UT Houston (Fall 2014 applicants)

Published

Hello Future Nurses,

Wanted to know if anyone was preparing to take the Hesi a2, and or applying to UT Houston before the Jan. 15, 2014 deadline for Fall 2014???? I would like to form a study forum!!

Me too! Still waiting. I have a 92% overall on HESI with a 900 in CT. I'm sure all my GPAs are above 3.0. Not sure how much over. I'm so nervous. I can't sleep or eat much right now cause my stomach is in knots!! Praying without ceasing!!

This is my first post ever. I'm driving myself crazy as well. I did call Registrar's office today because I have not received an evaluation letter and there is a yellow triangle next to my name. They said I was fine and the triangle is because I am still taking classes and need to submit my transcript when Im done. She asked me if I had gotten an email. Sadly, I said no. She said that emails were still being sent out (Yay, thought I would share for those still waiting). She said when I get the email, that I have to respond within 48 hours if I accept or not. She did not say what it was in regards to or when I would receive the email. Hoping thats good new. I'm trying to stay hopeful. Does anyone know what she meant about 48 hours?

I believe UTH accepts 120 students per semester (at least that is what I remembered from the last time that I went to an info secession). I definitely don't see you having any problems getting accepted. Your HESI score is one of the highest that I have seen on here so far. I believe there is someone on here that has been accepted with an 84 HESI score. I have heard that UTH is VERY random with how they accept students and from reading past posts.

I remember someone saying that your myUTH acct should be updated within 48 hours. After it's been updated, you can then accept or decline your admission.

You are right. Now that I am thinking about what she said, she did say I needed to wait 48 hours before could accept or not, but I did not know what she meant. I think I just figured in my mind that she meant I needed to respond in 48 hours. Thanks!

I thought overall GPA counted because the website states:

Generally, applicants to the upper division Bachelor of Science in Nursing program are considered on the basis of the following criteria:

Completed application

Grade point average in prerequisite course work

Science grade point average

Overall academic achievement

TOEFL for applicants whose native language is not English and have not graduated from an English-speaking university

The HESI A2 Entrance Exam

So maybe the overall GPA is a part of the overall academic achievement?
