UTA Fall 2013

joshsmother · Apr 18, 2013

I also took my sciences at TCC so I could finish them on time. I didn't want to take the biology prereq for microbiology at UTA so I took that at TCC too. I had heard that taking sciences outside of UTA would count against you but that doesn't seem to be the case.

My science are TCC :)

I took chem online at TCC and the lab on campus. I thought it was pretty easy and straightforward. Not a walk in the park a little boring, but totally doable.[/quote']
Thinking about doing that too. Great professor at the campus near Saginaw. Ugh!!! So much to consider and do!!

I got in Both...I'm so excited! Just gotta figure out how to do this and have a baby. O well, GOD will make a way! To anyone that didn't get in, don't give up! When I attended UTA back in 2002, there was no way I would've gotten in with my Science background knowledge and GPA, but hey I'm in now.

That's where I took it. I would totally recommend :)

I have a bachelor of social work from UTA and 30 hours at UTA. 4.0 in science and 3.25 GPA. I wonder if having invested so much at UTA already counted at all in my favor because I have seen people with higher GPAs and one or two considerations get rejected.

It has to be the 2 considerations. I have a 4.0 science GPA and a 3.6 overall with a previous bachelors from UTA and was wait listed for AP. I wish they would take the more than 30 hours I have at UTA but they aren't in the nursing prerequisites. Also not partnered.

Is there anyone that was accepted to both that is not going to accept the AP program?

Trenata · Apr 18, 2013

I would love to know how you all managed a 4.0 science GPA. I made in A in Biology and now I am studying my rear end off to get a B in A&P I. I am taking my 2nd exam tomorrow and lab practical. So I don't know how those will turn out yet (I feel confident, but I felt confident for my first exam as well and only made an 82). It seems that all I do is study, study, study...

Congrats to all who were accepted!!! Good work! For those who didn't, keep on - it will happen! :-)

@TWiersch... I'm about to finish my JR1 semester in the AP BSN program... I will warn you that if you feel that way now, just wait until you get into the AP program... Be prepared to say that all time... "all I do is study, study, study... " I don't think I know what it's like to relax anymore... LOL...

That's my life, with a Full Time job, wife, and kids... Plus I drive from my home to Dallas (2+ hours each way) for my weekend clinicals... But totally worth it.

Congrats to everyone accepted, for those waitlisted, don't lose hope (I was waitlisted)... You can do it!

I just basically gave up sleep and my entire social life. And I took really good notes. :) The labs and lab practicals are much easier than the actual exams...at least they were when I took the class.

Violach · Apr 18, 2013

Oh, wow. Thanks for the info, Don! You really have your hands full. I quit my job to pursue my BSN. Can't imagine doing both.

Congrats!

Thanks Don. I am wait listed for AP and really hope to get a spot (I was accepted on campus). Do you know about how many off the wait list ended up getting a spot?
