TWU Nursing Applicants - Fall 2019

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Just about a year early here, but I wanted to create a thread for Fall 2019 applicants. This is my first time joining a nursing forum; so, let's give it a shot.

I just spoke with an advisor. He told me that they are still waiting for NursingCas to verify my transcript. As soon as that is done, he will recheck everything and then send me an email for eligibility. I guess just call if you guys are unsure, most likely they are just about to send the email, or waiting on NursingCas.

For transcripts from other schools to TWU, if I sent them when transferring in to the Fall semester I didn't need to submit them again for the nursing application? I only sent transcripts to NursingCAS last month because I thought TWU would have them from when I applied to the school.

if TWU already had all updated transcripts on file you don't have to resend them when applying to the nursing program

Greetings, future nurses!

What is orange and sounds like a parrot? (answer below)

We haven't posted as much on the forum, but we do peek at it every once in a while to make sure the information that's shared is accurate.

We're getting some phone calls from applicants who are concerned about eligibility emails, so we wanted to pop in with a message of reassurance.

Because applications are being processed by multiple people, we each have a chunk of the alphabet so that we don't stumble over each other as we work. So if you haven't gotten an eligibility email, don't worry. The person processing your letter set may not have gotten to your last name.

Every applicant will get some kind of contact as processing continues, be it an eligibility email or an ineligibility email (due to not meeting requirements, missing TEAS, ineligible GPA, etc.). If you do happen to get an ineligibility email, you have five business days from the date the email was sent to respond and correct any issues.

It's very important to check your email (especially spam/junk folder) each day. All notifications will be sent to the email address you used to sign up for NursingCAS.

We know how hard it is to wait and we're just as excited as you are, which is why we're processing applications as rapidly and as accurately as we can.

Take care, future nurses! Remember to take deep breaths and remain calm.

Peace out!

Answer to riddle: A carrot. :D :D

Hi everyone.... I feel so sad. I did not pass my teas and could not apply for this session. Please I need help on how you all studied for the teas. Any idea will be appreciated. Thanks

Hi! Dont feel so down. Many of us took the exam multiple times. Also, there are a lot of facebook groups over the ATI TEAS. Ive been in the "ATI TEAS 6 TEST- Study Group" facebook group for a couple of weeks now. Everyone there shares their scores and study habits as well as links to reviews, youtube videos, and other helpful information. Hope this help and keep trying!

Hey don't get down on yourself! Just know you can study hard and get in for Spring 2020. You've worked so hard to even get to this point so just stay positive and push a little more and you've got this. I most likely won't get in due to my TEAS score, so I get that feeling of disappointment. What I did to study was get a baseline of where I was at by taking practice tests and studying really hard on the things I struggled with. My scores were pretty good, but I didn't study at all for the science section which was my downfall, it's been about 6 months since I took A&P and I thought I could wing it, I couldn't. Good luck to you, keep working, you've got this!

I had to retake mine and that is when I did better! Do not ever give up!

Hi everybody! I just got my eligibility email today and my last name starts with a P.

Does anyone know how TWU calculates the "overall gpa"?

They don’t take overall GPA into consideration, only your science gpa.

Your science GPA is calculated from Chemistry, A&P 1, A&P 2, Microbiology, Developmental Psychology, & Statistics.

If you make an A in a class that is 4 points, B= 3 points, C= 2 points.

You multiply the points from the grade you make by the numbers of credit hours the class has (example: A&P 1 is a 4 credit hour class).

You then add up all of the points after multiplying your grade points by credit hours. Then you divine this total by the total number of credit hours from the 6 classes (which should be 22 hours). This is your science GPA that is taken into account for your admission score!

Example:

A in Chemistry (4 credit hours) =16

B in A&P 1 (4 credit hours) =12

A in A&P 2 (4 credit hours) =16

C in Microbiology (4 credit hours) =12

A in Developmental Psyc (3 credit hours) =12

B in Statistics (3 credit hours) =9

16+12+16+12+12+9 = 77

77/22= 3.5 GPA

Thank you!
