Maseca Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I spoke with Mary Blanding, the Admissions Coordinator. Had you previously spoken with someone else at the school? As an aside, have you tried Santa Monica College? I've been taking my prereq's there, and have had no problem enrolling in anything thus far. I've been enrolled in Anatomy, Physio and Chem 10 (I needed to brush up on basic Chem before jumping into the actually required Chemistry classes).

Guest DanyelleS Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I took A&P I and II through Mayville State University (ND). I think it cost about $1000 a course, 4 credits each. They mail you the specimens that you will dissect (rat, eyeball, etc) so that is pretty neat. I took 1st semester during the Spring and got an A, took the accelerated 2nd semester during the summer and got a B+. There is alot of work but if you have a good grasp on A&P already it isn't that difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DanyelleS Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 By the way, I would like to mention that I am currently taking Microbiology through Mountain State University. The final grade for the lecture portion is based on 6 exams and 2 papers (one is 3 page paper on a microbiology article and the other is a 5 page paper on a bacterium). The lab grade is based on 2 exams and 3 written case studies. So far I have only taken one exam in the lecture and one in the lab and they left me feeling a little frustrated. I really studied everything that I thought seemed would be on a normal test, but the actual test consisted of the most off the wall questions the professor could find. It seems I am going to have to pretty much memorize the entire textbook word for word. The distance learning depart isn't that easy to work with, especially considering I am overseas in the middle east, compared to some other schools I have taken courses through. And if anyone ever starts to consider taking an independent study course through U Arkansas, DON'T! Save yourself the headache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbarron Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 i'm currently taking a great 2 credit online Medical Terminology course at the University of Vermont - i'm not sure about the tuition (i take classses for free because I work here full-time), but I'm guessing it might be on the pricey side ... www.uvm.edu .... www.uvm.edu/~summer for summer course info (it's offered twice this summer i believe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbkiss Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I read every post on this thread and only saw one Connecticut site. I looked at it and it was mostly sketchy online-only schools. Has anyone taken any online courses in CT? I would love to get some instate tuition rates. I am looking at biochem, immunology, med term, pathophysiology...or some combination of those. Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DanyelleS Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Some schools have the same tuition charge for DL courses for instate and OOS students. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just_me Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 Geeze has anyone taken a biochem at a school that actually has some sort of payment plan?!?! It crazy that the schools with this course either do not allow NDS students to use the installment plans or they just do not have one available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebestnacho Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Ok so what do PA schools think of taking online courses? Can anyone field that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just_me Posted May 15, 2010 Author Share Posted May 15, 2010 Its actually been mentioned many times at the start of this thread :-) ----most programs are ok with online coursework as long as they are accredited---there are some that do not want pre-reqs online-----there are some that are ok with the lecture online but the labs must be on campus-----there are some that do not take them for pre-reqs at all. It is up to you to make sure you check with each program to see what they will and will not accept Ok so what do PA schools think of taking online courses? Can anyone field that?

JohnConner Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 (edited) www.tuiu.edu They offer A&P I and II with a lab. They also offer Microbiology with a lab. Also, other prereqs like stats, sociology and physcology. They are regionally accredited by wasc too.

Firemedic13 Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 So I thought I would mention Athabasca University. It is in Alberta, Canada but it is regionally accredited in the US by the Middle States Association. Their classes are online or distance learning but their labs are in person in Canada--but are condensed. You have to fly up there to take the lab for 3-5 days per class. This can be expensive, but can be easier on your schedule, depending on your needs and abilities. They offer a large variety of biology, chemistry and physics classes... too many to list here, at about $900 a class. And you would be looking at about $300-700 for the flight to get to Edmonton. So, it is expensive, but if you need that in person lab and you can't make it to your local one, I thought I would mention it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just_me Posted May 30, 2010 Author Share Posted May 30, 2010 Can you take the course without the lab? Some local school may let you take the lab locally with proof that you are registered in the lecture OR that you have already taken it. So I thought I would mention Athabasca University.
