UTHSCSA Spring '07

Published

Just wondering if anyone else is planning/hoping to attend UTHSCSA in the spring. I interviewed and tested last week which went well. I am hoping for a positive letter soon. It seems like everything is moving slowly. I expected that interviews and letters of acceptance would have been done much earlier. Maybe some of them were and I am clueless!

Congrats to all who have been accepted!

my friend who attend the medical school there told me the scrub are pink,,thats gonna be weird since im a male nurse....hopefully its dif. for male hehee but pink would do i really dont care hehe

Congrats to all of you. You have a long 2 years ahead of you but it is worth it in the end if you find a job you love. I graduate in December and can't wait.

Anyways, uniform for school of nursing (the generic program) is all white....including shoes. Some instructors have you wear a white button up scub top while others will allow you to wear a regular white scrub top. So, you may not want to buy anything until you know for sure....you probably would not go wrong buying a regular white scrub top however. The only times you don't have to wear white is at Laurel Ridge for psych you will wear hunter green scrubs and for the other psych places i believe it's regular business casual clothes. Also, in your peds clinical you can wear colorful/print scrubs.

Best of luck to all of you. If you ever have any questions feel free to ask.

I've looked all around and i see good price and bad price for an apartments and also bad rating that isnt worth the amount. So i was wondering anyone would give me some list of good apartment they think is safe and affordable that they reccommnd. thanks

well, whats ur budget? The apartment i found was oaks of northgate on oakdell way. The reviews are mixed but every apartment has problems. I think their pretty quiet but they dont have a gate. I will be paying $515 a month. I also found the hills at woodway which are decent but apartments are smaller starting at 565. I wanted more room thats why i chose oaks at northgate.

Hi y'all,

I'm conditionally accepted for a fall seat in the PhD in Nursing program at UTHSCSA.

This is really exciting news for me. I'm from Chicago but have been living in SA since July, (I'm an Army nurse at BAMC).

Nice to read you.
