Re: RN to BSN online
I actually already have 4 English classes from when I was planning on getting my BSN straight from high school. So, the English requirements for UTA doesn't bother me.

(I actually was accepted into UTA back in 1991, but couldn't come up with the funds.)
I now have finished General Chemistry 1411 with an A, and hoping I won't have to take 1412 or Organic in the future.
Now I need to think about taking Statistics....which I'm not looking forward to! lol
For UTA's RN-BSN, I only have to take Nutrition, Statistics, the second half of History & the second half of Govt. ...Four more classes, and I will be ready to go for my RN-BSN.....after getting my RN.

UT Austin requires a horrid amount of chemistry including organic which I just think is crazy to be required of a BSN degree.
UTMB requires only one semester of any chemistry as long as it includes a lab.
Shop around before enrolling. I looked into UT Arlington when I lived in Dallas but was turned off by the considerably heavy number of prereq's required just to get in. College algebra, speech, 3 English classes (the standard is two and that's plenty of paper writing), no way.
Keep looking.
