anyone know when we are supposed to hear?

I think someone said they usually give results around the end of May

Hi all!

I also applied to the upcoming Fall 2018 cycle. I have been working towards my pre-reqs and associates degree at HCC for two years. This is my first time applying. I recently had a baby (she will be 6 months by the time August comes around). I really hope I get accepted! I have an awesome support system at home so I hope I can successfully finish nursing school with a baby. I also applied to Lonestar's ADN program. If accepted there (and denied at UTH) I'll be going there. Anyone else here a non-traditional student? It'd be nice to know that other moms (or dads) or other non-traditional students are out there too!

Stats are as follows: (haven't received transcript evaluation)

ScienceGPA: 3.75

Pre-RequisiteGPA: 3.64

HESI: 91.2 (if I'm remembering correctly)

I have three C's from when I was fresh out of high school that are bringing my pre-reqGPA down. Oh well :/

Hello all and good luck to everyone applying. I am finishing up my last 3 pre-reqs (Micro, sociology, and statistics) which I should get As in. I cannot seem to calculate my correct GPA but the only classes I have made Bs in throughout 74 hours (I took a few extra science classes for my associates of science) was Chem 1, Calculus 1, and General Biology 2. I think only Chem 1 is counted towards nursing GPA though. My overall HESI score was an 86.4 which is pretty low I am aware but hopefully my GPA makes up for it. Best of luck to everyone!

Looking at previous forums, I don't think they take into account your whole college career for the overall GPA. There has been people with overall GPAs of 2 point something and they still got in. I think only the GPA for the 60 hours of required prerequisites (what they call nursing prerequisites), and then the science GPA are taken into account. Now I don't know if your science GPA goes into the nursing GPA or not, but I think it does.

Thanks! Hopefully not. If just the prerequisites for the program, then I have a 4.0, and so far I have all As in the science requirements as well. The only Bs I had were for a few of my business degree classes like accounting and finance and maybe a B in my abnormal psychology class I took for my Psych degree.

I applied for the Fall semester as well. My stats really aren't that great for UT Health honestly but you cant get in if you dont even try!lol

Overall GPA 3.7

Science GPA 3.2

Hesi overall 84

I have a 76 as my A&P score.

I've retaken 2 of my sciences and have A's so my gpa will be going up. I'll reapply for the spring if I dont get in this go round

Applying for my first time!

Overall GPA: 3.6

Science GPA: 3.0

HESI: 92

Not the most competitive stats, but I will be graduating from A&M next month with a degree in Allied Health so hoping that will give me a leg up :-) good luck to everyone!

What does it say for yalls application status on the UTHealth website? Mine doesn't say anything.

Hello! Has anyone received the course evaluation letter?

rgo2018 · Apr 9, 2018

Nothing here yet.

Hey Guys!

I'm Mel. This is my first time applying to UT Health as well. I also applied to Lonestar's ADN program too.

Cumulative GPA :3.7

Science GPA: 4.0

HESI overall 87

I receive my mail that's going to be delivered to my mailbox in a nifty email from USPS.

I saw my transcript evaluation in the queue to be delivered to my house.

SO they have sent out transcript evaluations.

I know from previous forums and some people that I know that start in the summer that not everyone even gets a course eval, and the ones that do some didn't get it til after they found out whether or not they were accepted. I hope I get one though!
