Hey there. I plan on applying to TWUs N&W program in February for the Fall 2020 start. I just took my TEAS test today, my score was:
Overall: 85.3%
Reading: 87.2%
Math: 96.9%
Science: 74.5%
English: 83.3%
I'm not happy with my science score, but I also haven't taken A&P II or Chemistry yet, just A&P I. I plan on retaking the TEAS in December.
I have a 3.85 science core GPA (one B in A&P I) and 3.81 prereq GPA. that gives me a 45.56 admission score, which probably won't cut it. I can't retake A&P I in time, so my only hope is a higher TEAS score.
Who else is applying for Fall 2020? Are you applying to Houston, Dallas Traditional, or Dallas N&W?

Do you have the previous bachelors bump or TWU preference? Your stats are similar to mine but i had the previous bachelors bump so my score was 50.

So it’s like you’re looked at more favorably if you’ve had a change of heart as far as careers and education. So strange. I wish they counted medical field experience. I’ve worked in healthcare for over 15 years.
Have any W last names gotten their email?

It is not necessarily favorable that you've had a "change of heart", but from what I was told previous bachelor's students are more favorable because they've been through college before and are typically more focused. That doesn't mean if you don't have a bachelor's that you aren't focused by any means. I know for myself and several other I've met in the program we have all expressed that the level of responsibility expected in this program is not something we personally could have handled our first times in college as we weren't as focused and determined.

Yes, university park refers to the UH main campus
