TWU Spring 2018

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hi!

I haven't seen a thread made for the TWU Spring 2018 application process, so decided to start one! I'm the type to worry, and I know I'm not alone, so what better place to vent than here? For anyone wondering, the application date for Spring 2018 is August 15th, 2017!

My GPA comes out to a 3.720 with TWU preference. I haven't taken my TEAs yet, but plan to soon.

How about y'all?

Thank you for posting this comparison of the two schools admission process! There have been so many times when I needed answers from Uth and once that conversation was over I felt completely dejected and confused. They were the most belittling staff I've ever encountered. And I'm glad to hear I wasn't the only person thinking this. I hope you do well in nursing school!

Congratulations to all who got accepted! Joining this forum has given me a greater understanding of the stats truly needed to be competitive. All i can say is i will be trying again with a better GPA and higher TEAS since I have no previous Bachelor degree or TWU Preference. Good luck to all of you!

I know I can/should improve my TEAS score to improve my chances but if 50 points isn't good enough to get in and they take preference over those who went to TWU & that also have good grades first, then I want to know so I don't waste my time you know? Do you happen to know how to get the TWU bump? Do you have to have received a degree from there?

Hey Melody. Maybe I can help you out. I really do not know how many points I had... But, I did not go to TWU, and I did not have a previous bachelors. My gpa was 3.875 and my TEAS score was 88. So, I don't think I received a bump of any kind (not sure how bumps work)? I hope I could help.

@Spring2018, those are amazing stats! Did you get accepted? And if you did, what campus? I'm just trying to get an idea of what to aim for. I applied with a 3.52 and an 88 on my TEAS. My points added up to 40

@galarza0402 - Yes I did, to the Houston campus. Maybe retaking a few classes to bump up the your gpa might help? I really hope you get in next time : )

The best thing to do is play with your figures on the spreadsheet. Replace your GPA with a hypothetical ones considering what classes you would retake. Also adjust the TEAS score some. This will give you a good look at what gives you the best opportunity to increase your chances. I know increasing your TEAS can make a huge impact, or at least it did when I utilized the spreadsheet.

@spring2018 that's great! Congratulations! I am currently retaking A&P 1 and will be retaking Micro in the spring! And also, taking my TEAS again because I did get a 79.2 on the grammar. That was my lowest

@ Brandon_Hare that's what I did today! If I retake the TEAS and make atleast a 90 on each section then I would have 50 points. I think my chances of getting in next Fall would increase drastically compared to the original 40points I applied with this time around

What is the difference of TWU Preference and TWU Bump?
