Looking ahead a little, and trying to scout out good, solid Psych NP programs. I'm currently finishing my BSN and have 5 classes left to go. Any advice of schools that have a good reputation or ones to avoid would be helpful
Thank you!

Here are some that come to mind: Boston College, UC San Francisco, Vanderbilt University, Yale University, MGH Institute, U Penn, U of Rochester, Northeastern, Seattle University, OHSU.
Psych NP programs are not that ubiquitous. There are none in my state, as far as I know (NJ), so I'll have to move once I'm accepted. Not a big deal really for me.

What are you looking for in a program? Online or on campus; public or private; MSN or DNP
Prefer online but open to on campus within an hour radius
Public or private doesn't matter
Looking for a MSN program
The APNA has a database on the web of all the programs. Consider taking a look at it and visit the program withing distance. Talk to the faculty and students. Get a sense if it's a good fit for you. The online programs you should be able to call and speak with someone, but strongly consider visiting the campus. Also consider looking in directories for graduates. Make an effort to talk to them. They can give some more advice. This should start you off.
