Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone can guide me because I’m a bit overwhelmed with my situation.

I live in Houston, TX and I’m a DACA recipient. I’m starting nursing school and I was just told I need to provide proof of health insurance by July 31st.

Right now I don’t have any coverage, but my spouse just started a new job and their employer insurance will kick in—but not until about 60 days from now, which is after my deadline.

I’m trying to figure out what my options are in the meantime. I’ve been looking but I’m getting confused about what I actually qualify for as a DACA recipient in Texas.

A few questions I have:

Can DACA recipients in Texas get health insurance through the Marketplace (HealthCare.gov)?

Are short-term health insurance plans actually accepted as proof for nursing school clinical requirements?

Is there any temporary coverage I can get just to meet the school deadline?

Has anyone been in a similar situation and what did you do?

My main goal is just to have valid proof of insurance by July 31st so I don’t lose my spot in the program.

Any advice or experiences would really help. Thank you so much in advance.

I've studied like crazy the last couple of weeks. And not gonna lie, I'm still nervous.

Accumulative score of 92 A&P- 100 Math-100 Grammar-88 Reading-82 Critical thinking- 970

These are the quizlets I used. A&P and math was word for word. Grammar had most of it. Reading was mainly until Voice and the last two (which didn't really show much of the answer on this quizlet). Critical thinking had the majority of it. Not gonna lie I saved reading for last and by the time I got to it I was so hungry and sleepy. Treated myself to Whataburger after I was done lol. Thank you all for the best wishes!! They helped :)

Hey I'm taking my Hesi A2 at hcc for the LVN program. Has anyone taken the test with them? If you have what study guides would you recommended. I kinda struggle with math and A&P, but any guidance would be greatly appreciated 🥹
