What to ask about an MSN program?

Nursing Students NP Students

I have an interview for a psychiatric-mental health MSN program coming up. Any advice on what information I should inquire about (e.g. do you set up all the clinicals, etc.)? Thanks!

Specializes in Nursing Professional Development.

Definitely find out the details of any practicums you need to do. Will they help you find a preceptor? Or will you be totally on your own to arrange your own clinical education experiences? A lot of students don't think about that until they have already invested a lot of time, effort, and money into a graduate program -- and then find that they can't get anyone to be their preceptor.

I would also want to know the credentials and (clinical) experience of the faculty I would be working with.
