Did you get accepted and are you currently enrolled? If so, how do you like UND? Thank you......

Hi! I ended up applying for the AGNP track and got accepted. I just completed my first semester. So far I am really impressed with UND. It was important to me to attend a brick and mortar University that doesn't just let every person in that applies. The tuition is very reasonable and the faculty has been excellent to work with.

Thanks Heidi! Even though UND is a brick and mortar school, the program is 100% online (save for a 1 week campus visit), correct? Do you know why UND requires 2 semesters each of patho, and pharm? I'm wondering if the material covered in these semester courses is 1/2 of what is covered in a standard advanced patho or pharm semester course? Or, is it 2X the amount of material? Thanks for any additional help Heidi!

The program has 4 on campus meetings and the rest is all online through a variety of teaching modes, including some live classes via Adobe Connect. The timing of them depends if you go part time or full time. One visit of the 4 total is for a mandatory 2 day orientation. As far as the 2 semesters of patho and pharm, I'm not sure on that as I haven't gotten that far but my guess is the material is split between the 2 semesters (they are listed as Pharm I & II etc.). They are 3 credits each.....I'll ask the full time students and get back to you on that.

Thank you, again, Heidi. Yes, I'd be interested to know. I have also emailed UND, as I want to know if it is 2X the amount of material, or rather, spread over 2X the length......The Psych program does not state 4 on-campus visits, but rather 1. I will double-check I am not misreading that. Thanks again!
