Go ahead and get your assessment book and workbook - these shouldn't change. This is also probably the only book you will NEED to read (and read again), the others make good references. The other...

I wouldn't say they are all "required", they can do a bit overboard with the books. If you are good with reading texts, or like to have them for reference - here is are the ones I would (personally)...

August orientation dates are the 21st and 22nd. For sure the 21st will be all day, the 22nd is usually 1/2 day. All your ordered supplies will be distributed at the end of the second

I can't say for sure they do or don't... What I do know is that TWU looks at GPA (which Ws don't count toward) and they will look at some classes to see if you made a grade the first time you took...

The different sections is just a thing for the university. Like you Lindsey was told, it doesn't matter. For the entire program, you don't get choices in the professors or times - everyone follows...

There is only one building for TWU Houston. When you walk in, there will be people to direct you where to go. There is an attached parking garage which I think is 9$ for all day (no in/out). If you...

If I remember correctly - you only need your shot records, but things may have changed. I wouldn't worry about getting titers done right now if you have your records. As far as money for orientation...

Welcome to some of the mixed messaging of TWU... They want you to have all of your shots/titers done by orientation (with records). However this isn't realistic, so they will have someone on campus...

I am pretty sure there were Fall start students that did. I was a spring start, so it wasn't an option for me. The class is technically a BIOL course, so you may be able to look at the registration...

Yes, you have the summers off. Which is good and bad. You can try to get externships (think paid internship) over the summer, work elsewhere or volunteer. You can also knock out electives (1 is...
