Hey all, well we've gotten to it... it starts tomorrow. Anyone planning on meeting tomorrow? I will be getting there for the breakfast they have listed (at least coffee) and look forward to meeting those of you I haven't met yet. It's not hard to mis...

Hey all, been a while since anyone has posted (including me) but just wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year since this coming year is bringing about the start of it all! Can't wait to see everyone next week. Are we going to try and meet up at the ...

Quick question... anyone else still have the background check hold? I can't seem to get that taken care of yet, just wondering if I'm the only one, I still haven't even received the blue postcard that the Board of Nursing is supposed to send. Let me ...

Hey all... Cali, same here, good to meet you. I was surprised at the turnout, there were a lot of people there, although half of them were Graduate students it seemed... yeah it went a little long, I stayed until 6:45 or so, but they answered a lot o...

Hey jklivin, here's the info from the email: "A big congratulation is in order for all of you who were recently admitted to the UT Health Science Center School of Nursing for the Spring 2010 semester. We would like to welcome you to our campus by ho...

Hey all... out of town here but getting back tomorrow. Cheeky, I think Cali had mentioned meeting up at starbucks after the meet and greet that the school is hosting on December 2. Will you be there? See you all in a couple of days...

This is cool, I look forward to reading these new updates everyday since we are getting closer and closer to it. I still have my immunization hold too CE. I also still have my background hold so I called and they said that they were working on it sti...

Hi Nurse-Losy, welcome to the board. I think you are the only one so far that I've seen that has been admitted for Graduate studies at UTHSCSA on this thread. From what I've read mostly all of us who have been posting are going into the undergraduate...

Cali, when did you get that card? Did you get it in the mail?

Cali, another question: does it still show a hold for you regarding the background check along with the immunization hold? I know you had your fingerprints done last week, I had mine done last Wednesday yet it still shows a hold for me on the school'...

Cali, did you have to do the online modules too? I'm just curious if anyone else got those in their new school email. Cyclical, you finished turning in all your paperwork? How about you Kassiah? Hey Kristy, have you gotten your paperwork yet?

Hey cwdoll, when you open your email through login.live.com there should be at least two emails from the school containing "training" modules, such as what to do in the event you get stuck by a needle and also about online security with school comput...

Welcome to the board jklivin. Look forward to meeting you.

Kristy, that's awesome! Glad to have you as a fellow student! Cali, I got that same email and set up my info. I took the three training courses online already, they took about half an hour each to complete. I turned in all my info today to the health...

CWDoll, yeah, generally people who get chickenpox don't have to see a doctor; I grew up on Army bases so going to the military hospitals was always free of charge for us and because of that I have my record of my chickenpox.

Hey all... Cali, I went to drop off my immunization sheet also and what do you know, they were closed until Monday, oh well. CE, those are actually inexpensive costs for all those tests/shots that you need when compared to the prices I was quoted at ...

Hey Cali, I too am turning in my vaccination info tomorrow as soon as I go and get my TB test reading; and thanks for the info on Texas MedClinic. We're not too far off now...CWDoll, I agree with Cali, go with what you think is best for you. I did re...

Welcome to the board cheeky and congrats on your acceptance! I know what you mean about the caffeine addiction; if i could I'd have an I.V. inserted for direct coffee injection! Wait a second, as a nurse I'll learn how to do I.V.s, so all I need to d...

Hey Cali, where did you get your titer/vaccination done? I have all of my shots, just need someone to sign off on the sheet we need to turn in as well as get my TB test done. Thanks!

Kristy, I am so sorry to hear that...

Hey Cali, I'm all for meeting up, maybe over a cup of coffee, to get to know any fellow students that want to attend a meet 'n' greet prior to orientation. From what I've read, the orientation consists of some icebreakers in order to get to know othe...

Congrats to rls74, starlight, and andan! Andan, I believe they only have a very limited amount of slots available for the accelerated program (something like 20), and after those are filled they may put people who applied for the accelerated program ...

Winnie, sorry to hear that you won't be our classmate, but happy to hear that you're still going to be a fellow RN. When one door closes, another one opens... Glad to hear that! BOND, I personally don't live in the medical center area so therefore co...

Congrats to Cali and BOND! Exciting news! Looking forward to meeting you all... Winney, you still waiting for your letter in California? AFmed, we look forward to hearing of your acceptance! Here's wishing you all more luck...

Way to go CE!
