There are tons of these out there, but most of them seem to be old, closed posts. I will also add a poll to this post. Seems there are a lot of people wanting more thorough data than only what salary.com can provide. Hopefully this post will provide a salary expectation for fnp hopefuls, students, new grads, and people considering the field of nursing.

That would be a complex poll lol. I guess this can be for people that are close to new grads or new grads

Do PAs really make more that NPs? I currently work in an ER with other PAs and NPs and we all make the same salary. However, I honestly though NPs would make more and be more desirable overall.

I know a few PAs hitting close to 200k (many 150k with normal hours). Out in my area PAs make a bit more because they staff specialized areas while NPs dominate primary care.

I only make 95 working 42 hr weeks as a new grad. Night shift. Few extra shifts a month at the clinic will push me close to 120 here shorty. I am rural though. Rural ky. Our clinic nps make from 85-110 85 bring base and then incentive if you see more pts. One guy was pulling close to 120 for a 40 hr week since he was very fast

I live in a low cost of living area in the South. Here when I graduate I can expect $75-85,000/year without experience.
