Has anyone done George Washington University Online Program?!?!

Published

Hi I was wondering if anyone has actually started or finished GWU Online Family Nurse Practitioner program and could give me any insight into how the program was? I was also curious if anyone did the program and was an out of state student (not in the DC/Virginia area) and how it went for you? Thank you!

Yes! I recently just completed my BSN degree in December:)

Congrats to those accepted! I thought I read somewhere on GW's site that part time MSN FNP had a spring start, not sure if instead of fall or in addition too. Anyone come across that?

GW's MSN FNP has both a fall and spring start for part-time. The full-time start is only offered during the fall.

Just thought I'd post for anyone looking into ADN - FNP programs that GWU slightly changed the format of the semesters this year... it used to be 9 semesters long for part-time education with Fall start and you'd walk in graduation in June of the year you graduate but still have to complete 1 more semester of classes... they've changed it so that now, for Fall start, it's 8 semesters and you'd finish in May of the 3rd year right before you walk in June graduation. They also changed the previous health assessment class - apparently in the past, you were required to obtain your own clinical hours for that class and come to campus to "test out"; now, they have students come to campus for 1 week for didactic education and a "test out" at the end due to students feeling they weren't getting a good enough learning experience / having difficulty finding someone for such a short clinical. The program still requires 40 hours of clinical your first summer semester during Community Health/Epidemiology and the overall NP clinical hours requirement has been decreased from 750 to 700 clinical hours, all completed in the last 3 semesters of the program as laid out in the outline. Here is a copy of the new format of the program - it has gone into effect for currently enrolled and future students.

I applied for the fall admission to the AGNP - Primary Care but haven't heard back on it yet. Did you find a way to track where your application was in their system?
