   Email **** at the School of Nursing and make sure they have your application. Applications first go to Enrollment Services and then to SON. You are your own best advocate! I was told by Enrollment Services that my application was being processed but ...

   PAMQ it took them a month from when SON got my application to when I got a call for an interview. You know they have your packet so that is half the battle. Do not get discouraged, many people who got into UTMB also got into other schools and may cho...

    I have a friend at UTMB right now and she said there are better apartments on the West Beach side of the island. They are gated, the area is safer, and there are shops such as Kroger and Wal Mart. They are pretty affordable as well ($600 - $800).

    Tiki, mine came via e-mail yesterday. I was hoping you had heard something...I was at the same Open House as you. I am guessing you were the guy down front since we were the only two there with applications for Fall.

    That question comes up at every nursing school open house and they all say the same thing, it is a ratio of students to teachers that determines the class size. The State requires a 10/1 teacher to student ratio and each school can only hire so many ...
