[Mayer,Toysha N]

Thanks for the plug Jay.  
Porscha, 
Under a separate cover I have also sent you some information on our BS HTL program at MD Anderson. We start taking applications in October for next fall.  When will you be moving to Texas?  
Hope to hear from you soon.

PorshaIf I were you I would get an HT or HTL certification from the ASCP and then see what the market is like and also what the state licensure is where you will be located.

> Ok, here's my issue(s).  I currently reside in Georgia & will be graduating in Dec. with an associates degree in medical lab.  My plan was to attend a local college and become a certified histologist.  Here's the kicker, I will be moving to the Spring, Tx area soon after graduation (which was not in my original plan),  but I was wondering if it is best for me to be certified in Ga. or in Tx.  Also, is it best for me to be certified in histology at a school or will on the job training do?  I just need a little direction.  Thanks everyone!

There is no state licensure for histotechs in Texas.  Spring is only 25 miles from Houston, the 4th largest city in the United States, with a world class medical center, including MD Anderson, which runs a histo school.
