Hello all,
I am thinking of taking a graduate-level pharmacology or advanced pathophysiology course this summer in preparation for applying to CRNA school in the future. I've looked through the forums here and have used Google to find an online course to take but haven't had much luck.
Can anyone suggest a specific university that offers these courses distance learning?
Thanks,
Kris

Have you checked out Indiana Wesleyan University? An associate of mine is taking an online graduate level pharmpatho course this semester. The University of Illinois is beginning a global online series of courses and nursing is one but I am not certain if they will have a course at this time like the one you need.
Good luck,

I'm currently at Northern Illinois University, and they offer both classes online. I think pharm is going to be online in the fall, and then patho-phys will be in the spring (they alternate online and in-person). You can take classes as a student-at-large without being accepted into the program. Hope that helps!

You should check out Liberty University in Virginia they have an online Acute Care MSN program and this program offers Pathophys and Pharmacology. I have actually taken the Pathophys and it wasn't bad neither was the tuition. Good luck.

Wow, your looking for an online pathophys...can you please tell me why? I am scheduled to start my FNP program at Texas A&M this Aug. and all they offer is online for that class and i am TERRIFIED to say the least. When I got my BSN i had to take advanced A&P it was the most difficult class I had to take while in the program, i couldnt fathom taking online! Has anyone taken advance pathophys online and if so, how was it? THX

MarissamlsRN: I am taking pharm online at UofM and I love it, great low key class for the summer. Patho, I took in class and dreaded every min, the teacher was dull and I learned more on my own. I have nurse friends who have taken patho online and got an A. Its doable and wish I went that route too.
Thank you

I have a question for those who have taken the online adc. pharm course online or online patho course. I saw someone took this course at the UofM? How do able was this. Were the exams tough and did a lot of work have to be put into this.
I am thinking of taking the Adv patho and Pharm online at UofM. I am going to take these while in CRNA school. For those who have taken this, how are these classes and were the exams really hard? Did these classes take up a lot of your time. Thank you
Sorry guys one more question. I am also looking into Liberty University Online. Anyone have any experience with Adv Patho and Pharm through this online school? Any info greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
I am taking Adv. Pharm onLine at UofM. So far Im loving it, well its been an experience none the less, being my first online class. Well if you have further questions..off the record. PM me. I have three more weeks of the class and it went very fast. Where did the summer go?
Hi ucan2ccrn! I am trying to figure out how to PM you but no luck so far. So i will be taking this class next summer while in my crna program. It's gonna be rough. What can you tell me about this class? How demanding is it? What does it consist of, research papers, tests, online tests, discussion boards? I am also thinking of taking the online patho there at UofM. Do you know how that class is or know anyone who has taken that? Thanks a lot!
