This may be a far fetched thread but I am planning on applying next fall (or second half of year June 2nd-Dec 31st) for the Fall 2015 start AP BSN program (also applying on campus just to cover my bases). A little jealous that other schools like TWU can apply in the semester before the they are looking to start. Either way I was thinking this thread could help those who are needing to know the process and others who have info from advisors that could share with the rest of us. So here are my questions:
A. I have not taken HESI yet but UTA's does not require sciences from what I have found online and been told by others. Any tips on preparing for this? Which prereqs would you recommend having done prior to testing?
*B. Transferring outside pre-nursing requisites Intro to Nursing, Patho and Pharm. I got info from an advisor that I must fax a "portfolio" including an official transcript, copies of catalog description of course from college, and copy of syllabi for each course. Has anyone else done this and is this done AFTER courses are completed and appear on transcript? Or before the classes are taken? I am considering Brookhaven for these. Is it possible these NOT be approved? Did anyone stack these courses Intro and Pharm same semester or Patho and pharm?
C. UTA upper division elective. Medical Terminology is what is accepted for UTA AP BSN program. How have others taken the course? Such as online, over summer, flex term?
*As you can see B is my biggest concern.
If there is anything else someone would like to add please feel free. I want this thread to help make the application process as smooth as possible for others as well.
Thank you!
If anyone is on Facebook, there is a group called UTA Nursing School Info Group. You will have to click to request membership but it only took a couple minutes until I got the notice I was added as a member by the group. Elizabeth Webb, Admin for Online program, has been answering specific and general questions from students accepted and on waitlist. Maybe post a comment directly to her and see is she can help find out the status of this info for you. I know she said they are like 2 weeks behind on everything which is delaying info to those accepted as well as waitlist calls being started.

one consideration. I hope they start making calls. I was accepted to a LVN/RN transition program that starts may 31... I hope to hear before then. Stressful.
