TWU Spring 2022 APPLICANTS

Published

I haven't seen a forum for the Spring 2022 cycle yet, so I decided to make one! What are yall's current stats? Did you see on nursingcas TWU added a special question section??

To try and be as thorough and detailed as possible there is the TWU application process and the NursingCAS application process.

First you send the application through ApplyTexas, and submit your transcripts to TWU. TWU responds with giving you access to the applicant portal for their university, and should accept you pretty promptly once they verify your transcripts. 

Once you are accepted into TWU there is the NursingCAS application. The transcripts you send to nursingCAS are utilized broadly for all the programs you apply to. You only have to submit one transcript from your colleges to NursingCAS and it will apply to each application. So, for example, if you are applying to TCU, UTA, and TWU (through nursingcas) you only need to send the transcript once to NursingCAS.

Does that make sense?

On nursingcas it will only tell you the status of transcripts that were sent to nursing cas. It can't tell you if it arrived at TWU. If you received acceptance to twu as a general student and sent transcripts to twu then you are probably fine.

Yes, official transcripts only. But I am concerned. It looks like you're a transfer student, did you also submit your ApplyTexas application for TWU and get accepted as nursing-entry? You have to have completed that step and been accepted into the college in order to submit the nursingCAS application.

(also sorry if we're flooding this but I don't have PM privileges yet :|)

Yess I did apply at applyTexas and got accepted.

Does anyone know how long the background check is supposed to take and if we're supposed to receive any confirmation that everything was cleared? I had my name legally changed years ago (not through marriage) but the service that they use did not ask for any former names outside of maiden name so I'm wondering if that's going to cause me delay/issues.

Hi. The Castlebranch website states "It takes on average 3-5 business days to complete a background check. Some state or county searches take a bit longer to conduct based upon the court systems in that jurisdiction." Mine took 5 business days. You can log in to CB and under the to-do list, click "view results" and you'll be able to view a PDF summary of your results. I'm not sure if we're supposed to get any confirmation if it was cleared. I think you will be fine if you already submitted it since that's all they said to do by today.

Oh! There wasn't anything listed before but now it does show my results my criminal records check is still "in progress" but everything else seems to have come back fine I think.

Hello, I have a question regarding verification! When they said that application requirements have to be verified prior to the deadline, did they mean the application verification that NursingCAS does before they send it to the selected programs? Or is just the transcript verification? I submitted my application Saturday night, but my application was not verified until Monday morning. My transcript was received around Thursday night. Thank you so much!

Last Spring application cycle they didn't get acceptance emails until around November 9th I think and it looks like they're even more understaffed this year. I think early November sounds about right.
