UTA Fall 2013

Rhonda K · Jan 17, 2013

I am new to the AllNurses forum. I am currently taking a full load, UT Arlington, plans to apply in June for the Spring 2014 entry. For those of you employed with partner hospitals - what are your positions? Are you CNA's? PCT's? LVN's? Other? And specifically Parkland (that is where I would like to work)? Any info would be appreciated! Thanks!

I guess I will need to be making a second call to them as mine still haven't posted as of today. I've had admissions and my adviser both say it was received.

SOrry guys I really need to check in everyday to see what is going on? I took Pharm online through DCCCD and UTA accepted it. Got an A. Look into it, ask your advisor if they are still accepting it. Took Micro online UTA not too bad, but I was a Biology and Chemistry teacher for 7 years so don't listen to me, all of this stuff is easy NOW. I am completing my preemployment stuff for Medical City, will be working as Customer Representative. Had interview for PCA for Parkland on Jan 7th. I took a CNA class in Lancaster,TX cost was the best only like $580 and it was for about 4 weeks. Passed State Board and now on CNA registry.

I also applied and am enrolled in intro to nursing online! My pre-req GPA is a 3.62 & on the HESI I made a 98% on the math & a 94 overall on the english. I still don't think I have the best of chances at UTA because I applied with a C in lecture for chemistry from over 5 years ago and I am retaking it this semester. I also applied to TCU, Baylor, TWU, & el centro. I am a CNA, but unfortunately not partnered. good luck to everybody!

Joshsmother - did you have to have prior experience? Do you have any certifications? Have you taken classes through UTA or local community colleges, etc.? Are you taking classes right now? And have you already taken all of your prereqs? Any info appreciated!

aggienurse89 - have you taken any other classes at UT Arlington? (do you have any considerations?) Good luck to you - you sound like you are ahead of the process!

Glad to hear you did not think Micro was too bad bc I heard otherwise. It gives me hope. Haha. Thanks.

It sounds like you have just as good of a chance as anyone else, especially if you are retaking Chem. Good luck!

To my intro peeps.... The first week is behind us! All in all not bad... Wanted to kick myself for missing 2 questions on the quiz but I was sooo tired! Missed the question about taking multiple choice test and on the other just marked the wrong this cause I knew the answer. A total duh moment! Anyway... Good luck as we head into week 2 :)

I have a previous bachelor's degree from A&M but that is all. The only class I have taken at UTA is the Intro to nursing that I am enrolled in right now. Thank you for the good luck wishes Rhonda K! Best of luck to you!! Baylor is my first choice, but I'll go anywhere I get in!
