   mcf011, I park at garage 8 on the SW corner of Pressler & Holcombe. I walk to school from there which is about 1/2 mile and takes 10 min or so, but there's a TMC blue shuttle that you can take if...

   Haha well health assessment doesn't have lecture, just lab time. Care you'll be in the skills lab until you start clinicals, and there's maybe 1 or 2 sim labs or something after that. They're...

   Yeah it's just people talking, some of it's worthwhile and other things aren't. Navy blue scrubs. You wear them for clinical and anytime you're in the skills lab, which will be every Monday for health...

   Yeah, there's a HESI for every class. You'll take a fundamentals (for care I), patho, and health assessment HESI first semester. I think they're doing the pharm HESI in the last semester now. There's...

   Yes, and there is a form that you will need to bring with you to have filled out.

   I've heard of people not receiving acceptance letters until the week before classes actually started, so you want to make sure you're as ready to go as

   UT Houston doesn't make you pay a deposit! For those that are still waiting, I recommend looking up what vaccines are required for the schools you applied to and get anything that you don't have yet,...

   I wouldn't read ahead because you won't be responsible for all the info in the book (and you don't need the book for pharm, btw), the instructors will narrow it down for you so that you know what to...

   & to those of you still waiting to be accepted, as long as you meet the criteria, don't give up hope! There was someone in my class who was accepted like, the day before classes started. Not...

    We'll see how it goes, I personally like the traditional program and find it disappointing they're not offering the choice anymore... Patho and pharm were challenging but I enjoyed both classes and...

    Congratulations to everyone who was accepted! I'm currently an S1 (third semester) at UTHSC so I might see some of you around next spring. To the person trying to decide between UTHSC and HBU, I've...

    oceanise replied to Ladybug3's topic in Texas Nursing

    The school was advertising a $89/month contract that's supposedly a "discount" price. If I remember correctly, it wasn't even that close to campus. There's others where you can pay for the whole...

    oceanise replied to Ladybug3's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yeah, it's horrible. I think the garages closer to campus are $12/day(!!!) and the one across the street on Holcombe (garage 2 if I remember correctly) is like 8 levels or something ridiculous. So I...

    If there's a convenient metro route near you, or a park and ride or something, you might want to consider that. Or take the shuttle if you can. I don't take the metro so I don't really have much info...
