They do not use it anymore, per the pre nursing advisor I spoke to.  Since they moved to a more holistic application approach, the excel point sheet doesn’t apply to the process anymore.  They said they do have another system now for deciding, but can’t disclose it.  

I realize reading more in this thread that has already been brought up, I'm sorry! But thank you for your info. Do you happen to know if they go off the nursing cas GPA calculations? 

Do y’all know when we should get a decision? 

I got my eligibility email this morning! It says they hope to send out admission decisions in October! ?

Me too. I just got mine few minutes ago. Did you do the background check already?

I did my background check back in August. I was told by an advisor that if I could it would be best to get it done before submitting the application. I know it said something like it can take up to 3 weeks or something to get it back but I got mine back within a few days!

They walk you through how to do it on the NursingCAS application under the Program Materials section and under the Home tab. There’s a different code for each campus and the background check is through Castle Branch

That I’m not sure. That would be a good question for an advisor. The background check is already $40-$50 for one so I doubt they’d have you pay for two but I don’t know. I’d call them & find out! 

I tried and nobody is picking up LOL. I'm just glad there isn't a deadline for the background checks.

I would think if you’re mainly applying for the Dallas campus and just selected that you’re also interested in the Houston campus, that you would submit a background check for the Dallas campus but that’s just my thought process on it LOL I’m only applying for Houston so I did not come across this issue. Maybe email them!
