Published

Hey everyone,

I recently applied to the FNP Academic Partnership Program at UTA for the June 30th session. Who else applied for this session and have you heard anything back? I am re-posting this because i didn't get any reponse the last time i posted it.

Thanks.

Oh believe me, I have some too! 2 classes at a time will be daunting while working full time ( I don't have the option of either going PT or not working...). So I am going to have to buckle down and just do it!

Just looked at the degree plan...UTA now has a 1 class at a time plan as well as a 2 class at a time plan!!!!

A friend of mine in the program said she bought the book "clinical pathophysiology made incredibly simple" for patho and she said the book was extremely helpful...I just ordered it on amazon...

My main concern is the money and how incredibly late they gave admissions. I wanted to drop down to working 3/12 at work but with class starting soon and final work schedule posted, I dont think my boss will let me. My second concern is if I can one class at a time, will I have to cough up $1970 every 5wks?

I guess it's better than twice that much every 5 weeks... I am going to have to take out loans to subsidize the expense...and add in tuition reimbursement to help a bit too...this is one of the least expensive programs from reputable schools that I found...it's going to be tough, but totally worth it...I WANT THAT DAMN FUNNY HOOD!!!

I know the notification was a bit late, but considering the deadline for all supporting docs was just a week and a half ago, this wasn't a bad turn around. A few of the other programs I was looking into we're taking apps for August of next year, so I was ecstatic that they had a deadline to start so soon, some others were accepting for January, but I really wanted to start as soon as possible, and now I get to start in a couple of weeks...I've been saving money since April just in case so that I could fund the first class then let loans and reimbursement take over from there...I totally beside myself with excitement...

Hahahaha.. I want the funny hood too! just spoke with someone over in their camp and they said I could switch to the on-campus track. I'm kinda digging that because 1. they will now find you a preceptor, 2. there won't be a rush to pay $1970 every 5 weeks. I am seriosuly weighting my options with UTA and TWU!

Congrats swilson and obtxrn, I will decline my acceptance to UTA and stay with Chamberlain, I believe one class every 8 weeks would work for me and still enjoy my kids and still work full times until clinical start. Good Luck!
