UTHSCSA-Fall 2011

U.S.A. Texas

Published

Hi All,

Since January 10th was the application deadline, do any of you have an idea as to when the earliest when we will hear from UTHSC-San Antonio? I already have my bachelor's degree in a non-nursing subject but I opted for the 2-year traditional route because the accelerated program just seemed too intense. Are there other 2nd degree folks out there applying to the 2 year program as well? Good luck to you all! I hope we are all there in the Fall!

when you drop off the immunization form do they look at it and tell you if its ok and complete? I have some questions about mine and have e-mailed the student health clinic but have not gotten a response.

I emailed the clinic last Wednesday to ask a few questions and haven't received an email either. I guess they are busy or a bit behind. Frustrating none the less.

When I went in, the lady checked my records and then asked for the health insurance. So yes, they do tell you it's complete. If you have the time, I think you should just go in and personally hand in the forms. And make sure you make COPIES just in case they lose it. Always best to be on the safe side!

When filling out the forms on the Health Insurance Coverage Information form, does anyone know what to put for the "Program Verification Year: From ___ month/year to ____ month/year"?

The nurse at the site told me to put Aug 2011 to summer 2012, I would ask just to verify.

Hello, I just found this thread. I was accepted as well. Does anybody know which cpr class we need to take? congrats to all that were accepted and good luck to those on the wait list.

Congratulations to those who got in!!!!

Ill be a 3rd semester by fall 2011! time goes by so fast!

Does anybody know anything about the laptops yet? Like the size and how much?

Off Topic [but]: HAPPY NURSE'S WEEK EVERYBODY!

Even though we're just students :]

I don't have any updates about the computers, sorry.

On the other hand, and I know this is about a year away, but do any of you have information regarding summer paid externships? Do hospitals in San Antonio offer paid jobs to students after their first year of nursing school? I am already trying to organize summer 2012 and getting some sort of externship in S.A. is my #1 priority, I just don't know how any of it works!

Hi all! I graduate here on the 21st. I just wanted to let you all know that this school isn't all that it's cracked up to be. The school is poorly operated. Most of the time they have no idea what is going on. The curriculum is always changing, leaving students unprepared. The majority of the staff is nice....the teachers that is. The people who run the nursing department are a bunch of twits. Don't expect any help from them. Expect to have ridiculous charges to your tuition. Expect to pay for mandatory fees on items you don't want. Expect to be called liars and cheaters as well. You can't fund raise and the school does not really care for a graduation. We had to raise our own money for our pinning ceremony. The school thought it was below us to have one. Our graduation is not seen as anything special. We don't even have it at UTHSCSA. We have it at St. Marys. The clinical rotation sites for the most part are not that bad. Only the mental health ones are...but that's not my thing. To make a long story short, safe yourself the agony and torture and find another school. I wish I would have.
