I absolutely love UTHSCSA! I am a full time Nursing student there and my experience thus far has been wonderful! The campus itself took some adjustments because it is a huge campus! The professors are incredible, they are all passionate about the students they teach. For my personally that is what makes the school so amazing, is the professors. I
am expected to graduate December 2022 and I am so thrilled I cant not wait! I have already learned so much in just one year! I have about one more to go!
Start Your Review of University of Texas - Health Science Center at San Antonio
The medical school has numerous healthcare professional programs that can garner an interest in anybody. I'm currently in the Respiratory Care Program (RC) and in my opinion, there's no other career choices that can get hands on than this program. I guarantee this program is all about getting hands on with the equipment, machines, and medications that has
to do with respiratory and I could say the same with all other programs available in this university. Common issue with students; they don't get enough hand on materials regarding their career path, but respiratory offers hands on materials.
The experience I had at UTHSCSA was outstanding. Not only
was the program all online which assisted in creating a schedule which I could work full time but the professors made the program worth wild. Each professor I encountered was willing to answer questions and the courses where organized in such a way that didnt feel like other online courses. They went above and beyond for students to succeed in the program and create a learning experience which I could use at work which was very helpful.
