RN to BSN UTA online program

Updated:   Published

Hi Everyone!! I am a new grad ADN who is looking into Online RN to BSN programs. I have been considering the online RN to BSN through UTA. I just wanted to know if everyone is enjoying the program. What are the clinical requirements? I am in California and wanted some info on how smooth the program is etc. So far I have looked into WGU and Cal State San Marcos.

Thanks!!

I too will be graduating in May, 2016! When I was looking into the various online RN-BSN programs, WGU was one of my choices because of its flat rate cost. I decided against WGU because of its lack of a letter grading system. If you decide to obtain a MSN elsewhere, it may limit your choices of universities.

I opted for UTA and have had no regrets. I work full time. I have taken 1-2 classes at a time with some down time between courses. It will take a total of 3 years for me, but it went fast and i have thoroughly enjoyed it. I am currently deciding which MSN program I will do.

Has anyone competed the ADN program at Excelsior College and then went to UTA for their online BSN? I'm concerned about needing to repeat the sciences because they don't have the lab.

Hi leacalifornia, have you thought about the RN-MSN program offered at UTA? I was wondering if you've heard of anyone who started with the RN-BSN program at UTA then while completing it decided to the RN-MSN route? Is it possible to "switch" half way through?

Hello All!!!

I'm starting the online RN-BSN this Fall!!!

How is it so far??

Any advise on Nursing 3345????

I have history 1and 2

Upper nursing elective

And the remaining nursing courses...

I'm in no rush but I've never taken 1 class in 5 weeks. This format will be new for me.

Any advice or input would help.

Thanks

They will not let you switch half way thru. I tried. I was a 4.0 student and still no luck. Got everybody on the phone I could to no avail. You can leave the program for 3 semesters and then re-apply to the RN to MSN program.
