Anyone know about Maryville's FNP program?

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Published

I am writing to see if anyone has attended or heard good things about Maryville University's FNP program? They are starting a new online FNP program next year, but am kind of leery because I am not able to find much about the program. Also, does anyone know where I might find FNP certification pass rates per university?

is anyone starting a facebook page for students starting on May 6 of this year?

Hello there guys, for those who are starting classes on May 6th. I have created a facebook page: facebook.com/groups/318553698272271

Hope to hear from you guys. I am excited as well as all of you I bet.

Cmunst45636,

I am a current student; pray to graduate Dec 2014.

There are no campus visits. I have yet to learn of conferences for any skills. I have asked quite often when the skills component will be obtained, i.e., advanced physical assessments and so on, but I have been informed that skills will be learned from clinical.

Cmunst45636 are you happy with the program so far?

This information is a little off topic, but I am in Maryville's BSN program, and it is very unorganized! Everybody tells you something different. It is very frustrating, because it is so expensive! You wou,d think the program woukd be seamless by now! It's not a new program, so I can only imagine how they would be for a brand new program. Kind of scary....

Hey all! I'm am thinking about applying for the Maryville program. What are your thoughts on how it prepares you? How are preceptor searches going??

I love Maryville! I have actually found a preceptor from my previous employer for adults. I will need one for women's and peds tho

Spoke to an advisor today. She said around 735 $ a credit hr, roughly 34k for the program plus a 325 $ fee every semester. Hope this helps someone. Can anyone speak on the grading curve? I read in the forum someone stated anything less thsn 82 was a C which gets you into trouble with the program..

Anything below 85% is a C. One course with a C = academic probation. 2 or more C grades = academic suspension from the program.

I'm in my third class and still going with no plans on switching at this point if that tells you anything. Yes, there is some significant disorganization but they seem to be working on it continually. Its a new program so can be expected. My first class had an okay professor - not much feedback, but she was available and would help best she could. Second class was horrible professor - she was not considerate to other students, took weeks to grade papers, often didn't show up for the scheduled class meetings (which she set time for) and had excuse after excuse. Now with that said, she did not grade overly hard as I don't think she had time to do any of it. So not a good professor to learn from, but if can ignore it all eventually it all worked out fine for the type of basic class it was. Now in my third class and the professor is awesome!!!! It is patho so really appreciate having a good instructor. Next class starts soon adding to patho and haven't seen how this will be. So, yes I think it is okay and hopefully continues to improve.
