I'm creating this as a communication board for new students/applicants to talk on about:
Current GPA -- science & overall
Requirements needed to apply
HESI test requirements
Applications -- status or general info
Acceptance!
A quick intro-- My name is Maira and I've followed previous threads on here and I love how much information you can get from it! (I followed and read ALL of UTHSC Nursing Spring 2016)
I'm applying at UThealth for the nursing pacesetter program for Spring 2017. The application is due by Aug. 15 and I haven't submitted it yet because I haven't taken the HESI! I'm getting anxious about taking it, have any of y'all taken yours yet?!
Also, I've been meaning to stop by the school and see if my pre-reqs meet their requirements. I'm a bit confused on whether they will average 2 scores of the same class or not. For instance, a long time ago I took a English course and got a F (I was careless and young) and now I retook it and got a A. Another thing that I've been wondering about is what exactly the 5 hours of "electives" are-- will they accept a math class for it?
Well I look forward to meeting all of you!!!! Good luck!!!!
I wonder how they are updating the portal. Is it alphabetical? Is it in the order of when everything was marked complete? Did people have prior degrees? Were they already LPN/LVNs, etc.??
Tesstex, I haven't heard anything at all from UTHealth regarding my admission status yet. (Wish I had tho!) My portal hasn't changed at all. I just know what the acceptance looks like because I was accepted to UTMB in Galveston and they use the same portal system.
I think I'm having a heart attack over here... my stomach is in knots, my chest hurts, and I want to just cry but I cannot... ahhh the anxiety. Anyone else just constantly refreshing this page and their portal page?
I was checking it three times a day lol í ½í¸‚.....when I read littletree got accepted I just woke up and immediately checked it I started crying happy tears. This has been a long journey and I am so happy that my nursing journey has began. Praying that you and everyone get in!
so scared.....
