Former UNC or University of Alabama NP students, can you help?

I'm trying to make my final decision on where I am going to attend school this fall.

With UNC - my program is an on-campus FNP.

With Bama - it's an online dual program for FNP/PMHNP (which is very tempting and will allow me to practice in either area).

There are tons of pros and cons to both programs to me, but I wanted to hear from current or former students about their experiences.

- Do you/did you feel like you're well prepared to enter the work force?

- Were professors easily approachable and had your best interest at heart?

- Is it easy to ask for help and actually RECEIVE the help you may need from staff?

- Were clinicals easy to organize and set up?

- Anything else you think is a shining bonus to the school or something you would've like to have been changed.

I appreciate everyone's time!
