Anyone know about Maryville's FNP program?

Published

I am writing to see if anyone has attended or heard good things about Maryville University's FNP program? They are starting a new online FNP program next year, but am kind of leery because I am not able to find much about the program. Also, does anyone know where I might find FNP certification pass rates per university?

Waiting to hear, should be this week.

I am thinking about applying to Maryville Univ nurse practitioners online program. I see several comments from soon to be students. Is anyone currently enrolled and can you provide any feedback on your experiences?

I was enrolled there I went for one semester and then switched to another University. There was about 5 people who switched at the same time as me and there have been a lot of frustrations from students who stayed related to the disorganization of a new online program. I have no doubt they will all get a great education in the end but since its a new online program there has been a lot of glitches and frustrations. The workload/busywork is also very high, lots of busy work that is extremely time consuming. For example, they estimated that it would take 3 hours to write a 12 page research paper and gave us a week to do it. Not super realistic...lots of group work and papers. It sounds like there hasn't been a lot of changes or improvements with the many complaints and feedback...yet. Depending on when you start, maybe they'll work it out? You can message me if you want more details. :)

Are there any on campus visits?? Or conferences to learn suturing? I noticed some schools have days to meet to do suturing and EKG lessons.

Hello everyone! I am just starting the process for MVU online FNP. Praying for acceptance for Fall 2013. i am feeling apprehensive now after reading some of the posts about the inconsistencies and disorganization of the online program. I'm also concerned about the price quote of 33K for the total program and then seeing upwards of 43K. Does anyone have any solid information on some of my concerns?

Thank you for the uplifting post. I've read some negative posts about the program. I have not yet been accepted but am hoping for Fall 2013. Are the instructors supportive and helpful? Do they have extremely high expectations? I want a solid education but can do without the nit-picky stuff.

I had completed the admission process and 2 weeks later the advisor told me that they couldn't accept TN residents at this time. I was very upset because this was a question that I kept asking in the beginning. The advisor told me that TN had some requirements that the school hasn't met yet. So if you plan on applying find out if they're fully accredited in your state.
