So if we have not received an email by now do we assume that we did not get in?

The ones who received emails already have till the 23rd to decide if they are accepting or not. Keep in mind some people may deny their acceptance to go elsewhere.

The school will then send out more emails based on the people who deny their acceptance.

I don't know if they sent out acceptance emails this morning for all spots or just for some.

Hi all, this is Heather Close, Nursing Admissions Coordinator for TWU. Today has been a hectic day for us here in Denton.

As you've heard, email acceptances for the Dallas and Houston traditional nursing programs did indeed go out this morning. Printed letters are forthcoming in the mail. Our new Google email system has been sneaky and sending some of my emails to spam folders, so check there, too. Those of you who received an offer (congratulations!), please make sure to accept or decline your offer by March 23rd. Once you've sent those forms in, you have nothing left to do until your new campus contacts you with more details. They won't be doing this until after spring break when I give them the list of confirmed students. (They don't know who you are until then.)

If you did NOT receive an email, regrettably, that likely means you won't get in. I'm very sorry. I say likely, because we do add more students as the confirmations/declines come in. You will not know for certain until rejections are sent out. Rejections will not go out until all spots are confirmed, so probably not until after spring break.

We are often surprised by the great students who do not make it in. I know it can be tough and a shock, but please know that the same admission formula is used for all students. It literally comes down to a formula and everyone is ranked based upon that formula score. Try not to compare GPAs and TEAS because the preferences awarded for having half (or more) of your prerequisites from TWU or for having a bachelor's degree do make comparisons hard.

That being said, it looks like the preliminary stats/averages for this semester are the following:

Dallas (360 total applicants)

GPA = 3.77

TEAS Composite Score = 86.03

Dallas Weekend/Evening program (74 applicants)

GPA = 3.69

TEAS = 86.67

Houston (319 applicants)

GPA = 3.56

TEAS = 82.80

Okay, now that I've said all that, I'm going to log out. I will NOT be monitoring this thread. (I had to recreate my Allnurses.com account just to post.) If you have questions or concerns, give us a call - 940-898-2401 - or go to our Facebook page. One of our advisors monitors that page. Please do not call and ask about your number on the "waiting list," though. We aren't going to start telling students where they fell until we have a better idea of how many accept/decline their spots. Check back with us after spring break.

Regards.
