UTHSC Summer 2017

Published

Hi everyone, I just wanted to begin a thread for all UT Health SON students who are applying for Summer 2017. I didn't see a thread created for this term yet. I look forward to getting to know all of you as we begin this long journey. Feel free to share anything regarding the application process and/or ask any questions that you may have!

Hi everyone,

For those who have a transcript evaluation, did you have to submit a request for it or did they just send it?

I have called and asked about it and the registrar's office said the school has to request it. I called the school and was told the office of the registrar handles those, and that I'll need to request it from registrar.

I'm just needing some clarification, since I couldn't get one from either place.

Thanks!

I received one without asking, they just sent it. All my pre-requisites are completed and I have a complete status on my UTH student center. I am unsure why some get it and others do not. So even those who have a "complete" statu are getting them along with those with an "imcomplete". Just like the person above me said it before, it is a bit inconsistent.

It seems like, if all your pre-requisites are complete and there are no questions regarding your eval, you do not receive it. The registrar makes one for every applicant the school requests. I was told that happens after they filter based on HESI scores.

This is not the case,those with all pre-reqs completed and no questions about our eval still receive the transcript evaluation.

The wait is definitely tough! Just try to stay occupied. When you finally get your acceptance (because you will!) it's going to be a great day!

Hi,

I was also at the info session last week. I was the person that asked about the foreign transcripts and also about the intensity of the summer course load. I applied in the Spring, was sent an eval, and told what courses I needed to complete. I've had my summer application in for some time now. Recently, I did a Fall app, as well. I have not received an eval this time around, but based on the last one, I'm confident I will have completed all of them by the end of this semester. Just waiting impatiently. Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello all,

I still have an "incomplete" status with a yellow triangle. No link and I have not received a transcript evaluation.

This past week I received back an email from the recruiting/alumni affairs staffer.

If anyone is in the same boat as me this may help you for Fall applications.

Took the HESI initially June 2016 under UTH's school code (two-attempt limit with their code).

Unsatisfactory math score, studied and retook December 2016 under HCC's school code.

Forwarded HESI score to UTH and sent application for Summer 2017.

When I called admissions to confirm receipt of HESI and transcript from college, I was told the HCC attempt counted against my two-attempt limit with UTH.

This is not what the website says, or information sessions have advised.

I emailed the contact from an online information session, and she confirmed no matter how many times you take with another schools code it will not count against you - even if you send the scores to UTH.

The whole point of this issue is; although I improved my HESI scores I don't feel it's competitive enough and wanted to re-apply for Fall with another attempt. However, I did not want to make it a futile attempt if they wouldn't accept the scores.

Hope this helps anyone with any HESI confusion.

They can't see your hesi record if u did take under other schools code, but the two times meant we only send our hesi record to UT health twice in the lifetime, so since u send the hesi record under HCC, they count it as second time。

Forgive me if it has already been posted, but did you apply to any other schools? I have apps in to UTHSC, UTMB, & UTA.
