HELP!!! I would like to know which online FNP program you all recommend between Northern AZ University, University of Southern Indiana and Regis College out of Boston.

Overall experience, both good and bad. Thank you!

Hi! I live in Flagstaff, AZ so naturally my first choice was NAU. I got accepted for part time entry starting this summer. What I like about it is the option to be super part time. I can choose to do one class a semester, still have a life while pursuing my dreams, as well as paying as I go so I have little debt. It's about 27k not incl books. But I'm paying as I go. One class is 1100 so I figure I can save that much each semester. The last year is the clinical portion and it's the toughest and most likely I'll have to drop down to part time. But I have 3 years to worry about it. They help with placement but they are rural sites. You just have to be willing to commute. Even I might have to make a drive. But for one year I think it will be hard but worth it. You have to show up for a lab midterm during health assessment and a summer intensive for 5 days right before clinical start. Overall I'm happy with my choice! Good luck pursuing your NP dreams!
