Any Excelsior ADN Grads going to UT Austin?

Published

Specializes in MedSurg.

I'm an LVN who has been debating for a bit whether or not to go through Excelsior to get my ADN with my ultimate goal being to enter UT Austin for their ADN to BSN program.

I've looked at all the pros and cons of going to Excelsior and have decided to go soon.

I've used the list of required prereqs for UT Austin as a guide, and I believe completing these prereqs at my local college will cover the required prereqs for Excelsior in the process.

With this said, here is the list I found on UTA's website of required prereqs and I have 2 questions:

(Courses and Credit Hours)

Chemistry - 3 (Not yet taken)

Biology - 3 (Will Intro to A&P count for this??)

Nutrition - 3 (I have no clue...what classes can I do for this??)

Microbiology - 3 (Not yet taken)

Pharmacology - 3 (Should be waivable)

Anatomy & Physiology - 8 (Starting A&P 1 this semester, A&P 2 next semester)

English Comp I - 3 (Completed)

English Literature - 3 (Not yet taken)

Government - 6 (Starting U.S. and Texas both this semester)

US History - 6 (Not yet taken)

Psychology - 3 (Completed)

Growth & Development - 3 (Starting this semester)

Statistics - 3 (Not yet taken)

Visual & Performing Arts - 3 (Not yet taken)

So that's my list. If anyone can answer those 2 questions, and/or give any advice or tips for the road I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!
