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!!!!
New here. Honestly, I stayed away from here because I was afraid of finding out and feeling exactly the way I'm feeling right now: completely and utterly disappointed and crushed. When I found out that people had been accepted as early as Oct. 20, I was just defeated. I'm really trying to hold on to a little bit of hope as I haven't heard anything yet, but at this point... It's dwindling by the second... My stats are as follows:
I sent in my application late June, but still had courses for pre-reqs to complete for Summer and Fall sessions (currently enrolled in Music, Chemistry, Intro to Phil, and Statistics)
Overall GPA (at time of application) - 3.2
Science GPA (at time of application) - 4.0
HESI:
Reading - 96
Grammar - 96
Vocabulary - 92
A/P - 88
Math - 90
CT - 890
I was very worried about my overall GPA - it's so low, because I was young, dumb, and stupid, and didn't bother to think about how my actions then would affect me down the road. So, I have a fair amount of repeated classes and W's. I tried hard not to get my hopes up because of this, but I held hope that having a 4.0 in my sciences would help me. In any case, I want to extend my congratulations to all that were accepted and wish you all the best of luck!
What about PV? or getting an ADN and then doing an RN-BSN bridge?
After reading "denied" I started looking into PV. I noticed I need more classes and I think HCC doesn't offer some pre reqs. Also looking at Lonestar rn. I should've applied there too honestly for spring 2017 :/
Yes. I applied to TWU too but I was denied there too. I had so much hope for UTH ������ my last resort is Chamberlain but I don't want to graduate ASAP only to pay off loans after graduating :/
What are your stats for TWU? And your Teas score if you don't mind me asking?

I have similar stats as you... it's really disappointing. You haven't heard anything yet? That should be a good sign right?
As of this moment, no, I haven't heard anything. I suppose "no news is good news," but I've been waiting since JUNE, and to come on here and see that people were accepted as of Oct 20 is really discouraging... Granted, my stats aren't NEARLY as high as others... This process is just really... ugh. Lol. I think one of the worst parts is if I don't get into UTH - even in the Summer - the soonest I can apply for with other schools is Fall 2017. And I'd have to study for TEAS and I haven't TOUCHED AP for a year for AP1 and six months for AP2. That's quite the daunting task, but I guess since I'd have the whole Spring semester off... Anyway, here's to that little sliver of hope that I somehow make it in...

I'm in the exact same situation as you. Applied back in June, & although about 99.9% of hope has faded, I am holding onto that .1% and praying for some good news tomorrow. I cannot even FATHOM waiting for Fall 2017.

It would truly devastate me, having to wait for Fall '17...
I received an email late yesterday, kind of knew it was bad news at that point, I was denied. For those still waiting I think it may be a good sign begin that yesterday's notifications were seemingly all denials. Good luck to everyone still waiting!
im currently taking statistics and am hoping for a B. This is the hardest class from all the ore requisites I've take .
it's a lot of numbers I know, the hardest part it feels is keeping the numbers straight before you even get to the problem! But you can do it!! Keep faith
If you're struggling go over the first few months of classwork, that is the foundation for the rest of the course. Once you get that straight, the next few months shouldn't be horribly difficult.
I called UTH just now and asked about the waitlist. On their website, it says that sometime on, or around November 15th people will
be notified if they are waitlisted, denied, or accepted. So I called to confirm that information, and I was told that they have until November 15th to send out actual letters about waitlist, acceptance, or denial. It may not be sent through the portal or through email, but by actual mail... so who knows when we'll find out. It may not even be today! But I would still check email/my UTH portal periodically through out the day.
As for me, I am waitlisted. So I asked... does acceptance/denial extend beyond the Nov. 15th date for those on the waitlist... and I was told that waitlisted applicants can be accepted/denied up until the second week of DECEMBER. So the waiting game continues.
I just cannot keep waiting on and on like this...especially people have recieved their acceptance as early as October 20th. It's defeating and discouraging, but it's just the way it is. So looks like we all just have to keep waiting.

Hey all,
New here. Honestly, I stayed away from here because I was afraid of finding out and feeling exactly the way I'm feeling right now: completely and utterly disappointed and crushed.
