Hello everyone,
I'll try to keep this short.
My fiance has been an RN for almost a year and has her BSN from UTMB - Galveston.
She has always tried to talk me into becoming a nurse, but I didn't give it any thought.
I have full-time work as a financial analyst but it isn't what I had hoped it would be.
So, lately, more and more nursing seems like something I want/need to do. However, I don't exactly know where to start.
I have a BBA in Finance with a GPA of 3.3. Not great, but I sort of had school on the back-burner in my first go around.
It looks like in order to get into UTA's program as soon as possible, I will have to take a few prereqs BEFORE the January 15 application deadline. I need:
-Bio for Nurses
-A&P I
-A&P II
-Chem
-Microbiology
So, my questions are:
Does this schedule seem unreasonable while working full-time? I would obviously quit my job upon acceptance to the CON, but not until then.
8/14 - 10/16 Bio for Nurses
8/14 - 12/1 Chem
10/16 - 12/1 A&P I
10/16 - 12/1 Microbiology
Also, do you all have any other advice regarding my situation? I guess by the time I applied to the CON I'd have two additional considerations (12 UTA hours and a degree), but I know nothing of my chances or if having a different background helps... etc. Thanks for any feedback you may have!
