Galen College of Nursing-Houston

What are the popular events and traditions at Galen College of Nursing-Houston?

Nursing milestones, particularly graduation and pinning ceremonies, are more relevant to Galen students than traditional university events such as homecoming. A pinning ceremony, where held, recognizes completion of a nursing program; it is separate from receiving a license to practice.

Event schedules and participation arrangements can vary by campus and graduating cohort. Houston students should check the current academic and student-events calendar for ceremony dates and any other campus activities rather than assume that events advertised for another Galen location take place locally.

What are the student housing and dining options at Galen College of Nursing-Houston?

Galen College of Nursing-Houston does not provide college-owned or college-operated undergraduate housing. Students must make their own living arrangements, and enrollment should not be treated as including a residence-hall place.

Prospective students should budget for housing, food, utilities, and travel in addition to tuition. Before choosing where to live, check the likely commute to both campus and clinical sites; those may require different routes or schedules. Ask the Houston campus about any on-site food options, but do not assume that a university-style dining hall or residential meal plan is available.
