George Washington University AGPCNP - FALL 2014

Published

Hi, has anyone applied/been accepted to the Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner program starting Fall 2014?

If so - have you heard anything yet? Anyone know what kind of "stats" GWU looks for re: years of and type of experience, GPA, etc?

And better yet, is anyone enrolled in this program? Any/all insider comments welcomed! Seems like a great program...?

Hi Capelove: Do you know if UM offer patho and pharm in the summer? How was the class set-up online or hybrid?

Hi Shantel - I don't believe they offer the classes in the summer. The setup is that there is a weekly lecture but you do not have to attend - you can print the power points and watch the lecture from your computer at home. You have to go to campus for the tests. For Pharm there were 5 tests and for Path there are 4. It probably doesn't make sense for you since you are already accepted into a graduate program (unless you delayed starting and decided to take those classes first). It's more for people who want to start graduate coursework but haven't decided on a track or school yet.

Thanks Capelove...which specialty are you FNP or AGNP? guess we will all meet on orientation day yay!

AGNP. See you in August!

Does anyone know how long orientation is? Is it a week long? As well as what are the times?

I would hate to think so...given we are all working individuals. A day or two seem more reasonable.

It's Monday-Wednesday. Not sure of the hours

Is anyone taking a summer class?

I wouldn't mind taking patho/pharm not sure if it's offered in summer.

I know health care quality is offered but I do not know if we are allowed to take it.

Specializes in ED.

Just got my acceptance for the BSN-DNP for AGNP at GWU. Does anyone know the dates of the orientation yet?

Specializes in Oncology, Palliative/Hospice, Float Pool.

Hello! I am very interested in their online Adult-Geriatric Primary Care NP program. I'd really like to hear some opinions on the program from a student point of view. The program is extremely costly, which is fine, but I'd just like to know its "worth it" before jumping in and sending in an application in a couple months. Some other specific questions: What exactly are the on-campus requirements? How does the program administer final exams and other such assessments? I understand this is in an online format, but is being located far away from the university going to be a problem in terms of clinical placements? I am located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin :)
