Accelerated FNP or Adult gero NP programs

[RNnextstopDNP]

Hi,

Im interested in getting becoming a FNP or Adult gero NP. Ive been having a hard time finding accelerated NP programs. I know of Vanderbilt. Are there any other schools out there?

What do you mean by "accelerated"? Less than 2 years to complete?

[RNnextstopDNP]

Yes less than 2 years

[SopranoKris, MSN, RN, NP]

University of Miami (FL) has a 3 semester full time program, but you have to live in the area.

Most full time programs will have you completed just right at the 2 year mark, for example Georgetown, Michigan State University, etc.

UofM Flint full time is 5 semesters/16 months and doesn't require students to live in Michigan. It is competitive and darn busy, though.

I've been looking for MSN FNP programs that you can complete full-time in less than 2 years. Here's what I've found, hope this helps:
