What are your program requirements?

A&P 1 & 2

Pharmacology

Nutrition

Microbiology

Composition 1

Gen. Psychology

Child Growth & Development

Sociology

I hope I will be applying in January. I am taking Pharmacology starting next Thursday, which will be very hard. I am planning to take Child Growth/Development Summer 2 semester and Nutrition and A&P 2 next Fall. If I get a B in Pharmacology, I will be very happy. I will give it everything I have. I will only have 4 weeks. It should be 5, but with the last class being on July 4, I dont think they will have class that day. The final is comprehinsive. :chair: There will be so much to learn.

-Composition and Rhetoric

-Issues of the Older Adult

-Intro to Nursing

-General Psychology

-Intro to Sociology

-Mth1100 or higher (3 credits)

-Any 3 credit communications course

-Two 3 credit art/humanity courses - I'll be taking developmental psychology and contemporary ethics

Then you have to either take Zoology or Intro to Anatomy to advance into the biology prereqs, which are:

A&P I, A&P II, and Microbiology.

Then 4 semesters of nursing courses once accepted.

We don't have a streamlined way of being accepted. Alot of factors go into it though. (1) county of residence, (2) program GPA, (3) ACT score and (4) number of courses completed when petitioning are usually considered first. Ultimately it's up to the college, though. Sometimes lower GPAs get picked over perfect ones..

I Guess I Consider My Self Blessed. We Have No Prereqs. You Have To Take The Pax/nln Entrance Exam, Make 55 And Have At Least A 2.75 Gpa. No Waiting List, If You Meet That You Are In. All Classes Are Mixed In With Nursing, Luckily For Me I Went To Community College First For General Education So I Only Have Nursing Classes Left. I Love Alabama.

How do they determine a 2.75 GPA without prereqs? Is this LPN or RN? I don't think that the LPN programs near me have any prereqs, but the RN programs do.

Good luck to you:)

We had to take:

Eng 101

Eng 102

Psy 101

Math 155

Math 101

either Math 110 or 120 (statistics/College algebra)

A&P I & II

Micro

Computers

and a humanities elective

We had to keep a GPA of at least 2.5.

This Is A University So Gpas Are From High School Or Previous College Credit. First Time Students Have A Hard Time Because Their First Semester Is 5-6 Classes. Usually Eng 101, Psy 101, Math 110, A&p I, Fundamentals Of Nursing W/lab, And Pharmacology. That Is Pretty Extreme. So Since I Took All Of That I Will Only Have Nursing Lasses, Thank God.

Pre-reqs:

Comp I

College Algebra

Intro to Psych

A&P I

Other classes:

A&P II

Micro

Life Span, Growth & Dev

Humanities

We have to take the NET. Admissions are based on pre-req GPA, with number of hours towards program used as the tie breaker.

**Edited to add..I forgot about Chemistry**

Eng 111

Eng 112

College Algebra

Developmental/lifespan Psychology

Sociology

Microbiology

Anatomy and Physiology I (I got suckered into taking BIO 101 too, even though it's not "required")

Anatomy and Physiology II

NET exam, and gpa of 2.5 is required, and they use NET and GPA to choose about 80 people.

Pre-reqs for Yavapai College (required before you can be officially admitted to the program)

ENG 101 and 102

College Algebra

BIO 181 (or other approved 100-level BIO class)

CHM 130 or higher

Once into the program (or you can do what I did, and take all non-nursing classes *before* you get into the program):

Nursing classes

A&P 1 and 2

Microbiology

PSY 101 and 245 (Intro and Development)

Nutrition

Humanities (200-level Philosophy, Literature...)

I'm in a BSN program, having two years of prereqs and two years of strictly nursing courses. Our prereqs:

-Biology

-A&P I & II

-Micro

-Chem

-Nutrition

-College Algebra

-Statistics

-Eng Comp I & II

-Psych

-Human Development

-Sociology

-Bioethics

-Economics

-History

-Interpersonal Communication

-2 Humanities courses

I liked doing the program this way because I was able to take all of my prereqs at community colleges and then transfer for the last two years (no wait list) and end up with a BSN.

The only pre-req I needed was Chemistry.

We took Anatomy, Physiology, Micro, Psych, etc. while in nursing school although it was much less of a workload if you had taken them before.

My plan is to complete my non-nursing classes beforehand also, how did that work out for you? Will you complete the program faster?
