  1. UT Houston (Fall 2014 applicants)

    Just wanted to wish everyone luck while applying! I applied and graduated from UTHealth in 2011 but it just seems like yesterday that I was at these boards waiting with my future classmates :) I logged back into allnurses since I wanted some tips f...

    Just wanted to let you all know that I was offered a spot in the Seton Select program early last week. Sorry for the delay! I don't have any other details, but am very excited! Good luck to those looking! Hope everyone is having a great Labor Day ...

    Hi all! Hope everyone has been having a great summer and has been staying out of this heat! captain byakuya- I've heard back from the nurse manager of the Seton Select program. The interview is scheduled for tomorrow. The manager actually called...

    Some people brought their laptops to orientation just to make sure they could log onto the school's internet. I brought that and a folder to put papers and stuff in. I want to say that lunch will be provided, but don't quote me on that... my memory...

    You will probably start clinicals late February/early March.
  7. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    I agree, the days are VERY long! It eases off though your 3rd and 4th semester when you only have to be at school for one day for 2 classes (9 to 12 and then 1 to 4)

    Sholman713, I looked on the course schedule and they haven't listed times on some of these courses, but from what I remember from my first semester, this is what I can make out. Health assessment: this course has been online the past couple semeste...

    The UT Houston Bookstore website (http://webmedbooks.com/uthnursing/coursebooks/courseSearch.aspx) will let you search for textbooks by course number. However, they don't seem to have the lists. If you post your email address or PM me your email ad...

    Yes, you'll definitely be able to register even though you have to wait until then. You will never have to worry about them running out of spots for you! :) Some of my friends couldn't get their transcripts in until after christmas and they still ...
  11. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    I think that is the hold on your account that will be there until transcripts indicating that ALL required courses have been completed. I think that's it... if my memory serves me correct. Technically, you really don't have to get the titers. I...
  12. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    No problem :) I really don't want to do schoolwork anyhow! haha! They will give you a complete list of everything you will need for Care I and clinicals in your admissions packet. Yes, I really like my stethoscope and I would recommend it :) I...

    Parking is not pretty... You will be on campus three times a week at least (usually for the first month or so) 1. If you park in the garages, then it's best to park across the street at MDA ($10 if you're there over 5 hours) OR park in the open lot ...

    For your first and second semester you'll probably wear scrubs about once a week. I only bought two pairs of scrubs and I was just fine my first semester. The second semester you will take psych... most sites require you to wear business casual, bu...
  15. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    No problem! :) I'm happy to help you all as much as I can!
  16. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    I think mine was from 9am to 3pm.
  17. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    I want to say they are $25 to $30 per set (I think this includes the patch which costs $5 each). No, it doesn't matter if you buy scrubs that are a different shade of navy than what the bookstore sells. If you are not buying from the school just ma...

    It will be changed once you send in a copy of your card to the school. When your admissions packet arrives there will be directions in there to tell you how to remove all the holds on your account.

    Thanks :)
  20. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    Just curious... when is the orientation for you guys? Also, does it say that you will be having a boot camp in January?
  21. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    I'm pretty sure you cannot get into advanced patho since this is a masters level course, but you can definitely fill out a course petition to see if you can receive credit for the patho course you took. You can also do this for pharm if you so choos...
  22. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    The holds will be taken off after you fill out the appropriate forms given to you in your acceptance packet.
  23. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    congrats to all those who have been accepted! :) I'm sure you all are looking forward to starting classes in the spring. Looking forward to meeting all of you next semester! To those still waiting, hang in there! I'm guessing they will be updat...
  24. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    There are some people in my class that worked part time during the first semester. It was somewhat doable since there was only one clinical and it did not start until the middle of the semester. Since we took more hours in the summer (17 hours), it...
  25. Spring 2011 UT Health Sciences Nursing Hopefuls

    That's correct! my class will be graduating in may 2011 (first weekend in may to be exact)! we're all beyond excited!
