On line DNP

Specialties Doctoral

Updated:   Published

Hello, my name is Jennifer and I'm actually finishing my masters has a nurse practioner in Montréal (Canada). I'm interesting to do a doctorate but we don't have this kind of program in my country. I want to know if in USA it's possible to register for an on line DNP. If it exist, could you give me information about? Thank you so much!

Jennifer

We have 2 Canadians in my BSN to DNP program. Both are licensed in NY. I am not sure if you must be licensed in the US or not. There are many online DNP programs.

I am enrolled in a BSN to DNP program at Loyola University New Orleans. It is an online program, you have to visit campus in New Orleans 1 week a year, must find your clinical sites, & the clinical instructor will travel to your clinical site each semester to evaluate you.

Have you looked at Eastern Kentucky University? It is completely online. You should call the online graduate office and talk to the coordinator, she will answer all your questions. Not much information on the website except for classes, tuition and such. Good luck on your search

I'm sure there are plenty of Online DNP programs that would love to take your tuition payments. The question is - what is your end goal. They have DNPs for administration as well as for Clinical Practice. Where will you be practicing? If its in Canada, it would behoove you to look up the licensure and certification requirements for Canada...and the Province you're going to practice in for that matter. If its the US - each program has a requirement as to RN licensure pre-DNP (at least for clinical DNPs). Also, make sure your BSN from your Canadian nursing school works.

There was a Canadian in my Chatham University DNP program. She now works in the US, although she lived and worked in Canada during the program.
