Campus Tours

 

Due to COVID-19, UTHealth is proactively expanding its restrictions and implementing new guidelines to safeguard our students, trainees, faculty, staff, and patients. As such, campus tours have been suspended until further notice. We encourage all students interested in seeing the campus to view the above video tour. 

Come visit the School of Nursing and let us take you on a guided tour. The campus tours are led by member of the Students Today, Alumni Tomorrow (STAT) Team. STAT Team members are current students who will take you on a walking tour around the school and share their experiences as UTHealth nursing students. 

Tour times are limited to the dates and time our students are available. To ensure a pleasant tour experience group sizes are limited and an RSVP is required. Due to the limited staff, unscheduled/drop-in tours cannot be accommodated. Security protocols restrict any visitors from conducting self-guided tours.

Registration

An RSVP submitted at least two weeks in advance of your requested date is appreciated.
