I have received provisional acceptance into Drexel's accelerated nursing program (ACE) for Fall '04!!! I need to complete some pre-reqs. Now, I can start working on securing some funds, hopefully!

The Drexel ACE Nursing program requires at least a bachelor degree in non-nursing and the following courses in semester hours:

English - 6 hours

Anatomy - 4 hours

Physiology - 4 hours

Microbiology - 4 hours

Chemistry - 6 hours

Sociology - 3 hours

Psychology - 3 hours

Dev/Psychology - 3 hours

Computer Science - 3 hours

Statistics - 3 hours

Ethics - 3 hours

Nutrition - 3 hours

NOTE: Please visit http://www.drexel.edu to look at the requirements in case I have omitted something. I am not reliable for any omissions.

I have a B.S. in Biology and Computer Science and a M. S. in Computer Science. My undergrad degree is over 20 years old, therefore, I am having to take some of the pre-reqs over. Currently, I am taking Human Development. I have to complete HAP I & II, Microbiology, Ethics and Nutrition. So, I will be very busy between January and August to complete these courses.

Congrats Nurse Diva!! Good luck!! :balloons:

Check out the Ethics course at http://www.excelsior.edu. Drexel accepts the course and it is correspondence with a multiple choice test. I studied for 2 weeks, took the test at a Sylvan center, and got an A. It was much easier than a semester long course.

I am so glad you posted this! I was going to have to take it this summer at a community college (from work the drive is an hour)! Thank you :)

I am taking Ethics this semester with ccconline.org! I wished you had posted earlier. The instructor requires a lot of reading and he is very strict on his weekly essays!! Well, I guess I needed to work on my writing because I hate writing!

I am taking this semester online, HAP, Microbiology, Ethics. I like taking the classes online, however, I don't get much sleep over the weekend!! I am preparing myself for the ACE program I guess! During the summer, I will take Nutrition & HAP II.

Thanks for the info about ccconline. I will have to take the Microbiology course assuming that I get in-I am waiting to hear from Drexel and Binghamton University. How is the microbiology going through them? Is ccconline the community college system of Colorado? How long did it take you to hear from Drexel-my final application went in at the start of February.
