UT- Application Process

Hi Everyone! I am a new "potential" nursing student. This post is going to be long, I apologize! I have been a professional recruiter for seven years and recently started taking my pre-reqs to apply to the UT School of Nursing in Houston. The application process states that being "TSI Complete" is required. I have met with an advisor at Lone Star regarding this process and have called UT as well but I seem to get conflicting answers. I was told by Lone Star that I need to take Math 0310 in order to be TSI Complete. I was told by UT that completing my core classes will make me TSI complete. I don't want it to come down to the application deadline and find out that I am not getting in b/c I have not taken Math 0310. I am taking Statistics this fall, but am opting for PSYCH 2317 for my Statistics requirement. None of the pre-reqs require me to have Math 0310, only Math 0308, which I have completed. (I haven't been in school in 10+ years so I had to take a placement test which placed me into remedial Math) Does anyone know if I am going to hit a roadblock with my application process if I haven't taken Math 0310? HELP!!!!!!!:bugeyes::bugeyes::bugeyes::bugeyes: This is making me feel a little crazy!!! I don't want to be turned down b/c of this one thing. Thank you!!!!

Hi there, thanks so much for your post. I would like to take a ceramics class for my visual/performing arts credit, if they accept those types of classes. And I would really prefer to take the psych based stat class, but at this point I am trying to work it out so that I can apply to both UT and TWU. The only difference is if I apply to TWU I have to take 2 extra math courses and then take the stat class on top of it. So I'm debating on whether it is worth going the extra mile to be able to apply to both schools.

I got accepted this coming fall semester for the pre professional program at Lone Star and they have a bio class that in essence is a course that allows you to shadow someone in your medical field for the semester, which I think would be a great asset. I also contacted the children's hospital downtown, but I was told they're starting a new application process for volunteers and they won't have the application period until August.

I'm going to contact my advisor at LoneStar and see what it takes in order to be able to do the shadowing bio class since that would look good on my app. How do you go about getting other opportunities like that or is it pretty hard to get the hospitals to even acknowledge you unless you're already in a medical field? Is it worth going through those cna courses? Thanks for your help!

I have several friends who are nurses and they worked it out so I could shadow them. If you know any nurses, ask them, or ask around to friends if they know any nurses.

Hi rachelerin!

Congrats on getting excepted into UT Houston. I'm getting ready to apply and I am getting nervous. I'm scheduled to take the net in a couple weeks, and wanted to know what you made on the NET? I have a 4.0 Science Gpa and pre req is somewhere around a 3.8, I have heard the reading section of the net is really hard, is that true?

My NET score was somewhere in the mid to upper 80's...I can't remember for sure. The reading section was harder than I thought it would be, but not terrible overall. Good Luck taking the test!!
