UTHSCSA Accelerated BSN starting May 2012

Thanks for the reply.

I am being told to take either General Chem II or Organic I. I didn't see that Organic Chem is required in the prereqs list, just the general chem's. The confusion that is going on is that I have already taken these general Chem I and II classes, I don't see why I am being asked to take them again. Maybe it's the different course numbers? I am going to call them again tomorrow. BTW, yes I have been accepted.

Hi RoxBioTx...were you able to get it all worked out with the nursing school?

UTHSCSA also showed that they required that I take Chem II but I had already taken it before as well. I simply emailed my concern about the issue and in the same day it was taken care of. Just email or call and they'll look it up. For them to say that you could simply take Organic I is ridiculous. : ) The prereq's for that course are Gen Chem I and II so that's impossible. And the Gen Chem's required are the ones for science majors not for the allied sciences which is a BIG difference. On a different note, I was wondering if anyone else's TEAS scores were blocked from the online testing center? I'm in as well so it really doesn't matter all that much but still just wanted to know what I made in the different sections. It appears to be a common problem...

I had that problem with the teas as well. I had to call the testing center to get it fixed.

No it hasn't been resolved yet, it's been a back and forth thing since Dec. and since I don't live in San Antonio it's making this more difficult. I guess I will call and email them again, if not I will drive over there...brightside I can go to a Spurs game afterwards. :)

Has anyone received their school ID or email address yet? I've been checking my email and haven't been sent anything yet. Does anyone know when we're supposed to get them?

Hello all,

I too have been accepted and will be joining the ranks of all you fine people. I just received my student ID a few days ago, but I haven't received any email instructions. I am just working on getting all needed documentation into the office by the deadlines. I'm also looking forward to the list of laptops from which to choose. I think I might try a Mac. Have any of you heard from other students as far as options that are given? I'll see you all there!

Hello everyone!

Don't forget to get your flu shot, although not required I was told by the wellness center we would be prevented from doing clinicals if we do not have the documentation.

Thanks for the heads up!

May is coming up pretty quickly!
