UT Arlington Fall 2020 Cohort

Nursing Students Texas (UTA)

Hello Everyone!!

It is finally my time to post to this forum! EXCITING!!! I did not see a thread for Fall 2020 and I might be SUUUUPER early but man that nursing application process takes proper a year doesn't it?

I am done with all my general courses and TEAS except for nursing chem, one elective (health and human disease), Patho, Pharm, and Intro to Nursing. I plan to take CHEM 1451 and HEED 4312 in the Fall 19 semester, apply in January, and then while waiting on that, take Patho and Intro to Nursing in Spring 2020 and Pharm by itself in Summer 2020.

I have an A in Micro, A&P 1, and A&P 2. This has been a LOOOONG journey and I cannot wait to start!

Wait, they will start a summer nursing program?

Yup! When you apply they ask if you want to start in summer 2020. If you completed all the degree requirements (all courses including pre nursing) you can be admitted. Its the first time we offered it ?

The application deadline is the same for Fall, January 15. Anyone who applies but does not meet the criteria will be moved to Fall applicant pool

So if I have Patho & Pharm to take in the spring, can I still apply for the summer? Cuz my plan was to apply for Fall 2020

As far as I know, the same rules apply as a normal application. I would double check with the advisors to make sure.

For those familiar with the curriculum I have a question. Once accepted, are the semesters Fall and Spring only or do they (say I start in a Spring term) run through Summers? And while at it, it seems like there are several things that get you .5 points to add to your score. I would surmise one would be advanced degree but what are the others?

If its campus Fall/Spring, there is no coursework during the summer.

Its accelerated so I am assuming it does go Summers. At least our RN-BSN and MSN AO programs do that,so one may as well.

Yes there’s coursework over summer for the online program. I don’t think there is over winter though.
