UALR Nursing 2021

U.S.A. Arkansas

Published

Hello, 

First Happy New Year to everyone, UALR Nursing application opened today. I created this thread for 2021 applicants, Let us know which program you applied to and any other relevant information. With Covid going on does anyone know if this will delay results? Whats your GPA? Are you applying to Baptist or UAMS as well? In previous forums they were notified in March after or before Spring break. Lets stay connected, I hope everyone is accepted into their selected program of choice.

Does anyone know how long the student to RN program is? Also trying to figure out their grading scale. I've heard 18 months including the Summer, but I can't find the information anywhere. I failed a nursing program a couple years back, my GPA excluding that is a 3.9 and I'm looking into schools and options. | Nevermind I've found it guys. Is the accelerated track more hours of class time? I live two hours away and I'm trying to see if I should move. Also will any portion be online due to Covid? 

It is my understanding that we will finish our associates in nursing next Summer (so 12 months) with the option to complete another 12 months to complete the BSN. We sit for the NCLEX next Summer. I'm also curious about grading sale. In my experience it is usually that anything below 75 is a Fail. 75-84 is C, 85-94 B, and 95-100 A.

At UALR the Student to RN is 24 months, they have an accelerated option that is 18 months that will be offered after the first semester. UALR is Student to RN (AAS) plus another 12-18 months for BSN so for the BSN from UALR it would be anywhere from 2.5 years to 3.5 years.  UAMS is simply 2 years for your BSN. UALR's accelerated program is not longer classes or days, you just go the second Summer when traditional students do not. However, if you are already an LPN or Paramedic you can finish in 12 months. Hope this helps!

I think the accelerated track is one more class given to shorten the length of time in school. I saw the schedule on their website if I find it again I’ll link it. But it’s like three classes one Summer vs the two classes traditional students get. I have a friend that went to a different program and they are still meeting for class. I’m not sure if she was given the option for online.

I believe they usually go out around Spring break, there will be more than one round of acceptance emails.
