UTHealth Nursing Spring 2017

[mairafir]

Hello friends!

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 applied for spring 2017, but I got waitlisted. Does anyone know what do I have to do to reapply for a different term, such as sommer 2017?

do I need to star a new application?

@utdent

what were your stats? Did you recieve an email that you got in today, Nov 3? Wow I'm so jealous!

[Tesstex]

My status still states "complete."

[Tesstex]

I'm pretty much giving up for this term, guys.

wish you the best for all that got accepted, and wish you the best for those who didn't.

God has plans for each and everyone of us.

Blessings.

@utdent Congratulations!! That's awesome! Your stats are similar to mine. I'm holding on to the last bit of hope I have left. It's so hard trying to go to bed every night still not knowing if I'm accepted or not. But you just gave me hope! Good luck and start working on your immunizations.

@tesstex I know, it's so defeating. But I think we'll both find out soon. It looks like they're letting waitlist people know if they got in or not now. Hang in there!
