Question about Pre Reqs..GA

debbieGa · May 6, 2006

The only way to be 100% sure is the ask the college that you will be transfering them to. I took a lot of my classess at a community college and they all transfered to Valdosta State University with no problems.

I know courses from a community college usually transfer..Im speaking about a technical college if it is accrediated also

You in VSU's Nursing program? I looked into it..

No I ended up going the ADN route. There is a branch of VSU in our town and my plan was to get my ADN and then do my RN to BSN through VSU, but they closed the RN to BSN part due to lack of Participation so I am now trying to find an online program. VSU states they are going to be starting a online RN to BSN soon but they do not have a date yet. Sorry but I do not know about a tech college being able to transfer.

Thjanks for your reply..

I think Darton college in Albany is starting an online nursing program

GA Southern may have an online program also...

What school you went to for the ADN route? I hear VSU is supposed to have an accelerated program for the BSN

I took A&P I and II at Gwinnett Tech and they transferred (BIO193 &194). You may want to call the school you hope to attend to make sure they will accept credits from a particular tech school. BTW- It was very well taught. I learned a ton!

Yes, check with the school to be 100% sure. I'm taking science pre-req's at a state universisty, however, some of my classmates are taking science pre-req's at the nearby technical college (Micro, A&P I, II).

Ditto - I can't tell you how many horror stories w/scheduling and such that I've heard because people assumed a class would transfer over. That phone call will save you so much trouble...

You should be able to check the Registrar's webpage to see which classes transfer.

I took my science's at a technical college as a transient. I had the absolute BEST professors. My Chemistry instructor is my all time favorite teacher. I learned so much from him.

I loved the fact that they were on the quarter system. I was able to do twice as many classes in the same amount of time. I took my other classes at the university at the same time.

I went to Coastal Georgia Community College. I have looked into GA Southern's Online program. What is good about them is that they will accept my pre-req for valdosta's RN to BSN and I would not have to any more.
