the benefits are standard. the administration showed me some w-2s of other employed nps who made around 140k but i know that she only showed me the w-2s of the highest earners so i'm taking that with a grain of salt. she also stated that all of the p...

Hello everyone! I see a lot of discussion regarding working as a clinician as an FNP but not much about alternative career paths. I'm the kind of person who plans out my life 10-15 years in advance so I like to gain a broad perspective of the possibi...

I'm in for FNP for this fall! I have a question for current students. I noticed on the website that the 17 month BSN program ends in December. Does the MSN portion begin the following January? Thanks!
40 minutes! I love seeing the excitement on this page! Hope everyone is going to have good news! I took the day off today because I had an interview with a school and because I knew I'd be super distracted by the pending release of the admission d...
I got in for FNP too! I can't believe it! I can finally stop stressing out over getting into school, haha. If there are any current FNP students here, I would love to hear your guys's perspectives on the program! :)
