Anyone have any information about the RN-BSN programs offered at Texas Tech and West Texas A&M? Anyone a student there or know anyone in those programs?

I have worked with several nurses who have completed the RN-BSN at WTAMU. One of my friends did it online and didn't ever go to a class room. I gave it some thought but relocated to DFW. I hope to get into TWU CRNA program after I get my BSN.

If you need specific information I could easily put you in contact with some people.

Are you in West TX? I am from the Lubbock area.

I'm actually in Houston. I know the Texas Tech program is only 2 full time semesters. Do you know how long the WTAMU program is? My ultimate goal is CRNA! I haven't completed my ADN yet but I'm just planning ahead of time.

I'm looking into the Texas Tech program too. I'm really interested in Tech because they offer the whole program over the summer. I'm a little leary, but only because I'm the main bread winner of the household and know that I would not be able to work much with that schedule. Let me know what you guys and gals think.

Here's how it looks:

Edit: i can't get the image to load right, but you can find the schedule at the address below:

Summer I & II = 10 weeks!?

I'm not sure it can be done all over the summer.

What I get from the site is that it takes 2 semesters to finish the program and you can start during any semester (spring, summer or fall).

Spring and Fall semesters are 16 weeks long, Summer only 10 weeks.

The 2 different summer sessions listed describe what a student will be taking if he/she is either a 1) student just starting the program in the summer (in their 1st semester), or 2) a student taking his/her 2nd semester in the summer.

That's what I understand. Haven't spoken with anyone about it. Maybe I'm wrong.

I don't know, look at that link I posted and compare the shedules for Summer I&II which is 6 weeks shorter, but the same classes are offered for both schedules. I was told by another person that it could be done over one summer, but they're not associated with the university outside of just being a prospective student. I'll give the university a call and post what I find out.
