Best CNM programs in Phadelphia/NJ area?

Published

Looking for a CNM program, in the Philadelphia or NJ area, that are organized & provide clinical placement with preceptor? I have looked at online programs, but have read people have trouble finding preceptors & the schools aren't always prepared to set you up.

As far as I know the only brick and mortar programs are at UPenn and Rutgers. Philau is local but is a distance program. I went to UPenn's MSN open house. Overall the university is impressive but I cannot say I was blown away by the Midwifery program. I still would not rule out an application though. Jmho.

Philly U offers an online program, but you have to find your own preceptor. Philadelphia University | Midwifery About the Programs

I know a couple of people that I stalked on Philly U's facebook page. Two that have already graduated, one that is in her last round of clinicals and will be taking boards soon. You can go on FB and find people that are students posting on that page. Or you can PM me if you want to hear what I have been told :) But, as I said, you have to find your own preceptor for that program.
