NP School

I know Rush here in Chicago offers both a Full and Part time NP program in various specialities.

As far as tuition assistance/reimbursement I think it completely depends n the employer and what you want. My friend is taking pre-reqs to gain admission to an ADN program and works for the hospital here. She opted for the 1200/semester reimbursement which is under what she has in expenses since she usually only takes 2 classes at a time. The same hospital also offers full tuition reimbursement for some degrees but you have to agree to work for them for 5 yrs after you have your degree and they can move you to any hospital in the system during that time.

I can only really speak for this area though, things may be entirely different in your area. Your best bet would be to talk to the HR dept of the hospital you want to work at and ask them what their tuition reimbursement policy is for people pursuing APDs.

Best wishes.

I think most MSN programs are designed to accomodate the working nurse, except CRNA programs. For example, the program that I am in offers a part time program, an accelerated part time program, and a full time program. As far as tuition reimbursement is concerned, it really varies by the hospital. The system that I work for will pay up to $3500 per year.

I attended my NP program full time. Classes were all day once/week my first year. Second year I had my classes again all on one day/week, and then had clinicals 2-3 other days/week. I worked part time/per diem during the program.
