Texas Tech RN-BSN (Spring and Fall 2013)

Lovelymo79 · May 18, 2013

I went to school in NJ. I looked it up. My school is nationally accredited and texas tech is regionally accredited. There are 6 regions. Apparently, regionally accredited schools mainly only take credits from other regionally accredited schools. Rarely from nationally ones. Why? Who knows. So UTA, here I come.

I applied for Spring 2014- :/

rncutegirl- why were you not accepted the first time? or do you know?

How is the program? is it doable for a new RN grad?

Hi RebeccaH13, hope you get in first try! Well, I graduated in December with my Associates and applied right away ( yes, before NCLEX and everything) I summited everything though NursingCas and everything went smoothly until the coordinator for TT called me saying that they couldn't accept my college math from the school I graduated from because it was not Texas Core ..meaning that the ONE and ONLY prereq that I did while in school was the one that did not transfer. I should have taken it at my community college instead because they always transfer but I was accepted into the RN program which included it and, well, of course I accepted the offer! Just in case anyone is wondering, here is a link to compare your institution with Texas Tech (or any other Texas program) to see if it transfers. So...I had to retake it during the summer, applied for the Fall, and got in with contingent to showing proof of completion of that course :) I am a new grad and I just finished my internship at work that lasted about 20 weeks for my first job ever as an RN, and now I am ready for this program! I have read several post regarding how the program works, and seen several moms talk about how they can do it with kids, job and a husband so I am hopeful/positive about the program. Hope this helps!
