TWU Fall 2011 Hopefuls

[AlliTodd223]

Hello! Just wanted to start a thread for those applying to the college of Nursing at Texas Woman's University. Who already goes there? What do you have left to take? Are you nervous... etc!

My name is Alli, I will start at TWU, not the nursing program, this summer. Moving to Denton with my husband. I can't wait!

Hi Pamq, the bump is from taking 16units at TWU for the prerequisite courses. I wish I had taken my course at TWU instead of at a community college....stinks.

Congrats future J1's! Make sure you take advantage of the opportunity to get Patho out of the way this summer. It will make a significant difference in your stress level if you don't have to manage that on top of Pharm (which takes A LOT of studying) and Concepts (which takes A LOT of time). Best of luck to you all!

What do y'all mean by GPA with the bump? Does the "bump" mean with your re-take classes?

If you took 16 or more hours of your prereqs at TWU, they gave your GPA an .4 bump- so you could end up having up to a 4.4 GPA.

I got the bump, and I'm prettyyyyyy sure that you have to have at least 30 or more hours at TWU to get it. But I could be wrong haha

I was told 32 hours for the bump

I would LOVE to get patho out of the way this summer but I'm having a really hard time finding it on the online TWU registry. Is the class just full? Or is it possible to take patho at another school?

Help!

Make sure you're searching under Biology classes, not Nursing. It's there, at least for the Dallas campus. I would also recommend doing face-to-face vs online if you can make it. Online is MUCH harder, and you absolutely have to read that gigantic, tiny print, impossible-to-understand book. Face-to-face classes are completely off her notes. (Again, this is for Dallas campus.)

Its 32credits for undergrad and 16 credits for post bac to get the bump. both of u are right.

I can't explain how excited I am I get in. I'm honestly in shock and feel it must have been God's Will, because I did TERRIBLE on the TEAS. I was told by an advisor that they score the test by sections, and I did descent on everythingbut the Science and totally bombed it. My total score was only a 69, which I know is awful, but my GPA was a 3.8, and made A's on all my first attempt science courses but anatomy 2. I still know it is a true blessing I got in and The Lord had my back. To those of you who didn't get in yet, don't lose hope, keep your head up, and keep having faith and trying. Good luck to everyone and I'll see you guys at orientation!
