I'm currently in the program now.... I don't have many electives to take since I have a prior Bachelors' degree. To try to save time, I am wondering how difficult it might be to double up on two nursing classes like Management and Health Policy? Between Health Policy, Nursing Leadership-Management, Health Asssessment, Holisitc care of Older Adults and Healthy Lifestyles - any two that would be okay to take together? Appreciate feedback on this. Thanks!! I would plan to take Research, Vulnerable Pop and Capstone alone, of course.

I am planning to apply to the program. I completed an ADN RN program at a public university in Texas and am looking to apply to the RN-BSN program at UT Arlington. I believe any of the public universities in Texas require History of Texas Government as a requirement for any degree plan. Weird, I know. I completed a Bachelor's in another state and found it unusual. Having done so many courses between my previous Bachelor's from out of state and the ADN degree, I'm curious what courses will transfer over. I JUST spoke with an enrollment adviser and here is what I learned: - Until I apply, I won't know what credits will transfer over and what won't. So I may still need to take an additional class outside the BSN program. But if I need to take another math class or English, I could take it at a community college or take CLEP and test out and save time & $$ that way. (that's my thinking). - Multiple start dates, seems like 1/month. - The $75 application fee is good for a year. So if I apply now, and find I need to take more prereqs or can't start right away. I can defer the UTA start date. - Most students take 1 or 2 classes at a time and classes are 5 weeks long except the last capstone class which is 7 weeks long. There are 10 classes total in the BSN portion. I had a pretty good and frank discussion with the enrollment adviser. There are assignments every week. You can expect discussion board topics, tests papers etc. I think there are other resources like teaching advisors, outside the professor teaching the class. She also mentioned they work with people applying from programs all over, including California. Hope some of this info helps... And I hope there is a UTA grad here who can share with us there experience. ?

Hope you don't mind, but I got one for myself too. :) I have been looking for a planner like this. I also got one for my niece as a graduation present.

Hello everyone! I've also been checking in on this thread too, but never commented. I also got into the gall program. I look forward to meeting you all! Congrats to everyone who made it & to those who didn't - don't give up!!

Hey guys. Congratulations to everyone who got into the Fall 2015 ADN program! I am working on finishing my prerequisites for the program and hope to apply in January for the Fall 2016 program. I am just curious about when the RN courses are offered. I know they are all held at the Central Park Campus but just wondering if they are all offered during the daytime or if there are night class options, etc? I am trying to think ahead as far as work options in the case that I get in (hopefully). Thanks in advance for any insight!
