UTHSC (Houston) Spring

Published

This thread is dedicated to the applicants of UT Houston's Spring 2012 application period. I've seen various threads posted throughout the discussion forum regarding the upcoming application period, but they are scattered and hard to keep track of. Maybe if we keep our discussion in one place it will be easier for us all to follow :)

I'm applying with the following stats:

Pre-req GPA: 3.21

Science GPA: 3.66

Overall GPA: 2.81

I know my chances of getting in aren't great with my overall GPA, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed anyway! Please post your stats, your thoughts, your experiences, ideas and opinions here:)

Good luck to everyone!!

@Amymit, Nope I haven't heard a peep out of LSC, but since they didn't accept my Micro class, my score was an entire point lower than it should have been, so I'm sure I will get a denial letter at some point. I only applied to LSC as a back-up to my back-up plan......UTHSC is my first choice school :)

Specializes in Medical/Surgical Telemetry.

seems like everyone is taking stats this semester! I am too, along with Pharmacology, Nutrition, Hist 2, and another Math class. Its a pretty heavy load, but I took 7 classes over the summer and we will all have to be used to heavy loads when we are at UT (which hopefully we all will be! :))

I have officially banned myself from UTLink until October 20.. I was going to drive myself crazy constantly checking it!

ut has changed my tsi status! after a call from the registrar, i also found out for sure i only have arts left which is almos over, it in an 8 week session.

Thanks, katy, you too.

Sara, I was wondering the same thing. But I decided if I don't get in this semester, then I'll take Patho and Pharm at HCC just to get a jump start on those courses for the Fall program. I know they don't transfer, but I'd like to be more prepared.

very good idea! we can take patho at hcc?

I was wondering this as well. I looked for patho at both HCC and Lonestar, but could not find it. Does anyone know what the class title or number is?

it is PTHA 1321 but i dont think we can take it if we are not in a program at hcc that requires it.

according to hcc you have to have;

PTHA 1431, PTHA 1201

If you guys are looking for a cheap way to learn about Patho, you can take an online class from El Centro (it's part of Dallas County Community College District). I'm taking it right now. It's taught entirely through the Evolve website, but it is very challenging, plus you get college credit for it (even though it won't transfer to UTHSC), it will transfer to other schools (UTA). It only cost me $250!! It has to be THE least expensive college class that I've ever taken, but certainly isn't the easiest!

I wish someone at UT would get back to me! I still haven't gotten a transcript evaluation and sent them an email last week about it and haven't heard anything, and when I call, regardless if it's at 8 am or 2 pm, I just get voicemails. How is everyone getting a hold of them?

or call the registrars office three times i called today and someone always picked up.

Email the registrar at '[email protected]' and they will respond quickly.
