Does that sound about rt? The Red One u in the. Generic bsn. Program I'm just wondering since we would b going to class most of the week I keep second guessing living off the island. I'm just worried about traffic I always here crazy stories about Houston traffic

I think the Clear Lake area would probably work pretty well for you. I've lived here for 3 years. I'd be glad to see what I can hunt down for you. Do you have any pets? Do you need washer/dryer hookups?

After the hurricane, a lot of apartment complexes jacked up their rent to cover damages, so the places that I would recommend to you might be higher than they were when I lived there. I used to live at Green Oaks, its off of Highway 3 and Pineloch in Webster/Clear Lake area. I really liked living there, i want to say their smallest one bedroom is around $520. You take 45 south to the Clear Lake City Boulevard/Friendswood exit, and take a left at the light so that you are going under the bridge. When you get to highway 3, take a right, and then a right at the next light (that is Pineloch, it will be about a mile). The leasing office is right there on the corner. That one is a good location because you get onto 45 and then its a straight shot down to the island. The problem with a lot of places in the Clear Lake area is the construction that is going on by 45/Nasa Rd 1, it was supposed to be done already but its taking awhile. So I would avoid anything on Nasa Rd 1, but there are a ton of apartment complexes around here.

Message me if you have a list of a few you want to check out and I'll tell you what I know about them. To answer your question I live in Dickinson but work in CL. So I am off the island, but I would like to move out back to Clear Lake. That area (League City/Webster/Clear Lake/Kemah/Seabrook) is a good area, there are tons of people, and its a good middle area between the island and med center.

Hope this helps.

I was just wondering for those of us who have gotten in, what kind of experience you have had in the medical field if any. I am currently on the wait list and i am trying to figure out a back up plan in case I dont get in. THANKS
