FNP programs

I have a BSN. I worked as a floor nurse in a SNF for 8 months, 4 months on a post op neuro unit at a hospital, then the past 2 years as a resident care manager at a SNF (which is similar to a RN case manager).

I have always wanted to return to school and get a masters degree. Originally I thought I would take the management/ leadership route, however I have gotten burned out on managing patients and floor staff over the past 2 years. I want to return to the medical aspect of things. Hence I have decided on FNP.

I am narrowing down my search for programs. I live in Oregon, I don't think I will have an issue finding a preceptor. Does anyone have any recommendations for FNP programs? Pros and Cons? Any I should steer clear from? Also, any other advice regarding NP school is appreciated. Thanks!

So far my top choices include:

Purdue University Northwest Hammond, IN

Northwest Nazarene University Nampa, ID

Graceland University Independence, MO

Loyola University of New Orleans New Orleans, LA

University of South Alabama, College of Nursing Mobile, AL

Texas Tech University Health Sciences Lubbock, TX

Frontier Nursing University Hyden, KY
