Spring 2019 Lone Star Hopefuls

Nursing Students School Programs

Nurses Month 2024 | Discounts & Freebies AORN Celebrates Nurses Month

I've decided to make this page for anyone applying for the Spring 2019 ADN program at Lone Star CF/K. I'm so nervous and it's still kinda far away! Good luck!

I do have transfer credits from another school but for the last 2 years I attended lone star cy-fair and most of my credits are from there.

If ENGL 1301 or BIOL 2401-2402 was a transfer credit, then you will have to call the director of the nursing department. Someone else had this issue a couple weeks ago.

Thank your for your help and I think I figured it out. I don't know how I missed this but I haven't taken pharmacology and for some reason it completely passed by me that it was a require pre req. Ive been applying to so many schools and I think lone star is the only one that requires pharm as a prereq. Its kinda odd considering its a nursing course and almost every school that I have applied to, you'll take it once accepted. Well now I won't be able to apply to the spring 19 session since the deadline is next month. I guess Im out for spring.

Pharmacology is not required to apply to lonestar

are you sure? this was taken from their site "Biology and pharmacology courses submitted for program credit must be completed no more than five (5) years prior to application to the nursing program. See Biology Refresher Course. All transfer Biology courses for the nursing programs must be minimally 4 credit hours and the Pharmacology must be a nursing Pharmacology course of at least 3 credit hours."

it is #5 on their list of criteria for Basic Track. It is also listed as a pre req on their basic track integrated program cost list.

thats the only reason I could think of as of why I don't see the application tab when I log in to apply. I took micro and a&p1 and 2 at cy-fair. Either way I am going to call tomorrow and find out for sure. Thank you so much for your help and your replies btw. & best of luck to us!

Pharm is not a required pre req....it's not on the score sheet either. My friend applied for fall 2018 and got accepted without having pharm credi at the time. I took pharm with her over the summer so I know this from personal experience. I would definitely call the lone star nursing department director and ask them. That would suck to not be able to apply this semester and I know for a fact that you not having pharm is not the reason.

do you need to get permission to apply for pharm before nursing school, cause i want to do it in the fall, and are there online classes?

They list pharm as a "recommended" prerequisite.

Also, what you're referring to just means that if you have taken one of those courses and they're more than 5 years old at the time of application submission, then you have to retake it. So like if I took BIOL or Pharm in 2013, I wouldn't be able to apply until I retook those courses.

Yes email the department contact- Valerie. I did and she registered me for an online Fall class.
