TWU Fall 2020 Applicants

Updated:   Published

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?

Campus closes at noon today for good Friday, so hopefully you hear this morning or early next week! Remember there is alot going on for TWU with all of this covid stuff, patience is a virtue! Even so, in the past you should at least have heard an acceptance/denial by now, I've never heard of people not getting anything, everyone's emails usually went out together. Make sure you check all your spam folders, double check you put the right email on your nursingcas application and make sure you got an email from TWU previously stating whether or not you were eligible for admission consideration!

Yeah this is why I was confused too because usually emails go out at once! I did get the eligibility email a while back from them, and I have constantly checked my spam too! But I still haven’t heard anything

When I asked about admissions decisions the person I talked to said by the end of the week is when second wave of admissions emails would be sent out. But I also have no heard anything /:

Same! I got my eligibility email a few months ago and nothing has been in my inbox or spam recently. I spoke to a lady in admissions after I didn't receive anything last week and she told me there would be another wave this week. I knew previously that all decisions had been sent out at once, so I was confused and concerned when I never got anything!

They said they are doing it different this year and they are doing waves. A lot of people said it’s weird but they said it’s also new to them too!! Maybe because of COVOID-19

Yeah I was confused too because people that I’ve talked to that got in said admissions went out all at once.

I'm assuming with the recent world events going on right now it’s easier for the staff to send out in waves.

They did something different last semester from what they've done in the past, they started admitting Dallas applicants to Houston when they didn't have a score high enough for Dallas, not sure if they'll do that again this year or not! That might be why they're mentioning "second wave" acceptance but I'm not sure.

I just got an email from one of the academic advisors and said that “there is likely to be another wave, but they are unsure when it will come. Please continue to check your email for updates.”

SAME LOL. I guess scores were like above 45 this semester cause I swore I had a 45

Specializes in nursing.

I don’t think I had a 45, but I’m doing N/W, so I know scores are not necessarily as high for that program.
