UTHSCSA Spring 2015

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

I haven't seen a thread for the Health Science Center in San Antonio, so I decided to create one since I am curious as to when we will find out if we are accepted or not. I am very nervous! I really want to go to this school but I know a couple of people that didn't get accepted from previous terms that had a better GPA or a better TEAS V score than I do. I am praying!!!

My last name ends in D. I'm sure more people will get them. Unless that means mine is going to take longer then I don't hope so lol

Your last name ends or starts with D? Mine starts with L

Does anyone know how good and efficient is the public transportation in san antonio? I used to live in Vancouver, Canada and loved to just take the bus instead of driving. Now I live in houston and own a car, but I wish I could sell it and use the public transporation :) what do you all think?

I would imagine that a good chunk of the applicant pool isn't qualified. When I have spoken to admissions at UT and elsewhere in the past, there are quite a few people that apply even though they don't have mandatory pre-reqs completed. In any case, good luck all and I hope to be there in the spring to meet you :)

Thank you for mentioning that your email was in the junk mail, I was worried because I had not received that email, then I checked my junk mail and there it was...

Unfortunately public transportation is not great... It's sufficient but I personally would not sell my car and depend on it.... Especially with practicals

To echo what Neptune said, the primary means of public transportation would be the VIA bus system and it leaves a lot left to be desired. Depending on where you decide to live, it can be a change or two between destinations. They do run quite a few to the Medical Center, but it can still take far too long. A good idea might be to check areas where you are thinking about moving and plug them into Google Maps with the public transportation option to get a feel for how convenient it might be. My house is only 5 miles away but would take an hour and 2 buses to get to campus.
