thanks siri, i did read those, and the white paper from nonpf although it did take me several days. i am more interested in the forum participants' thoughts.

I also am interested to know opinions/experiences on MSN vs DNP. I am looking into grad schools right now, and it seems like many schools are transitioning from MSN to DNP programs. Looking towards my future career as an NP, would it make sense for me to go from BSN-MSN, or should I think about going directly to a DNP program?

Hello, glimpses,

This is a 3-year old thread.

Please see this current and lengthy one about the DNP: Doctoral degree to become an NP???
