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!!!!
well everyone I am having a panic attack and cannot bring myself to check the portal. It's been such a stressful wait that I would hate to be disappointed with a big fat red X.. I think i will wait till the end of my work day at least because I will be crying like a baby either way.. If someone can squeeze me in to their prayer, I would greatly appreciate it. If I don't get in I have also applied for ADN programs in hopes of starting somewhere Spring 2017. I am so very Happy to hear the great news from everyone that was accepted. Also one question: Has anyone that has prereq's pending been accepted? the website said they would not consider anyone who was not 100% complete..
I don't think you'll find an X there because rejections aren't being sent out yet. It'll either have a green check or there should be no change at all.
I don't have any previous Bachelor's or Associate's degree.
I honestly think my stats are not all that great because of my HESI scores. I was really worried because of that and the fact that I didn't apply to any other nursing programs. I know you will get in, don't worry!
Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted!!! Mine still says complete but I will be obsessively checking until I get some kind of decision.
My stats:
overall GPA- 3.6
science GPA- 3.2
HESI overall- 91.2 / 84 in A&P
CT- 890
My GPA isn't that great so I am super worried. If I don't get in I will have to apply to UTMB and make that drive from Houston every day. I'm going to get this BSN one way or another though. Just really hoping for UTH. Good luck everyone!
