Hi!Has anyone here went to St. Louis University for ANP program? I am going to start the program this fall and I just want to get some info how was the program? Im working 3 and 4 days in 2 weeks as an RN, should I take 2 or 3 subjects in one semester? Please give me some advises and how much time did you spend on studying? Is there anyone ready to sell all their books and notes that could help me finish the program? I am so willing to buy it from you..please advise and please respond.. havent been back to school for a while and its so nerve racking already..need advices everyone please..thanks so much! =)

Thanks, Im still pretty new to this site...not sure how to PM you? I clicked on your name and didnt see messaging there either. I'm pregnant with my second so I really wanted to get 3 classes out of the way as soon as possible. They said they only accept 25 students in the FNP program and it was tough competition. I spoke with the Dean and she is the one who suggested ANP, which still had openings. Patho has test. They are proctored. You need a webcam for your computer so they watch you. No books or notes for the exams. there are 6 exams and the final is not cumulative, thank goodness!

Thanks allsia07 for taking time to answer my questions. How long after you applied before you heard? Was it by email or snail mail? I'm on pins and needles. I'm overwhelmed by the idea of going but...I really want to. I just don't know what a reasonable course load is if I get accepted. I'm in no rush to finish but I don't want to plod along either. Were they helpful at assisting with your program course of study? Admissions has been very easy to deal with; now I hurry up and wait. I'm finishing up my BSN this semester but have been a nurse a while. The research class I'm in now is awful. What does yours entail?

I think I heard within 30 days of the application deadline. I received a congratulatory email first and then got the same letter via snail mail a week later. 1-2 courses per semester is the normal course load to finish in 3 years. My advisor was very helpful organizing my plan of study. We had to switch some classes around so that i met before clinicals. Nursing research now is just like my BSN. Lots of papers and peer reviewed articles.

Thank you again for this information. I envision grad school as very intense. I don't know what I'll do if I'm accepted or what I'll do if I'm not, lol! Didn't know you could finish in 3 yrs taking 1-2 courses/week. I look forward to hearing more as you progress. Good luck with your little ones!

Thanks. Good luck to you as well. Keep me posted or let me know if you have any more questions

Please, where can I get practice questions for Advanced Pathophysiology?

I don't know. Haven't come across any but I did hear there is study guides for the texts you can buy online.
