ACNP salaries

Following. ACNP is my end goal. When I put my location in (New Orleans) the figure seemed believable. But would like to see what others in the field think.

Wow, I wish! The starting figure I got was about 55K higher than the salary quotes I've been getting for Inpatient NP jobs..

Oddly enough though, when I enter 'Boston' and not the suburb I live in (as I first did) the salary is right on. So maybe it is accurate for cities?

Perhaps it's driven by personal input so the big cities have more people reporting

I typed my zip code (SF, CA) and the salary seems accurate.

It's weird that ya'll are getting accurate numbers. It's way off for Houston. I'm $22K above the average, and I only have 2 years experience. Somebody messed that one up.

I don't think it is accurate at all.

It is not accurate at all... from what I see. I plug in for salary of areas that I know that pay much more then I plug in the salary for the low-paying area that I know for sure. The salary does not match up as I expected. The best salary sources are the "word of mouth", not the quote by the internet

The figures seem a bit optimistic from my standpoint. I can only hope this is where my employer gets their information for my upcoming salary review.

For my area, Sacramento, the estimate was ~5% too low. My salary is above the higher estimate after ~2 years of practice.

I looked for my zip code and it was >27,000 too low for what I make. 8.7 years experience.

I would say it's not very accurate. It said 50,000 for a new np in my area. I made more then that as an lpn. Who would go back to school for that pay?
