Hey! I am applying for the Accelerated BSN program at UT Health Science Center Houston that starts in the summer and had couple of questions. I didn't see any topics regarding that particular session (saw the Spring 2014 one) so I started this one.
So I have most of my prereqs for nursing but I still need to take my science prereqs during the upcoming fall semester. I had taken most of the prereqs (like english, psychology, etc) during high school, like dual credit, and now I just need my science classes and a few extra prereqs (like sociology).
The main question that I had about the application process was if I am eligible to apply just yet? I want to enter the summer term and will complete all my prereqs by Spring 2014. But the deadline is Dec 1 (if i'm right). Would I have to complete my science prereqs first? Or could I send in what I have and continually update them with my grades? I will complete all other requirements before the deadline (taking the HESI in October), but my grades won't be complete till after the deadline.
Thanks in advance for any help and i'm looking forward to other applicants for this session!
Hi do you guys know from previous years how many people generally apply for the summer? Thanks!
I went to an information session a few months back and I believe they said something like 1,200 applicants for Spring/Fall. I can't see why Summer would be any different, especially since they are streamlining all the programs into a single option.
I was put on the wait list for the spring of 2014 , and just today offered admission for the summer of 2014. Your stats are about the same as mine! Your nusing GPA is higher than mine, I had a 3.5. So I think you will do just fine :) Good luck!

I do not have one. At the info session they did say that they don't take that into consideration, they look strictly at pre-req GPA, science GPA, and HESI scores.
My application status still shows incomplete. Anyone else having this problem?
Have you finished all your pre-req classes? When you have finished all of your classes required it will change for incomplete to complete. Or if you are accepted it will change from incomplete to accepted! Hope this helped :)
