Are you looking for state or private?
You're best bet would be to look into UofH (University of Houston), Rice, St. Thomas, or Houston Baptist University. Those are the decent universities that would have grad programs.
Thanks for the advice, it's nice to know someone who's been in my shoes. I'll try to find that book you recommended. I already looked at Baylor, but unfortunately it's too far from where we will be living.
So far I have 3 schools I am seriously considering. Does anyone attend one of these schools or have more "insider" info about them?
- Univ of Houston
- Rice University
- Univ of Texas (Houston)
I'm most interested in the Univ. of Texas because they have multiple graduate options, and the fact that the university has a dental school is a big plus, IMO.
The only thing is all of these masters programs require a thesis of some sort. I worry about this because I'd rather not go into a program that focuses just on research. Maybe such a program doesn't exist 😕
I wish I knew someone in Texas, I just seem to have way too many questions.
Don't forget:
- Univ of Houston
- Rice University
- Univ of Texas (Houston)
.
Well I looked up Texas residency and this is basically what I found, no mention of not being a student for 12 mos, so I don't know where I got that from 😕
Q. How do I establish residency?
A. One must be an independent (not claimed as a dependent for income tax purposes), US citizen or permanent resident, (have a green card, also known as card I-551 or the evidence of I-551 stamp in the passport) or international student who is eligible to establish a domicile in Texas and live in the state of Texas for 12 consecutive months and establish a domicile in Texas prior to enrollment.

Q. How do I establish a domicile in Texas?
A. A domicile in Texas is presumed if, at least 12 months prior to the census date of the semester in which he or she is to enroll, at least one of the following applies: 1) the person owns real property in Texas, 2) the person owns a business in Texas, 3) the person is married to someone who has established a domicile in Texas, 4) the person has had gainful employment other than work-study and other such student employment in Texas.
