  1. I'm not sure if you're currently enrolled as an LVN in an RN program and are thinking of continuing on with the RN-BSN at UTA? Or if you're already an RN with LVN experience who hopes that the LVN experience could be used in lieu of an elective? Ke...
  2. Yes, but you'll need to take two nursing courses at a time (at one point I took two nursing courses and an elective for a total of three). To save time, you'll also probably want to use a national nursing certification in place of an elective (which...
  3. Taking Medical Terminology with Prof. Nursing A/B is very doable. There are 3 or 4 (can't remember) 50 question multiple choice tests that comprise your grade. No other assignments besides the tests. The tests basically cover medical definitions.
  4. How many classes?

    This is what they say, but I was able to enroll anyway and nothing ever happened to me. Not endorsing this...just saying I did it without a problem (enrolled in other nursing classes).
  5. How many classes?

    I took Professional Nursing A&B along with Medical Terminology (elective) and Older Adults. Made A's in all of them and didn't stress either. Totally doable.
  6. Finally got my course map!

    Sometimes, if UTA doesn't have an exact equivalent of your course at their instutition, they will simply transfer the course as something generic like "biology transfer," but you will still get credit if your academic advisor approves that course as ...
  7. CAPSTONE class description?

    Discussions (one each week for 6 points (6 pts * 5 weeks = 30% of your grade)) - the discussions are typically very straight forward and minimally time consuming like the other courses in the program. Journal entries (3 points each for 4 weeks = 12% ...
  8. UTA RN to BSN online start October 2012

    Having finished this program, the references to state laws primary deal with things that are either common sense or exist in various forms in other states. Things typically discussed include: -Safe Harbor: you have the right to protect your license ...
  9. Texas state history class pre-req

    As a Texan, I can attest to the fact that we are a little full of ourselves... hence why our government mandated this lovely course that doesn't apply to out of state students.
  10. Confused at UTA

    This flyer: http://www.uta.edu/nursing/files/RNonlineflyer.pdf Gives you a course-by-course breakdown of exactly what you need to complete, including the two electives required, in order to graduate. College algebra can be taken at a local community ...
  11. amyrnfa is correct, you will need something that has the full functionality of a computer. A netbook or ultrabook might prove to be more portable than a traditional laptop. An example of a netbook would be the Acer Aspire One. They are miniature la...
  12. They had no problem accepting PCCN. Keep in mind that PCCN is a relatively new certification, however, it is on the list of approved certs (and the academic advisors aren't nurses, so I don't know why they would say anything about not recognizing it...
  13. Book &/or syllabus for Prof Nursing A & B

    Here's the Syllabus for Professional Nursing A/B. N3645_Syllabus_AP.FALL.11.pdf
  14. How many classes?

    If Tech Writing is full, see if you can't take speech, philosophy, or an additional literature course instead. Your advisor will let you know if any of these courses are available that qualify as a substitute for tech writing.
  15. How many classes?

    LGJMan, Clewi102 is correct, Tech Writing (or equivalent) can be taken concurrently with Professional Nursing A/B. You may have to get your academic advisor to manually register you for this if the online system is prohibiting it. Sometimes the sy...
