UTA Spring 2020

Updated:   Published

Hi everyone! I figured I'd start a thread for UT Arlington's BSN Spring 2020 applicants!

First off let me start by sharing a few things:

- UTA nursing school acceptance is based off a composite system that consists of your SCIENCE GPA (Anatomy & Phys 1, Anatomy & Phys 2, Microbiology, Chemistry), OVERALL GPA, and Considerations. ?‍?

- also, TEAS scores don't affect your acceptance into the nursing program, unless you don't meet their requirements of course. ? I'm taking mine this Friday so I'll let y'all know how that goes..

also side note: Considerations depend on wether you're applying to the online or on campus. We can only apply to either or..

As of right now, I have 3 considerations:

- military veteran

- 30 hours at UTA

- 3 out of 4 sciences at UTA

I won't know my official science GPA or overall GPA until after this semester ends....

I say think positive! I'm not sure about the online scores but I do know its tough. a 7.9-8 is a great score. I'm not sure what the average normally is.

I think I am going to apply to the On-Campus program instead.

you should. I think applications for fall 2020 close january 15 so id start prepping for that! ?

Mine's either going to be a 6.8 or a 7.1 depending on how well I do in Microbiology ?

Overall: 3.35

Science: 3.0 or 3.25

1 consideration (prev bachelor's)

I'm hesitant to even apply at this point lol

with that score u have a better chance on -campus....There are people with 3-4 considerations and GPA close to to 8 combined ( i hope not too many tho) but I also have 3 considerations and am worried that somebody working for a hospital will get in front of me with a lower score...ughh

I don't know how the partnered hospital works. I work for one of the other campuses of the partnered hospital but not the hospital that the clinicals will take place at. Does that count as working at a partnered hospital or no?

Miss Webb told me that as long as you get a paycheck from one of the listed "partners" hospitals, you are considered partnered...

Is there a list somewhere or do we just need to ask the advisors?

Oh thank you so much! I guess I'm considered partnered.

Hi everyone,

I’m late to this thread and also a bit thick about some of the terminology. What is the point system that you guys are referring to...like 7 being good enough, etc? I just want to check what mine is. Also, what does “partnered” mean? Anyway, I applied for spring 2020. I was accepted for fall 2019 and messed up my Hep B. ?

The point system is out of 10, first 8 is from overall gpa + science gpa, the rest of the 2 points are from the considerations. All of this info is on the AO BSN website. I think people have been saying that having 8+ points is competitive or if you are employed at a partnered hospital (advisors can provide the list) it's supposedly "golden ticket" lol not sure though I haven't applied yet
