D'Youville University PMHNP

Published

Hello, I'm starting the PMHNP online program at D'Youville University in Spring 2025, and I reside in Westchester, NY. I was wondering if anyone has been or is currently in the nursing program. I would love to connect and share some experiences throughout the program!

I am scheduled to start August 2025 will definitely like to hear some insight. and I would also like to connect with someone I tried to DM a couple of ppl but I think because I'm newly registered to the new allnurses website it is not allowing me :(

Congratulations and welcome!  The exams are not bad if you put in hard work. The exam  proctor is strict. I advise you to reach out to your academic advisor if you encounter any difficulties. Good luck!

Yes, please. You just need to prepare for a lot of information before the exam. The school and exam aren't bad if you study the materials and the instructor provides you with what to prepare for. I believe in you; you can do it.

I have been accepted for 2025 and trying to decide what to do.! Would love some perspective/ opinions on the program too

Congratulations and welcome! The school and the exam are not bad. You need to prepare by studying a lot of materials, and I appreciate the professor for providing a list of topics to focus on for the upcoming exam instead of requiring us to read the entire textbook. You've got this.

Hello again,

are you in an online program? I decided only to take one course per semester so I can still work full-time four days a week. I am wondering about the exam proctor? Because my major concern is that if it is online I cannot do mandatory log in times because I work 4 days week during weekdays..

How was the exam? Could you kindly provide me with some assistance, and in return, I could also assist you in your studies? DM me Thank You ! 

Hi - I hope you are doing well on your exams.  My advice for you is that if you find yourself struggling with any classes, try and join study groups; it helps a lot. The app won't allow me to DM you. You got this.

Yes, I'm a full-time online student with a full-time job and my child. That's awesome for taking one class at a time because the materials load isn't a joke. The exam proctor is strict; you have to do a 360 room scan, no phones, and if you try to Google or AI search any exam question, you will be detected, and it won't even allow you to search anything while taking the exam. After the students complete each exam, the professors can view the video.

They have a specific date for the exam? like weekdays?

Also, there's no mandatory log-in; you only have to complete the required assignment before the due date and time. All exams open at 8am and close at 11.59pm, while some exams close at 8pm.

So far I'm in -  no weekend exams; all the exams are on weekdays. The exams are scheduled on either Tuesday or Thursday.

You need to read your course syllabus to mark down the exam dates on Canvas.
