TWU Spring 2009

Hopefully u will get in. Is the waiting killing u too?? I would have to take the pharm n patho for UTA

Has anyone heard anything new on emails as far as TWU Spring applicants?

]I haven't heard anything, and I think it will be at least another month until we do. Luckily I'm pretty busy so not too much time to dwell on it, but still...I'm getting anxious to just know so I can make plans one way or the other.

Did anyone apply to both locations of TWU, or did most of you just pick the one closest to where you live? I only applied to Houston, and I've seen a few others on here who have, but it looks like a lot of you are in the DFW area. Did any of yall mark on your applications that you'd go to either school? I kinda wonder if that gives you a little boost, showing that you're willing to move.

Hello Pookster84:typing

I only applied TWU-Dallas. I am sure there are some that will go to either, but you are the first person that I have talked to that has applied to Houston. I would suspect that there are more for Dallas than Houston due to the fact that some applicants do not desire to move.

I think we will hear something by the end of October at least I pray.

Take care,

I haven't heard anything from TWU either. I stated I wanted my initial choice to be Dallas but my boyfriend soon to be fiancee lives in Houston so I marked the option of going to Hoston as well. I wouldn't mind going to either location as long as I get in!!!! Three more weeks till Nov and then we can get out of our misery :)

Soon the waiting will be over, for sure:yeah:

Pookster84,

Do you know if the stats to get in at Houston has different stats than the dallas school??

As far as the stats for Dallas and Houston from what I understand

the stats are usually a little lower as far as GPA, but again it depends on the applicants in the pool.

I received the following information from the grapevine; which is not always reliable at all.

I would bet that the GPA portion is lower in Houston because there are fewer TWU students with their 0.4 extra points to contend with. While I saw people mention earlier a 3.7 has been the approx cutoff, I know someone who is in the Houston program who had somewhere close to a 3.5.

I wonder since I said I would go to either one if I get rejected in Dallas would I have a better chance of getting into Houston?? I hope that is the case since my gpa isn't super high

Hello PrincessWannaBe

You may have a higher chance of being accepted since you are willing to

go to the Houston campus.

I am still patiently awaiting any correspondence. Three more weeks and hopefully everyone will know.

Oh, I'm saying some prayers for those of you trying to get in for Spring!

By the way, does anyone know which vaccinations we'll (hopefully!) have to have (and prove up) for the TWU program? I'm about to begin the task of getting all my vaccinations up-to-date, and that information would be quite helpful!
