Hesi test-will be taking it in August
Working full time with City Health department as an epidemiologist specialist since last five years. I am also a mom of two boys.
Got accepted to MUSC college of nursing program but declined it. Also got accepted to Johns Hopkins Entry into Masters of nursing program for Fall 2017 but had to deffer it to Fall 2018 due to financial circumstances.
Trying to apply for the in-state school due to affordable tuition as well as easy commute.
I really hope i can get into UT Health Science center pacesetter program as it's my first option as it's closest to me as well as it's affordable and one of the best programs in Texas.

Call the number where it says 'contact help desk'. You are probably locked out which happened to me and they just need you to confirm your email. He said it randomly happens
I wish I could have attended he information session, thanks for the info to those that made it! Did they say anything about what exactly they look for when looking through applications? I did hear that it's a bit easier to be accepted for Summer since not as many people apply but 600-800 is still so much. Oh the waiting is horrible! Good luck to everyone:) Really hoping to be accepted and meet everyone!
Hey y'all so I applied for both summer and fall admission and just now realized that applying to the fall term probably wasn't a good idea. Did anybody else also apply for two different terms?
They did mention that the last cohort's average gpa was around 3.6-3.8 but she also said that they had people with lesser than 3.5 too last time. She said that even if your gpa is less than 3.5 you should not think that you wouldn't make it as it all depends on the admission committee.
I've read through all the past forums and there's no consistency in how they chose students. Some with 3.9 are denied while others with 3.5 are accepted! But thank you so much for the information. I heard Fall and Spring were more competitive. So I'm being hopeful for Summer.
I will apply for Fall 2018 as well! Good luck to everyone:)
