UTHSCSA Spring 2016

Published

I'm considering going to nursing school through the Baptist Health System in San Antonio or UTHSCSA. Most people I get advice from tell me hands down to go for UTHSCSA. I would like to hear from more of you who are currently enrolled or have gone through the nursing school program at either one of these locations in San Antonio. What did you like about the teachers, faculty, the content you were learning, etc. What were your hours like at school and if you had kids, how did you manage your time.

I am still a pre-nursing student and have one more semester in Spring of 2014 to complete before I can apply. I am very excited and just want to know more information. Also, a close family friend is attending nursing school at Wayland Baptist and informed me that their nursing program is shutting down. Is there any truth to this?

Did you guys check out that long freaking list of things we have to turn in before we start the semester, and all those fees? A computer, the programs, ATI review, scrub tops, books, like that all comes out to $3000... I don't know about you guys but I don't have that kinda money just lying around. Looks like I'll be working even more overtime.

Here's the Facebook link. Everyone join so we can get to know each other. I've heard we'll be spending a lot of time together...lol. All I've done was created the group so if anyone wants to admin let me know and if possible I'll pass it off.

And yes, I totally got a job last month in anticipation of the laptop but this is crazy!!

We are the graduating class of fall 2017. I just kinda did what the other classes did...should we change it?? I tried to make it so we are all admins so anybody should be able to change it.

I'd leave it, other classes have done that too

So I'm confused at the moment. If I accept my offer, yet a school I prefer to attend more accepts me on like the 11th, can I just accept the other school's offer still? I'm not blind to 1 school if I accept it right?

All you do is lose the seat fee ($250 for in state) when you then withdraw from UTHSCSA.

P.S.- Accepted! See you all there (maybe not CoolBeans7 if the 11th goes their way).

Coolbeans, you can accept as long as you do so by the 9th. The seat deposit isn't due until noon of the 18th. And this is not a contract, so you aren't bound to anything. If you hear from another school by then all you have to do is miss the seat deposit deadline and they will fill your spot with someone from the waiting list. But be kind and let the school know that you changed your mind asap so that someone on the waiting list can have a chance sooner.

Hey all! I got accepted too! I'm so excited!! I'd love to communicate with our fellow classmates before we start, maybe even meet up! Just out of curiosity, what are your GPA and TEAS scores?
