Emory WHNP vs USF FNP?

[gator20, BSN, CNA]

Hi! I need help deciding between grad schools. I got into Emory for WHNP (my dream) but it seems so expensive and I am still unsure about going about clinical placements. I will be working full-time and school part-time. I am waiting to see my USF decision, but it is the same schedule but more support finding clinical placements. Also significantly cheaper. Do I take loans and do the expensive dream program or go to a cheaper school for a different specialty? I want to work on outpatient infertility/OBGYN settings in the future. I think WHNP would secure my place in it.

You have a very specific goal in mind! Is that realistic in your job market? I'm surprised Emory does not arrange clinical placements. If they can not do this important NP Program role, I would say it's not worth it to spend money there. If they can't even find your clinical placements, how can they even assist you in finding a career in women's health once you're done?
