I am currently in the process of applying to TWU's weekend program for Fall 2012 and I just wanted to start a new thread for any prospective TWU nursing students as well as current students!
For those of you who don't know, TWU has a weekend program for students with a previous bachelor degree in another field. From what I understand, if you are not selected for the weekend program, they will automatically consider you for the traditional program as well.
The minimum GPA requirement is 3.0 with the TEAS V entrance exam also required in order to apply..and of course you also have to complete the required pre-requisite courses.
If anyone else has any more detailed information regarding this program, your input is certainly welcome. I hope this thread is helpful for anyone considering nursing school at TWU. :)
Thanks Mcgil, I'm still nervous. Be mindful of your time on the math portion, that is what got me And yes I am taking Patho this semester Tuesday and Thursday's, you?
Hello Nela 87, since you experienced a lot from last spring 2012, can I ask like my TEAS is 74 and My GPA is 3.87, I have 2 A's out of the 4 first attempts. Is that competitive enough to get into? I wish I could do better on the teas exam :-( are they gonna send acceptance letter at one time or many times during a week? If they reject me, when will they send rejection letter? Thanks
Nela87-I thought TWU didn't let you retake the TEAS? I was gonna apply but I don't have nutrition & stats yet. Thipose are 1 of 4 classes I needed to take to get my 60 hrs. I'm taking them this Spring, as well as Govt, Hist, and Organic Chem. I've got a full work load. If I don't get accepted into UTMB or UTHSC, then when I reapply for Spring I will be adding TWU to my applications. I got a 76%, and thatsmy first time around score. My GPA is 3.6 for everything. My science GPA though is 4.0. Good Luck to y'all!!
I too am applying for the Fall 2012 traditional program at the Dallas campus. My stats are 3.86 gpa, 3 first attempts with an A, and my Teas score was 78.7. I am soooo worried about my Teas score but here we go. Ahhh the waiting is killing me already! Oh an I am also taking patho this semester at the Dallas campus. Good Luck everyone!
i tried the nutrition didnt pass need to retake, took the TEAS for UTMB but need to improve my score, now i see you have to take it PSI which is 110.00 that sucks.
can I priority mail all my paperwork for them or transcript has to come straight form the school
i took TEAS last year messed up got a 58 overall, taking it on the 31st. my GPA is 3.6 last semester. did the applytexas an hour ago, should i send transcript automatically from school or priority mail in am
Hello everyone. I'm also applying to the TWU Fall 2012 weekend program, although, I have yet to schedule a date to take my TEAS. Good luck to all!:)
*Update-Took the Teas V Saturday, so not prepared for the science section. I definitely should have studied more. Overall score, 77%, I'm hopeful (fingers crossed). I'm waiting for the CON approval of courses from my first degree before I submit CON app.
Helllo everyone! I emailed ****** ****** yesterday and she said average score for last semester was 81%. Mine is 74% :-(. Twu doesn't do the point system so I really don't know I am standing on the list :-(
Oh an I am also taking patho this semester at the Dallas campus. Good Luck everyone!
