Advice Requested PLEASE!!!

Published

I have been an RN for over 12 years. I will soon finish my BSN. The school I am currently attending does not have an FNP tract. What I am needing help with is deciding which FNP programs would be the best option for me. I am hoping someone will be on here that has went through an online FNP program and can offer some advice. I am hoping to find an online FNP program that I can attend full time and work full time. I am married and have children-- super supportive husband. My job is semi flexible. I will have to stay full time at work, at least until toward the end, and full time in school for loan and scholarship reasons. A couple on site visits during the program would be fine.

Has anyone done this or know someone who has done this?? PLEASE HELP!!!

here is some productive and developmental information to put a positive spin on things for this uplifting conversation.

go to Best Online Nursing Programs | Online Nursing Rankings | US News

this site ranks online msn/fnp programs and there are hundreds, so this helps a lot. The one thing I looked at was how choosy the school is, and the student satisfaction rates etc. starting there is good. I have a friend attending Merryville, she said there is a lot of group work if you don't mind that, and she is paying a pretty big tuition, but likes it. South Alabama is another good option and came recommended by a DNP professor I studied under at another school.

Great info, thanks dollikoe! To OP, make sure you actually click potential schools and read the info from this link, it tells you about number of full time faculty, graduation rate, etc. I was able to find two for profit schools that are ranked in that list, Chamberlain and Kaplan. Both have a peer assesment score (what other schools think of their graduates and program) of 1.8 out of 5. Chamberlains graduatin rate is 56 percent and Kaplans is 41%, at least according to this.
