Help! Any self-paced or online Anatomy & Physiology courses starting soon?!

Published

Hi Everyone,

My name is Joanna and this is my first post on this forum. I'm looking forward to applying to accelerated nursing programs for Spring 2011, but first I've got a couple of prereqs to finish up--the biggest one being Anatomy and Physiology. I'd like to get started on it soon, because I'm running out of time--August is my deadline! I'm currently living abroad, so the course I take needs to be online or correspondence, but I'm having a really hard time finding anything affordable. Any help or suggestions? I'm a Texas permanent resident. Thanks!

Check with Ocean County Community College. Their spring term starts this week. However, this is not a cheap school. Out of state residents pay about $1000 per course. http://www.ocean.edu

Also check out Northern Virginia Community A&P I on 2/1 and they have an A&P2 starting on 3/1. I don't know out of state, but in state was around $400. They allow you to do an 8 week class, a 12 week class or a 16 week class.

You do have to have a proctor for your 8 tests, so you might want to think about that.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Just a side note - check to make sure the nursing programs you'll be applying to don't require a lab component...many schools won't accept online A&P classes. Something to keep in mind. Good luck!

I agree make sure you will not need a lab, all the nursing schools I have looked into require a lab with my A&P.
