Accepted! Need selection help! Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner Programs

Accepted! Need selection help!

I have been accepted to a couple of Family Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner Programs (Online) for Fall 14, and still have some pending decisions.

FPMHNP Programs ACCEPTED:

-Drexel University (3 year part time program)

-University of Southern Indiana (USI) [3 year part time program]

-Allen College (2 year full time program)

PENDING DECISIONS:

-St. Louis University

-Wilkes University

-University of Southern Mississippi

If anyone has any input on any of these programs I would greatly appreciate it. I have about 30 days to make a decision with USI, Drexel, and Allen college. and I wont be hearing from the other 3 schools for 2 to 3 months.

I think my first choice is SLU, but I cannot bank on that because I was already NOT ACCEPTED to them previously. So I will sign my acceptance letter to USI, Drexel, or Allen to ensure I will be starting a program in Fall of 14. And if I end up getting accepted in one of the latter programs I can always back out of one school and accept another (Can I?????)

But I am not sure which one to choose. I have seen a lot of good things about Drexel, but cannot come up with much info on USI, or Allen College.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

thanks!

Thank you for your comment, bigger 60. There are not many school accepting RN to psy np program, and I was very excited. But, I don't really know about school,,,, It requires a lot of money just like other psy np programs. Compared to other schools (online) it seemed to be too easy to accepted to psy np program when I told them my GPA. Oh, they asked me about my RN experience as well, Shall I go ahead and apply?
