Was waiting for someone else to make this thread, but I'm too anxious!
I am applying for the Summer 2019 application cycle at UT Health Science in Houston.
Stats:
HESI Overall: 92.4
Nursing Pre-req GPA: 3.88
Science Pre-req GPA: 4.0
Cumulative GPA: 3.41
My science Pre-req is excluding Chemistry. I'll be taking that in the Spring along with a few last minute pre-reqs. I have 2 F's in random classes on my transcript from a few year ago when I lost my mode of transportation. Unfortunately that's bringing my cumulative GPA down. Still feel like I have a shot though, so I am applying!
I'll also be applying for UTMB Fall 2019, Lone Star Fall 2019, and reapplying to UT Health Fall 2019 (if need be).
Critical Thinking was 950, but I don't think they got that score since I took that separately for another school
Nursing GPA: 4.0
Science GPA: 4.0
Overall GPA: 3.72 (that's like over 2 degrees' worth of stuff from a school that calculates differently. Depending on who calculates, it varies btwn 3.71 and 3.75)
For more comparison, I'm in class with two other people that got in. One had a HESI in the 90s, and the other scored an 88 on the HESI, so there is a pretty wide range of scores.
It does seem to be all over the place so who really knows what the secret formula is to getting in!
I just applied to Dallas County Community College last week. They were the only school I found that offered it. It is completely online including the lab! Waiting for them to receive my transcripts so I can register on November 21.
I'm also looking to apply. I don't have any of the history/government classes done (not from TX originally so this wasn't a requirement for my previous bachelors degree) although I'm registered for next semester. I believe I have enough credits to still apply though after I complete this class that ends in December. I'll also sit for the Hesi after this class as that is a requirement for Austin CC, where I'm also applying. Overall I have about a 3.3 GPA. Not outstanding, but I wonder if they look into previous healthcare experience at all? Probably not, but that would be nice.
I live in Austin and haven't done the webinar or info session. I'm curious if the 4 semesters are consecutive?

There is a section on the app where you fill out your work history, so they may consider it! And from what I've heard yes the 4 semester are consecutive. I signed up online for the webinar that is coming up on Monday so i can report back any pertinent info!
Thank you for creating this thread I will also be applying for Summer 2019 how was your experience was the HESI, which I plan on taking in December or the beginning of January. Also is there an interview process?
