Uuniversity of Texas Arlington RN-BSN Online

Nursing Students Texas (UTA)

Published

I am looking at different online schools for RN-BSN program. Just wondering how the nursing clinicals work for online students at University of Texas Arlington. A few other online programs that I am looking at do not require clinicals for online RN-BSN students.

Thanks

Clinicals aren't required because you are already an RN. I believe the Capstone course, the last course of the program, you may need to shadow a nurse manager, but that it all.

Specializes in ICU.

There are a few other, small requirements as well. For one class, I had to interview a home health nurse. For another, I had to very thoroughly assess a person. For another, I had to find an elderly person who was willing to do a "life review" with me.

Not trying to scare you. These requirements were not hard to meet for me. There are no clinicals. Even the shadowing thing was just hanging out with my boss for 4 hours and then writing about it. We went to meetings, ate lunch, etc.
