Northern Arizona University (NAU) FNP - Summer 2019 anyone else?

I didn't know, but the deadline to apply was last December, so the earliest I can start is next June. I've read that others who applied for full time only got part time, so I'm worried that If I pass up the GCU start date in Sept, I may not get into the program, so I'm super stressed on what to do

Oh that sucks. I applied full time and was initially only accepted part time. I emailed the registrar a few times and I guess someone didn’t accept their full time seat so I got lucky and got it. I wouldn’t want to wait a year to start though. I heard university of Phoenix is pretty good program too.

I just completed FNP @ NAU, and I was miserable the entire time.

Please do NOT attend NAU even if it's free.

You will be miserable because of some of their uncaring (OR) "do not give damn teachers" specially the one that is in charge of the whole program.

Everything that was written here by others about the disorganization of the teachers is true.

They will not answer your correspondence for weeks, and eventually, after a few weeks, you get a "yes or no" answer, even if your questions required a simple explanation.

If you ask 5 questions, she (the lady in charge) will only answer one question with a "yes or no."

For example, when the semester begins, there are multiple dates for each exam and each assignment, and you have to email, text, and ask multiple teachers before they tell you the correct dates for the test or your assignment. Even then, you will have to get clarification for the clarified, because, they still have the problem not resolved, and you have to write more emails and texts to clarify the new 2 different dates for the exams.

Please go anywhere else, other than NAU.

Please do not go to NAU.
