I am interested in applying for the FNP fast track through UTA Academic Partnership. Has anyone taken the fast track program and would you recommend?

I called and spoke to someone today bc I am currently in the AP MSN administration program and would like to transfer. The program will be intense! She said you will be taking two accelerated courses at a time...which is like whoa! One accelerated course is a lot for someone that is trying to work and do school, I cannot imagine two. Maybe if I didn't work it would be doable. Unfortunately, I'm reconsidering

I'm wrapping up UTA's AP RN-BSN this semester and am applying to grad schools for the fall. Where did you find an AP Practitioner program for them?? I've just seen the regular FNP/PNP programs listed on their site... I'd rather do the intense version and get it over with. Is there a site somewhere? I don't remember how I got into the AP RN-BSN program exactly.
If you go to the uta academic partnership page and scroll to the bottom, you should be able to click on it. It starts feb 24

How many months to complete the fast track program?
How is this different from their regular FNP program? Do they find you preceptors through the AP route?
No they do not find you preceptors, the difference is the AP is 100% online and the regular program is on campus. Also, the accelerated program can be completed in two years and has 5 and 10 wk courses.
Here's what I got from the lady I spoke with today.
Requirements:
* GPA - 2.8
* GRE - 149 Verbal / 141 Quant / 3.5 Analytical Writing
* No References
* 200-300 Word Essay
* NO CAP FOR NUMBER OF STUDENTS
* You must find your own preceptors - Psych, Peds, Family
Oh and GRE is waived with a 3.0 GPA.
