USA Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (FPNP) has really spiked my interest because of the affordable tuition rates. I have not applied yet, I am starting a new job on Monday Feb 11,2013. I plan to have everything turned in by the end of February for the 2013 cycle. I have started the tedious "Centralized Application Service for Nursing Programs (NursingCAS)" process. Who has already been accepted?

Hi! I'm getting myself ready to apply! April 1st is the deadline. I just left my job as an HIV care management nurse, and I'm hoping to be able to get into the condensed plan of study. I can't afford to take off more than 18 months! Plus there is such extreme need in my area right now. We have 3 nursing schools here, so competition for RN jobs is fierce.... But there are currently 22 open fpmhnp positions in a 50 mile radius. Good luck to you! Let me know how that CAS went for you.

Hello Germjunkie,

I love the name... Congrats on your willingness and motivation. At this point I won't make the April deadline since I am starting a new job March 18. I am considering FNP vs PMHNP, I am in San Antonio and the job market is pretty balanced I don't want to be stuck with limited opportunities. Heck by my new enrollment time I may have changed my mind. I can always get certified in psychiatric nursing.
