  1. UTA.... Comments ??? Pros & cons?

    There aren't clinicals per se. For some courses, you will be required to do things like shadow a BSN/MSN at work, perform and document a physical assessment on someone of your choice, interview an...
  2. More than one nursing class

    The assessment class is just a bunch of rote writing. Busywork, but not hard. Health Promotion is pretty easy. You keep a weekly journal, summarize a short book, and do a couple simple assignments....
  3. More than one nursing class

    I didn't, but a coworker did. She said she was wanted to get done as quickly as possible, as that's exactly what she did. Another coworker did and got so overloaded that she stopped going. It's been...
  4. UTA ONLINE FNP APRIL 7th Start

    ldawn79, sorry to hear about the overwhelming feeling. That's what I'm worried about since they require you to take 2 courses at a time. Did they give you a course map for the program? I think it...
  5. Applying for graduation

    I had to wait forever, it seemed, to graduate and get my diploma. Finished in August, didn't graduate until December, and didn't get diploma until late February.
  6. UTA ONLINE FNP APRIL 7th Start

    I hope y'all give some feedback on the program once you're in. I've looked all over and haven't seen anything from the group that started in February. I applied for the May start
  7. It seems to vary. For me, it was very quick as in less than a week. Others have reported it took months. I have no idea
  8. Failed first nursing course at UTA

    When you submit a paper, you can see instantly that it was received. Whenever I submitted anything, I always clicked on it afterwards and downloaded it to make sure it submitted properly. Only once...
  9. HIST 1312 - I recommend not to take it at UTA. Take it anywhere else. It is terrible. Without direct patient contact, I'm not sure how you are going to do NURS-EL 3300. That class consists of...
  10. UTA online FNP ! Yay!

    There was a college fair at a local hospital this week and I spoke to the lady at the UTA table. She was very familiar with the online FNP program. Said they accepted about 40 students for the...
  11. I took the CPNE in 2005 and your experience is very similar to how mine went. As I read through your story, I could feel myself in your shoes. I know this was 6 months ago, but congratulations...
  12. According to my ApplyTexas application, it starts Summer 2014. There isn't a lot of information available about this yet it seems. I got the email and it said 24 months, 51 credit hours, and about...
  13. I just got an email that UTA now offers the MSN FNP 100%
  14. Hi nursejessica, I got my ADN from Excelsior back in 2005. All my courses were accepted, however they initially gave me conflicting information about my sciences. Excelsior has 3 credit hours sciences...
  15. I took all those classes at UTA. The two POLS are easy. PSYC 3310 was each. Art appreciation (the fine arts class I took) was OK except it required mandatory group work. The people I was assigned...
  16. Which class to drop?

    As I recall, I worked ahead in the government classes. I don't think you have to log on at a specific time for
  17. College Algebra 08/19

    The test proctoring is terrible. I understand why they did it, but still. Ouch. I'd probably look at local community colleges for an
  18. +1 on this class being the worst. Poorly designed and poorly taught. The biggest issue is that you will be assigned to a group against your will. Perhaps the stars will align and you'll be in a...
  19. Which class to drop?

    Stats is by far the more involved course. I am great at math and ended up passing the course with a 98 or 99, and if I were in your shoes I would still drop stats. You don't have the time to devote...
  20. CAPSTONE Project Guidance

    I just took this class last month. My capstone project: Slide 1: Title slide Slides 2-11: Content slides Slides 12-15: References (I forget how many were required, but I had 11 which was more than...
  21. Just Finished RN-BSN Program

    Don't overload yourself in the beginning. It's easy to bite off more than you can chew and then stop completely. I've seen it
  22. Nursing Job Interview Stories

    I had a panel interview with 4 people asking me typical interview questions. What I find most interesting about the whole thing is that all four people on that interview panel were gone a year later....
  23. Your academic adviser is who you need to
  24. For my ADN, I took 3 credit hour A&P I, A&P II, and Microbiology. That means no lab component. When I applied at UTA, they told me they would take my total of 6 hours of A&P I and II and...
  25. Diploma RN asking whats a good online BSN course??

    I just finished UTA's RN-BSN online. The cost of the courses are about $10K, but that's not including prereqs. If you're missing prereqs, 3 hours ones are $504 and 4 hour ones are $672 each. Plus...
