UTH Cizik School of Nursing Spring 2021 (Pacesetter)

Published

Hi everyone! I found this forum last night and figured I would create this for anyone who wants to discuss the pacesetter program for Spring 2021. The application deadline will be here before we know it! I will be taking courses at San Jac this Summer to finish my pre-reqs ( a lot of the unfortunately ). Hope everyone is staying safe and taking this time to prepare as much as possible. I had been volunteering at Methodist but unfortunately that has ceased for now. Post anything you’d like here!

Im curious to know whether if they look at honors. For example, Phi Theta Kappa & National Honor Collegiate in the transcripts. or does that even show up in the transcripts?

I think definitely. They look for well-rounded candidates bc they have so many in the same GPA/HESI range. Also volunteer work. You’ll have a chance to showcase all of that on your application

Hey! Unfortunately, they don’t look at any of that stuff or take into account any previous jobs you may have held in the healthcare field. (This is all information we received in the webinar a couple weeks ago!) I don’t think any National Honor Society memberships show up on your transcript (but you can always double check by requesting to view an unofficial transcript!!). Also, there is no place to input volunteer work or previous employment (unless you were in the military) on the UTH app. However, they DO see if you graduated with High Honors, since it is written on your diploma and your transcript! Hope this helped! ?

unfortunately from the info sessions they said they will only look at transcripts and HESI scores.

Hi everyone,

I applied to the Pacesetter BSN program for Fall 2020 but got waitlisted. I have not heard anything from the school regarding an available spot as of yet. After taking a science class in the Summer, I sent my updated transcript. Now I am planning on applying for the Spring 2021 semester; however, I am not sure if I am supposed to re-send the same HESI scores to the school or not. Will they use my previously sent scores into consideration, or do I have to send my scores again? Any help will be appreciated ?

Hi, I would call them to see if your HESI is on file with the registrar's office but if not- it wouldn't hurt to send again just to cover all your bases and be 100% sure

Hi everyone! I just sent in my application for Spring! I just need to get my transcripts sent over now. Do you know if they prefer them mailed physically or emailed/faxed over to the registrar? Thanks for your help!

Email is preferred and faster.
