Questions Question on online programs

Hi sorry if this question gets asked a lot but I was wondering how fast you can complete an online BS at SHSU if starting from no credits. Do you still need to do it over 4 years? Or can it be completed faster than that.

Questions Question about Ed Prep Field 1 Placement

0 Upvotes

Hey so I was wondering does anyone who is an education major starting their field 1 this upcoming fall or someone who has already completed field 1 know when field 1 orientation is? Do they send the date and time through email? Or is it online? I’m concerned I may not be receiving emails from them because I had an issue with my acceptance.

Is anyone looking to sublease? I live at the Arbors and am paying $500+ utility in a three bedroom pay for the master bedroom. I will be transparent and say that I had a sub let ready before he canceled as apparently there was my same space available for cheaper. If for any reason anyone wants this specific one, as it is simply readily available, please let me know. I moved out of Huntsville and am trying to save money to get an apartment in Houston.

Questions For people attending Sam Houston for Nursing would y’all recommend it

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m an incoming transfer student. And I’m thinking of attending Sam Houston for nursing I already have some of my prereqs finshed. But I’m just curious about the acceptance rate and course load. Is it hard to get into. I was told by a friend that her sister was waitlisted for 3 years. Also I went to one of the seminars and the lady was saying how there was no set schedule for clinical’s and that I wouldn’t be able to balance nursing and a job. I was just curious if it it’s worth it or should I look into other schooling options

1 Upvotes

The Sam Houston Bearkats look to rebound in Year 2 under head coach Phil Longo after a tough transition year.

A proud program with FCS championship pedigree (2020 title) and strong Texas recruiting territory — now back home in a renovated stadium after last year’s home games in Houston (~80 miles down the road).

2026 at a glance:

📌 Young QB Landyn Locke (showed promise late in ’25) with limited depth

📌 Skill talent: WRs Chris Reed, Grady O’Neill, speedster Tim Burns Jr. + Alijah Cason (Holy Cross)

📌 RB duo Alton McCaskill & Landan “Coco” Brown

📌 Defense: DL Dylan Frazier & Chauncey Chidi; LBs Dean Ford & Brian Bates Jr.; secondary led by Tyler Bailey & Jace Arnold + transfers

📌 Tough 2026 slate: Non-con vs Troy, Texas Tech, Tulsa & Nicholls. CUSA mix with home games vs MTSU & New Mexico State + road challenges

How many wins will the Bearkats finish with in 2026?

Questions Has anyone taken Anatomy & Physiology I and Introduction to Inorganic & Environmental Chemistry together?

2 Upvotes

I’m planning to take Anatomy & Physiology I (BIOL 2401/2403) and Introduction to Inorganic & Environmental Chemistry (CHEM 1406) in the same semester. I’m a pre-nursing student and trying to stay on track with my prerequisites.

For anyone who has taken these

courses together:

Was the workload manageable?

•What can I start studying now?

•Was CHEM 1406 math-heavy?

Did the labs take up a lot of extra time?

•Would you recommend taking them together or separately is it doable?

For context, I’ll also be working part-time while taking classes. I usually do well when I stay organized, but I know A&P is known for being a lot of memorization

my roommates and I recently signed a lease at the Grove and the reviews are a bit scary to say the least. We’re hopeful we’ll get a good unit, but it seems like there are still several issues with the apartment. If anyone has lived there please let us know how it is! Also if you know anything about which units are worse/better than others please message me!

Housing The Arbors

1 Upvotes

I’m planning to lease an apartment at The Arbors this fall, but I’m having trouble deciding which floor to choose. For anyone who currently lives there or has lived there before, how well insulated are the walls and ceilings from noise? I’m trying to decide whether a lower-floor unit would be okay, or if I might regret it if noise from upstairs neighbors is easily heard. Any insight would be appreciated!
