Hey, I was turned down by two and half schools for the fall for the master's prepared NP. Actually UAB supposedly rolled me over for the spring but I don't know how that's gonna turn out. So I took the liberty and have now applied to Loyola University of New Orleans BSN-DNP program hoping I will have better look getting in. The program in its entirety is three years which I don't think is that bad. I was wondering is anyone else applying to Loyola or know of anyone who has applied. Just trying to get some ins/outs about the school if at all possible.
Thanks

I am applying there too. Good Luck and may we both be accepted. I was also going to look into Univ of AZ and Univ of South Alabama. At this point are we not applying for Fall 2012? Surely classes are or have begun for 2011.

I graduated from their msn hcsm program in may. I truly enjoyed the program and the faculty. I live in the New Orleans area, but chose the online format. I don 't think you'll be disappointed!
Sorry should have specified ...graduated from Loyola .

Not sure where you live, but one of the best BSN-DNP programs I've seen in my research in Georgia Health Sciences University ACNP/ACNS program. Full time it is 8 semesters and part-time is 11 semesters. Not a lot of fluff and 10803 clinical hours. It is a hybrid and mostly online. Their FNP program is also rated highly and is hybrid. It is currently MSN, but may go DNP by fall of 2012. The FNP includes a seperate class on psych drugs so you can do med management for psych patients.
Have you heard anything yet?
Was rolled over again from Uab figured this would happen. Msn FNP too competitive. Keeping fingers crossed for Loyola New Orleans pgm.

I was accepted into Loyola Univ's BSN-DNP program that starts this summer and pretty excited about it! I felt it would be a good program to do, the DNP program will be accredited in the spring, it's online and it takes three years. They are in the top 10% for online nursing schools as well.. Did you get accepted?
I'm in too and can't wait to start!
Yay @Mom to 4, I am excited! I guess I will see you in April!
