Hello everyone! This thread is for everyone applying to the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston. I believe they will be accepting applications from January 15-April 1, so the sooner the better! Their admission requirements are pretty standard:
Minimum Pre-Req Gpa: 2.75
Minimum Science Gpa: 3.0
Minimum HESI A2 score: 75% or higher on all required sections - math, reading comprehension, vocabulary/general knowledge, grammar, anatomy and physiology, critical thinking.
My info is really not that competitive, but I'm going to give it a shot anyways -
Pre-Req Gpa: 3.30
Science Gpa: 3.0 (Barely cutting it! )
Overall Gpa: 3.28
Hesi score: 93.3% overall, with my lowest score being a 90.
My gpa is not the best, but I still have 3 more classes to finish this semester, and I'm aiming for all A's! I think the best thing I have going for me is my HESI scores.
Anyone else planning on applying? What are your stats? Any questions? Lets hear them, and good luck to all who are applying!
Hey guys, my holds were just updated. They show "Start Term" and "End Term" ---> Begin Term.
And the "Start Date" ---> 08/15/2011, which is the first day of Fall semester. HOWEVER, why do they show 2011 instead of 2012. =))))))))) I swear to God. My heart is breaking apart rite now. And I will get a heart attack if I have to wait over the weekend!!!!!!! Is there anyone has the same error as mine????
i have no updates on my hold. nothing. im guessing this is not a good sign and im also guessing if anything was supposed to be done today it would have?
anyone else in the same boat as mee?
to all those who have update holds congratulationss yall deserve it!
Don't worry meghana09...my status online hasn't changed at all! No green circle of completion (still that evil yellow triangle) and no holds whatsover. Maybe they are just trying to finish up one set of applicants before starting on another set.
Meghana- I have no updated holds as well. I am wanting to believe what was told to whomever the brave soul who called was told...The system was being fixed today and everyone is going to have different holds. While it may be a good sign, I think that there are some people who will get in that don't have the holds!
Letters sent out Monday! So Wednesday we will know for sure! Why can't they just e-mail us? lol, NOW!
@meghana09 - you're definitely not alone. i still don't have any changes in my "to do" or "holds". I'd like to believe that they might be doing it in the same order the transcript evals went out... which in that case, i felt like I was at the end. or, maybe in the order that they received applications, which again, mine was later (right before xmas). i'm going to keep hoping that i have a chance! i think we all do :) good luck!!!
This is a really random, off topic question... Do we need a Biology elective? I know UTMB requires one and I know UTHSC wanted 5 hrs of elective but I was not sure if they had to be science.
Both my science and pre-req GPAs were just under 3.7, I don't remember my cumulative grade for the Hesi, but my lowest section was 96 and I made 100 on one or 2 sections. My critical thinking was 830.
OMG! My holds changed. Last year when I applied my holds never changed. I have the CPR and the immunization holds. I also just received my Eval in the mail just a few days ago. What does this mean???????? I am nervous!
