Hi, how's it going?
I am planning to apply for UTA nursing program in spring 2011.
Before that, I need to take three prerequisite courses required to take only in UTA in fall 2010.
When is the deadline to apply for UTA to complete three prerequisite courses in fall 2010?
When I sent them email, they answered me that the deadline to apply for nursing program in spring 2011 is June 1st.
Even though I am not starting nursing program in fall 2010 and just starting to take three prerequisites in fall 2010, do I still need to keep the deadline which is Jan 5?
Also, do I need to turn in the HESI score when I apply for UTA to take three prerequisites?
Thank you.

Hello Pinktree,
the deadline for the hesi & your nursing application is June 1...here is a link to look at it will give you more information http://www.uta.edu/nursing/BSN/admit.php
and no you do not need to turn in your hesi score when you take the 3 req pre reqs. When you sign up to take the HESI ( I took mine at UTA) it will automatically be submitted to UTA , if you take your HESI at UTA....I took my hesi May 30 and the application for nursing was due June 1
Thank you, misspink 86!
So, it means I can just get accepted by UTA to take 3 pre-requisites not by nursing program, right?
your welcome!
and yes you just need to be accepted by UTA not the nursing program to take the 3 pre reqs. Most likely you will need your advisor to clear you bc when you register for the classes you need a code bc its an upper level class.....and let me give you some advice about Pharm....take it online! I wish I would have, I know the online class fills up very quick. As far as patho the teachers notes are very detailed! so read the blueprint ( its like a test review) and then follow your notes. Intro to nursing is very easy. So when you take the 3 pre reqs make a schedule on how much time you will spend on each class :)
If you have anymore questions please feel free to ask! Also try to keep your GPA over a 3.5, I had a friend who had a 3.5 and she was a transfer like myself and she didnt get in. My science GPA was a 4.0 & pre req was around 3.7 & Good luck!
Oh my goodness!!!!
You are really kind :)
You are still in nursing program?
I have two last questions.
Should I apply to UTA as a pre-nursing student or apply directly to the school of nursing using the upper division application? I only found the application form which is for upper division of nursing.
Also, in my case, the deadline for the application is going to be the same date as general transfer students' which is June 1.
I am going to meet the advisor next week (probably on Monday).
Actually I was just accepted into the program at the end of Oct. It will be my first semester as a nursing student in Jan :)
You would need to apply as a pre nursing student to UTA and then submit a separate application to the nursing school (you can pick one up, when you meet with your advisor, take a couple of nursing applications...I remember I messed up on my application and I had to redo it about 3 times ha ha) and once you are accepted into the program you will be an official nursing student. Turn in your nursing application about 2 weeks ahead of the deadline and take a copy of your transcripts with you...also meet with your advisor before you turn it in so they can make sure everything is okay, Justin is a great advisor he gets right to the point.
*Also apply as soon as you can to the university that way if they loose your transcripts you will have ample time to get it to them again.... the acceptance letter from the university takes about 6 weeks.
But as far as the acceptance letter from the SON (school of nursing) I applied June 1 and received my acceptance letter around the 28th of October you might find out in the beginning of OCT instead of the end bc the nursing school decided this year to get rid of the interviews!

misspink, I stumbled up on your posts from the uta spring 2010 thread and then this one and thought you could really help me and fill me in! I'm applying for sping 2011 nursing school for UTA. I think I saw you say something about you wished you had taken pharm online?
thanks!
