TCU Nursing Fall 2016

Published

Hello all!

Ive just applied to the nursing program at TCU for the fall of 2016. I was just wondering if anyone else is looking for a forum to communicate with others that are in the same boat. A little information about myself: I am a current student at TCU that just transferred from Weatherford College. I have 3 more prerequisites to complete before nursing school starts. My overall GPA Is a 3.3 and I have received an A in both A&P courses, B in Microbiology, B in nutrition, and an A in Intro to psychology. I am scheduled to take the HESI A2 test on January 13th, in which I will have to update my NursingCAS afterwards. Also, I am a 4 year Army veteran and a current member of the reserve component as a Medic. I hold a EMT license as well.

Hopefully my chances are good lol. I'm looking to hear from many of you!

Interesting! 19D?

You should not have a problem getting accepted, Natasha! I talked to my nursing counselor the other day and she said that they are going to start looking at applications mid February. Accelerated will be evaluated first and should know something around mid March. Traditional applicants will find out late March to early April.... All letters will be sent no later than April 1st.

Thanks Dustin! I hope I get in :-). My only worry is that my overall GPA from my bachelors degree is not very high. I'm hoping that my nursing and TCU core pre-requisites will overshadow that though!

Yes hopefully! I am not ready for this waiting period though!
