"The Masters in Medical Sciences Program at UNTHSC is intended to help prospective medical students bolster their applications to medical school. This program is wonderful in regards to preparing students for medical school, but should not be pursued by anyone looking to get a traditional Masters of Science Degree. Classes are fairly equivalent to a first year medical curriculum, but the courseload is not unmanageable, even if you haven't been exposed to the material previously. The school is in a nice area of Fort Worth and the campus is very safe. Housing close to campus is somewhat expensive, but affordable options can be found less than ten minutes away."

"I am a part of the Pharmacy School at UNTHSC. This graduate program is very competitive along with challenging, interesting, and time-consuming. Where the school is located, which is down town fort worth, has pros and cons in itself. It is right by the cultural district which helps me broaden my cultural diversity. Although, the cost of living near campus is far more than expensive. It takes me a quarter of an hour to drive to school in morning traffic on a major highway."

"TCOM is an excellent program. A medical school that isn't "cut-throat". Although the material can be overwhelming as is expected, we encourage one another to do well. The students and faculty foster a healthy and supportive environment. I am confident that I will not only be a competent physician upon graduating but have compassion for my patients as well!"

"My program matches with my career and goal but I am a little disadvantaged in getting scholarship and on-campus job as most of the available jobs are directed towards US citizens and am an international student."

"The faculty rate as an eleven out of ten at this school. They are incredible, explain things well, and take time outside of class to help you when you need it. The environment is amazingly supportive. It feels like a family."

"I think it needs more networking with universities doing cutting edge neuroscience research in order to promote collaboration and exchange of ideas."

"The biggest pro for this program would be that professors are always willing to see you if you have any questions. Just be courteous and ask if they are too busy to see you. Although they are busy, they always come back to you later. The cons include that there are not many professors who do immunology research, so you don't have many options for your research. Also the department does not have some equipment that can be important for your search, such as irradiator. (However it does have a nice flow cytometry machine.) The school itself is pretty small, so everybody tries to get along with others without a sense of competition. The weekly WIPS (work in progress) presentation gives students some opportunities to see what research effort others have been putting. There are many seminars with free food, so some students take an advantage for it. (WIPS also has free food)"

"The beginning class of Pharmacy will be tough as it will be the first class. The network and support of the faculties and surrounding schools will help tremendously."

"While there are alot of exams and studying, this is a medical school and the amount of work is as expected. With that being said, the school prepares you well for the medical field and there are plenty of extracurricular opportunities to help you along the way. The students are friendly and collaborative and the faculty will be there for you to help your through these stressful times."

"The Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine at the UNT Health Science Center in Fort Worth is a nationally acclaimed school with amazing professors that care about the students learning the information and becoming the best doctors we can be. The staff is supportive in every way: many faculty have an open door policy, the financial aid department will work to find you money to reduce the burden of cost, and the administration is always willing to listen to student recommendations for improving campus or the curriculum."
