Needing help! Looking for FNP programs!!

[ProspectiveNP1]

Hello there, 

I am looking for FNP program. I live in Chicago. Initally looking for only online. However, I have read some comments that it is better to choose Hybrid .I am not looking for DNP. I felt frustrated and confused and I think I’m more confused now from reading comments on here LOL. Please any recommendations on good programs? I feel many schools have bad reviews. 

Ones I have been looking at: NIU, Olivet, Lewis, Resurrection, University of South Indiana, Cedarville( has 4 on campus attendance which I know is nothing but have to factor in travel and lodging expenses)

I am also wondering if anyone knows if it makes a difference to not attend schools accredited by CCNE or ACEN. I see there are some that are accredited by regional accreditations. I don’t know if this affects anything when I sit for boards or if employers care about this.

 

Thank You for reading and I hope to get some help here ! ☺️
