Hello, my name's Tien and I'm going to apply for TWU Houston Fall 14'. I noticed there's a topic for Dallas but none for Houston so I'm starting this one, hoping it will be a place for us hopeful applicants to come and share information.
BTW, my stats are: GPA 3.892, TEAS V 85.3%, 2/4 first attempt, and previous BA in Business. I'm scared b/c of my "1st attempt" since I see most that got in have 3 or 4/4 ...
Yes, you have the summers off. Which is good and bad. You can try to get externships (think paid internship) over the summer, work elsewhere or volunteer. You can also knock out electives (1 is required) and the women's course (if you aren't already core complete) in the summer as well.
Also, once you are in the program, you may wonder just how they could possibly cram everything into a summer session without ruling your life anymore than the program already does.
For drug screening do we have to go to Houston to do that? I live I'm ATX and would rather do it here. I already went to link provided in the packet and payed around $45 but it didn't include locations.
The drug screen is done on campus one of the orientation days. I think it is the first day (May), but I am not 100% sure.

Hey root.user, do you know of any students that took patho over the summer at TWU Houston??
I am pretty sure there were Fall start students that did. I was a spring start, so it wasn't an option for me.
The class is technically a BIOL course, so you may be able to look at the registration in Dallas/Denton to see what is being offered outside of Houston as well. As far as the Houston class, that one probably requires you to be cleared for registration. If that is the case, you should be able to get that done during the May orientation.
I would call or email to make sure. There isn't anything that is due right now, but there is a form due April 25th. You can go online and find the immunization form for TWU and start on that, it is the exact one in the packet. Just remember to put May 2nd on your calendar because it is mandatory. 8:00am-1:00pm
Let me know if you guys have any more questions until you get your stuff!
It is the Drug Screening and Criminal Background Screening Form. Just a signature is needed. I was able to email it even though the letter said to mail it. Just FYI. If you google "Immunization Record for Nursing Majors at Texas Woman's University" you will find the form required on their site (for immunizations).
