@Emily Preston Go to MyMav -> Academic Progress ->UGRD Nursing Degree Plan, click "Select" and you'll see all your completed/transferred courses, your 2 GPAs, considerations, etc. Your total score is there too.

Hey there! I also applied for UTA's Spring 2022. Not partnered; overall score 9.14. I took Patho this Spring semester and enrolled in Pharm for this fall as well ? Anyone else choosing College Station as their preferred location?

Hey TXMSW, I believe this file will answer most of your questions ? https://academicpartnerships.uta.edu/documents/bsn_program_graphic.pdf Short answer would be no, not all of the classes have clinicals and there is a break between terms. As for working full time, I can't speak from experience. I know CONHI discourages it; they say no more than 20 hrs/ week. But I'm sure it also depends on the type of your job and what else you have going on in your life. Best wishes!

Hey Sciencedude1, Thank you so much for taking the time to respond! The specifics you gave me really helped me get a better idea of what this part of the program might look like for me. I wonder if it is because of the pandemic that all of your tests have been remotely proctored via Respondus or if that’s just how the J1 term is. Either way, I hope they keep it this way! LOL Thank you also for the tips. I’m currently a stay-at-home-mom, so thankfully I don’t have to worry about the work factor. Also, this is my second bachelor’s (and my third time in college, because I was in an online MA program before I decided to withdraw and go for a BSN), so I am pretty good at managing my time. It would be my first time, however, doing all this with 2 kids.? This is the main reason why I was trying to figure out what the schedule was like, so I would have an idea how much childcare I would need. Btw, my husband is a teacher and I see how demanding his job is, so trust me, I know one can’t do it working as a teacher and doing an accelerated nursing program at the same time! Wishing you all the best and good luck with the rest of your program!

Hey everyone! I’m trying to find specific (and current) info about the AO BSN program offered at UTA. If anyone is in the program right now, or has just graduated, I would greatly appreciate it if you could respond to any of the following: 1. Upper-div schedule (preferably at the College Station location, but please respond with the schedule for any location): Are clinicals and labs on Saturdays and Sundays most of the time and how often are they during the week? Could somebody just tell me what their schedule looks/looked like as an example? I spoke with an advisor, but they couldn’t give me specifics. They said that, once accepted into the upper division, the schedule would vary by term and that one wouldn’t be able to see it until 30 days prior to starting. I have 2 young kids and my husband works M-F, so I kinda wanted to see an example schedule and have at least some idea long before that about what I could (potentially) expect and how to plan for childcare. I’m currently working on my prereqs and planning to apply to the upper-div program for Spring 2022. 2. Also, the exams during the upper-division program: I was told that depending on the course, some of them would have to be taken at a testing center during the week. Again, if somebody could tell me how many courses required this (as opposed to online proctored exams taken from home); was there a specific “exam day” or does it change from week to week or course to course; and are there specific times the exams are scheduled for (mornings/evenings)? 3. Lastly, for anyone who has taken at least some of their prerequisites at UTA (dynamic sessions), and is currently in the upper division, how would you say the course load and difficulty compare between the lower and the upper division? Just curious. I read elsewhere someone comment that their Chem course alone was harder than their entire J1 term LOL. So, do/did you find some upper-div courses easier than some lower-div ones based on your experience? Thanks in advance!
