Statistics outside OU?

Published

Anyone know of any short classes outside OU that do NOT require algebra to take it? OU told me I could take stats concurrently with Evidence, but apparentely that is not true. But due to not being able to get into Student Center to register until yesterday, then it telling me I couldn't for requisites not met, and the nursing office not responding to my email, stats is now full, and I am screwed. This will push my graduation date back months, and cause me to miss the start of the once a year start NP program I am applying to.

Issue with that is, since I live in NY, there are no "approved" psych NP programs I can take besides this one, unless I do DNP and pay more than double an hour. So some how, I need to figure out how to be done by May.

So any ideas? Sorry for the vent, I am really upset with this school right now.

Call your advisor! Tell them the problem and ask them to clarify. When I registered for stats (or tried to) it wouldn't let me register because of prerequisite classes not met. There were no perquisites, just a glitch that my advisor had to override. If you can't get your advisor by email call her or the nursing office. Ask them for the email of someone who will respond today! Good luck!

The nursing office said they would register me, at that time there were spaces open. But I'm not in it, and then after that I heard it can't be concurrent with Evidence. Research was allowed to be, and this is that combined class. Hopefully they respond and let me know for sure in the morning. Otherwise I will try and call. If it can't be done concurrently, I'm SOL. If it can be, then they will have to over ride me into the class.

Simply, that just sucks. I understand why you are upset. From what I know, there are no pre req for stats. and Evidence can be taken concurrently with stats. Unless they've changed something in the last few weeks, you should have been able to register for it together.

I agree that you should call and see if they can do an override and get you in. It wasn't your fault that they didn't have classes posted sooner so that you could register. I hope you can get in. Goodluck!

I will be raising He$$ if this doesn't get straightened out. I would have had this all fixed earlier, but even once classes were up, I couldn't even access the student center.

OU doesn't require algbera, but most other places do.

I had a h3ll of a time registering for the class. My advisor had to register me - and she registered me for the wrong class. Said I had not met prereq's - which I had. OU had even accepted my stats credits from a previous class - I just needed to repeat for grad school. Finally got it all straightened out and just finished up stats. They should let you in - write the Dean if you have continued roadblocks. The squeaky wheel ....

I just checked the Spring 2013 offerings. Looks like all STATS classes have expanded and are now OPEN!! Hope you see this and are able to register for the one you need!

I have never been able to get into it on my own, but I got an email this morning from the nursing department they were enrolling me in it and should be on my class list by end of day today. I'm still not showing as being in it, but she said they sent a permission slip for me to be enrolled. So I'm guessing they are allowing me in regardless, since it's a glitch.

They also didn't say anything about not taking the 2 classes together, just to email them back when stats showed for me, and they would enroll me. That stats needs to show to enroll me in the other courses.

Thanks for letting me know though!!

Yippee! I had issues with enrolling in stats and had to go through my advisor. They told me I would be enrolled and it didn't show up for several days afterward. If they said you are in I would relax a little. Good luck!
