UT-H BSN program Fall 2006

Me! We should figure out a way to get the UT-H allnurses community together to meet before classes start. Maybe during the indoc?

Me too!..Im excited to get started and meet everyone too. I think it would be great to meet both new and current students that are a year ahead. I think coinciding it with orientation would be easiest.

Where is everyone from? Ill be commuting from the Richmond/Rosenberg area (ugh!) but thats definitely a small price to pay

i live in the loop in upper kirby. it's shamefully close, but it will seem far to me, since it's much farther than my commute to hcc!

According to the Student Policy Manual its navy scrubs, white lab jacket, and UT student name tag.

wow..congrads..i'm far behind. I am at san jac "trying" to get my AAS in RN. Its tough. I started collge in 2000 and i really messed and dropped out. Now that I am older. I want to go back full time and get my career started. Any advice to get into a school o for BSN. I am really stressed out and scared that I am too late to become a nurse. My math skilss are horrible. can someone give me advcie, any one went to san jac college in houston? how were your grades??? what is the process. this is my dream....

don't worry too much about your math skills. you can always do remedial work and catch up. math is something you have to do all the time to stay fresh (if you're anything like me).

as far as grades, it is very competitive to get into a bsn program these days. many schools only look at courses that they require though, so if you got an F in basket weaving, not to worry. if you want to know about ut-h bsn program, or twu bsn program, you should really take a day and go visit both schools and speak to counselors there. they can address your specific concerns much better than anyone on this forum could. be sure to bring your transcripts, and good luck!

i keep getting this nagging feeling that there's something i should be doing to get ready, but i can't decide what it might be...

are we just supposed to wait until after orientation to buy books and scrubs and supplies? that seems so far off...

No, according to goddessue we can buy books now and scrubs now if we want or other stuff like stethescope, pen light..etc...

I know what you should do. I just filled out my residency questionaire and every student is supposed to fill this out but they didnt mention it anywhere in our packet. I found it by accident online and you need in-state residency verified so that you dont get charged out-of-state tuition.
Here is more info on it from Registrar's office...
