Students who do not transfer in core complete will have tomeet TWU's remaining core requirements as nursing program prerequisites. Language, Philosophy& Culture, Creative Arts, and the Additional Math or Wellness need to be completed prior tobeginning nursing, but Multicultural Women's Studies can be taken after starting the nursingprogram, if necessary.BOLD indicates the prerequisites that absolutely must be completed, have a posted grade, and be transferred to TWU prior to application to the Nursing program. Additionally, before students canapply, they must have a minimum of 46 credit hours completed (1st degree only) and have the remainder of the prerequisite coursework in progress or set to be completed before beginning the nursingprogram.1. Austin Community College uses the same numbers, but prior to Fall 2016, they offered Human Anatomy in one course and Human Physiology in another. It is fine if you took these courses, as longas you took both courses prior to Fall 2016. We will not accept just one of their separated courses matched with A&P I or II.2. Psychology statistics or other non-MATH statistics may be substituted for Math 1703, if student has a completed TX state core curriculum from another institution or meets the requirements for corecompletion at TWU.3. Prior to 2013, many community colleges offered GOVT 2301 & 2302. instead of 2305 & 2306 GOVT 2301 & 2302 are acceptable, if brought in as a set. Alternately, GOVT 2301 alone can becombined with either 2305 or 2306. Those who are only transferring in GOVT 2302, however, will need to take both governments at TWU in order to fulfill state requirements.
