Among the many services at
TAMU is a counseling office for stu
dents interested in nursing and who
are taking prerequisite work at
TAMU.
Most TAMU students interested
in a nursing career will transfer to
one of the 11 colleges and univer

program and bachelor’s degree, said
Dr. Gayle Schmidt, Coordinator for

Each school of nursing has
specific entrance and course re

can expect to transfer when an open

Generally, Schmidt said, stu

campus for two years. Most nursing
schools require a minimum of 60
hours before enrollment in their
programs.
Texas colleges and universities of
fering a bachelor s degree in nursing

West Texas State University
nyon and the Baylor University
Nursing School at Dallas. Dallas

Houston and Incarnate Word Col
lege at San Antonio also have degree
programs.
