What kind of folder are we expected to buy to accommodate our documents? Thanks.

[resilient]

I was going to purchase the folders that have the two pockets and document protectors included....Or I assume a 1'binder with document protectors would be fine also.

Previous class recommend 3 ring binder 1 inch

In looking at the book list, materials, supplies, and tuition we are looking at an expensive year. Can any of the previous students on here advise us on how much we get for loans and is it possible to work on weekends during the program.

I received about 18,000 in financial aid not including the scholarships I got (about 4,000 additional). As far as working on the weekends, it's almost impossible to do that the first semester b/c it's so intense. I do know that some people worked summer and fall. But it depends on how much you need to study to make the grades. I had to study all day on the weekends in order to make As and Bs....some people are lucky and can barely study and make As. I'd suggest getting the first round of tests out of the way before deciding if a weekend job is right for you!

Can anyone tell me what the university of Houston is looking for to get admitted? I am applying for the spring 2014 program but I need advice on the admission process and what they are looking for in future nursing students. Thanks ?

[chavoncrn]

Also to any previous nursing student they always state that the program is intense. Is it intense because of the studying and retaining information? I'm trying to figure this out because I am nervous. Also I have children is the program doable with children and advice please. Thanks

This is a question for those who are currently in the second degree BSN program. What are the typical hours per day? I know the program is extensive. I'm just wondering how many hour are class time and how many clinical? Thanks.
