Guest guest Posted November 21, 1999 Report Share Posted November 21, 1999 Maybe things have changed, but to the best of my knowledge UT Austin does not have a paramedic to RN program that gets you a BSN in 6 months. I have some friends here in Austin that were paramedics and wanted to get their BSN. They had to go through the paramedic-RN (ASN) program at Austin Community College (1 year), and then transfer to UT Austin. They then went to UT for about 2 years. If this is not the case anymore, it is something that has changed recently, and has not been very well advertised locally. I am quite involved with local EMS employees going to school in Austin and don't know of anybody doing a shorter program with UT. -Trey Wood [texasems-L] Re: Paramedic to RN > Larry, >The Univ. of TX at Austin has one in place already.
