Direct Entry NP Programs?

Published

Hey all!

I am finishing up my Bachelor's in Psychology. I'd like to become a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I am trying to find direct entry programs for non-nurses (no BSN or ADN/ASN). I have found some direct-entry MSN programs, but those generally have you working as an RN, not an APRN. I was wondering if such a program exists, and if so, where they might be.

Thank you all in advance!

There are many in Massachusetts. Some of them involve you working as a nurse for a year but not all. It is good experience anyways to work as a nurse before becoming an NP.
