UTA Spring 2012

Yea about 2.5 to almost 3 years actually depending on the program. UT Southwestern's PA program is 31 months and UNT Health Science Center's program is 34 months. The only thing I'm missing for UT Southwestern is Organic Chemistry lab and I just registered to take it! Yikes!

Girl...like I don't have enough on my plate! Now you've intrigued me! Oh, lawd...will this ever end?! Ha Ha!

@ adrialeigh

Thanks for the info! I need to sit and meditate on this. For those of you who are interested in attaining a NP license (including myself): Are you aware that a DNP will be required to receive prescriptive authority and become certified? This goes into effect in 2015.

Did you guys get your confirmation emails for traditional? I just got mine today!

Has anyone heard the final count for applicants yet...just wondering??!!

@ alinino

Yup! Received mine as well! Hallelujah!

@ tejas03

I asked my advisor that question on yesterday. She said it'll be a minute because they are still counting! Since I'm impatient, I contacted someone from the traditional program (ya'll know how this site is about names!). I was informed that there were a total of 600 applicants for the traditional, but I couldn't get any info for the AP. Uggh! However, this person did remember my name! Maybe it's because I faxed my apps like 4 times...just to make sure that they got it! hee hee

@ mochahild

i would have done the same. fax a gazillion times. I took mine in person. And then i was paranoid that i forgot something or left something blank on the application even though i had like 10 poeple check over it.

@McKinney Mom

Hi my name is amber. i am trying to do the lvn-bsn through academic partnerships at uta and lamar college. I am trying to decide if i should wait until i can go to school and take it or if i could handle it online. the teacher i am signed up with is *******. i guess she is the only micro teacher at uta. everyone has said she is very difficult but that was from traditional students. Could you tell me more about your experience and the difficulty level of the course?

My micro question could apply to anyone willing to answer it :) i just saw mckinney mom speaking about it earlier in the db. Thanks all!

Yikes...I'm terribly worried now after reading this because I'm set to start Micro on the 20th. What do you think could be done differently to help the class go more smoothly? What was the class structure like?

i am set to start on the 20th too! keep in touch and we can give eachother tips and support eachother getting through it. i decided to go ahead and take it i know if i put my mind to it i can do it. i have 4.0 and uta actually took my micro from another college. but lamar..the other college with the academic partnership, did not accept it so now i have to retake it! sucks thats 450 bucks out the window but the lamar lvn-rn is pretty much garunteed acceptance so it will be worth it to just get it out of the way. just be weary.. i went to rate your proffessor website and they tore her up! i guess she is very tricky and tries to catch you up on the little things. but with this being an online format i dnot know if she will be able to do the same things.... fingers crossed.. there is no other time to take the course online for the rest of the year...i have been searching everywhere trying to find an alternative and there is none....
