whats your take on the new TUCOM campus in Nevada. Do you have to apply to both campuses or not.

This is a great post for the pre-osteo forum, mapiafi, but to answer your question... both campuses are very nice. You have to apply for them individually and if grated an interview, you will see them for yourself. I am bias for the Nevada campus, but its state of the art facility speaks for itself.

Good luck on the road ahead...

The campus is great, but I do hope the school will expand. This will take money and time. Great progress is on its way, and so many things are going on at Touro University Nevada.

There are apartments down the street from the school. If you are from the Eastern, Midwestern, or Southern part of the United States it may be more or less the same for an apartment. I am used to paying $400-$500.00 per month for a two bedroom, but here in the nicer part of Henderson, you are looking at about $800-$1,000.00 per month for a two bedroom apartment.

Today in Henderson, Nevada the temperature is in the high nineties, low one-hundreds.

I cannot believe all of the amenities surrounding my apartment, and the school. Just down the road is a mall, tons of shopping centers, a movie theatre, etc. And the Airport is about ten minutes away. Two high ways are easily accessable from the school as well.
