I am still waiting to hear something and its been months of a run around..i so hope UTA is worth it..

Have you called? I would call. At first i was getting nervous because they didnt call or email me, so i called them to see what was up with my application and transcript. They sent me something within that same week.

I just finished 3465A I felt it was quite easy. I didn't have to take the tech writing course so I can't comment on that course.

Good luck.

Definitely call and call and call...I had lots of issues because I was a student there for one semester 20+ yrs ago and my stuff got lost in the shuffle. It was worth the wait but I wish I had been a little more diligent.

Thank you both. I added the UTA email address to my iphone and have been checking it everyday.

Did either of you have any issues with them not accepting classes?

I also was fortunate and only had to take math stats in addition to the nursing classes.

What books did you need for that 3465A?

I agree! I'm experiencing that same "I don't give a D*#N" Attitude from my Academic Advisor. She's always so unavailable and never answers/returns my calls (she may respond every now and then to an email). She is not encouraging AT ALL to be an advisor. It has caused me to postpone starting the program several times because I feel I wont get the support and "Advice" I undoubtedly will need throughout the program. What keeps be interested is the price! It's very difficult to find a program that has a set price for the combined nursing portion of the program. I plan to actually start this month with 1 class and see how it goes then maybe pick up more next session. I'll also look into taking some of my needed general classes at a CC to cut down on the costs because I see that's where UTA is getting folks.

I am also going to be starting Art next week, hopefully it will not be too bad. I am taking the Assessment class right now so I will be doubling up next week. You will be very busy in Feb with three classes at once! I think it is manageble, but busy.

Ive started my second semester in the RN-BSN program. My first sem was Texas govt and Technical Writing. This semester, I have Professional nursing A and B, Algebra, and Federal govt. 3 classes is manageable. I also work 3 12.5 hour dayshifts in the ICU. I do not have kids and I have social life.

I am planning on tripling up my classes as much as I can. I only have History and Psych left for pre-reqs as well as my nursing classes. I have my CCRN certification, so I won't have to take a nursing elective course.

Has anyone completed this RN-BSN program in 8-9 months?

I started Oct 2011 for a stats class and then Nov 2011 start for Prof nursing A. I figure I will be finished end of July 2012. I'm taking a double for the this 5 week and the following 2. I'm fortunate to only have needed the nursing classes plus one stats class. So, it will take me approx 8-9 months.
