Online Anatomy & Physiology?? (accredited!)

Published

I am wondering if anyone knows of any online Anatomy & Physiology courses that include a lab?? IF SO, what kind of lab? Do you have to do dissections in your home? Did you have to have the tests proctored? I was hoping to find a school in Illinois or Wisconsin, but anywhere is great! Thank you!

Florida Keys Community College. Easy but it's 100% busy work. Pointless class. I preferred my hybrid course then 100% online.

Did you take those classes online? How were they?

No, but a nursing school classmate of mine did. He said he never worked so hard on a course in his life! Bear in mind that he had a full-time job, a wife and 2 little kids, too. But he got an "A".

Yes, Massachusetts Institute of Health Professions has all online courses and a section for Science Pre-reqs. You can take (all online) Microbio, Chem, A&P, Stats, Physiology. This is a great school and accredited. The downside is the price... 1500 per course but if you need it for schedule purposes... it could be worth it!

Rio Salado CC (Maricopa CC district) offers t A&P I & II, microbiology online with labs.

I second Rio Salado. I took a non-science course there so I don't know specifics about their A&P, which they do offer, but classes start every Monday so it's super flexible schedule wise. The whole process - registering, taking the class, requesting transcripts - was so convenient and easy.

As someone else mentioned, whatever you choose, make sure that your prospective school(s) will accept the transfer credits!

I took A&P I & II Lecture/Lab at the Community College of Denver in 2005. Each class was worth 4 hours including the lab. I got an A and a B and it wasn't too bad. It might be slightly pricey if you're not a Colorado resident though.

As you can see there are quite a few schools that offer the classes online, but just as a thought check with the nursing program you plan to apply to, to see if they are accepted. The schools in my area do not allow online labs for admission to their programs.

how do you sign up for these classes? I see that some of them say you need a pre req, but how would they know that you have taken that class or not?

I wish I had the balls to go for these classes online...but I just can't bring myself to do it. I feel like I need a classroom setting for the more challenging classes. I'm fine with basic courses online, but when it comes to A&P or anything related, I must be a part of a classroom. I think it's great that there is the option to take these classes online though - it's a huge convenience to those who have no other choice or prefer to take them online! To those doing them online, I wish you the best of luck! :)

In reference to college prerequisites, they request all your transcripts from the colleges and high schools attended which let them know which classes you took. If the prequisites are missing then you have to take them or take their placement test for English, Math, Reading, and Writing.
