Accelerated Science Courses - bigkahoona724 - 04-03-2021 Hello, I have been a long time follower and utilized this forum many times over for myself and others. Both my brother and I have graduated from TESU with accelerated degrees but now I am looking to accomplish prerequisite courses to qualify for a Doctor of Physical Therapy program. I currently have Physics I w/lab, chem I w/lab, and a few other ones. Now I need Chem II, Physics II, Bio I/II, and A&P I/II (all w/ labs). Luckily, I have the GI bill so cheap isn't a necessity but it obviously comes with other stipulations. Really what I am looking for is accelerated courses that are 8 weeks or less with an accredited university that the GI Bill will accept. I am able to find A&P I/II in 8 week courses but the best I can find for the others is 12 weeks and that is by piece milling courses from multiple colleges. I would like to take all of these courses at a single college if possible. I prefer shorter classes so I can focus on one at a time rather than taking 2-3 courses over a 16 week period (its just how I work and I know it works well this way). I know this information is somewhere on the internet. This also is probably not the best place to ask this question but I know the members here are resourceful and have an amazing collective knowledge. So, does a college exist that offers the courses I need online and at an accelerated pace? I've checked TESU, ASU, Excelsior, Charter Oaks, and APU with no luck. Thank you all for any help you can provide! RE: Accelerated Science Courses - rachel83az - 04-04-2021 I think NMJC offers all of those? I am not completely sure but it's worth a look. Otherwise, take a look at this page: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Obscure_Credits I'm not familiar with term length but maybe one of those would work for you. I don't think your GI Bill would accept Portage or I would suggest them because I think that they are self-paced. RE: Accelerated Science Courses - Ideas - 04-04-2021 They don't have separate A&Ps, but they have the rest: https://online.une.edu/science-prerequisites/courses/ They are self-paced so you can finish fast. RE: Accelerated Science Courses - freeloader - 04-04-2021 Pretty sure Southern California University of Health Sciences has all of them with online/distance labs. They look to be 5 week online classes. The school is RA. The sticker price looks to be $2,000/class. Certainly expensive, but if GI bill would cover, this seems to be in line with what you want: https://acceleratedsciences.scuhs.edu/ RE: Accelerated Science Courses - bjcheung77 - 04-04-2021 An option is to try "a few" of the NM colleges all at once! Take 6 credits at one and another 6 credits at a different one - NMJC, Clovis, Luna. I haven't checked the schedules or times, but you might want to give Logan University a try as well: https://www.logan.edu/ RE: Accelerated Science Courses - dfrecore - 04-04-2021 Doane University Online $329/cr https://www.doane.edu/lp/prereqs.html?source=google&medium=ppc&campaign=597920817&adgroup=25711622942&keyword=doane%20prerequisites&creative=334967778400&r_source=Web-CPS-google-ppc&gclid=CjwKCAjwx6WDBhBQEiwA_dP8raNQrGZUlnKmQ_GeDpAWRHWfLEaqJ3MXJr900NpuXxrjFUfATYEFahoCpCsQAvD_BwE A nice option here is that Physics can either be taken as algebra-based or calculus-based, depending on which you need. RE: Accelerated Science Courses - natshar - 04-04-2021 University of New England offers self-paced options: https://online.une.edu/science-prerequisites/ $360/credit plus $30 per class. The courses are 16 weeks long but self-paced and new ones start every 2 -3 weeks. Even if you sign up for multiple courses, you can do one at a time. |
