Online FNP/ACNP Programs

Published

I will finish my BSN in July 2010. I want to become a FNP or ACNP. I am looking for online programs that are not extremely expensive. I would like recommendations from you all that are attending or have attended a MSN online program. Any information would be great. I am more interested in a college based program as opposed to Phoenix.

Thanks so much!

PhillySN, are you enrolled at U of Cinncinati? How is your online program going? I'm looking for something self-paced, not sure it exists. We can't really predict how things will go at this point in our careers, can we? I know I can't! Cindy1ou

There are so many online FNP programs. If you google all online MSN programs and then go under nurse practitioner programs you will be able to see what schools offer what. I have looked into several schools. I havent started Univ of CN because my husband got layed off so now I am reapplying for hopefully the spring or fall. I changed my name by the way.

I am really interested in University of Southern Indiana but can't start until Fall 2011, however, could start St Joseph's University Maine FNP in January but it's more than twice as expensive. Should I wait until fall and start at USI or just bite the bullet and start with St Joseph's? Any comments greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Has any one attended Frontier School of Midwifery, Womens Health and family NP programs? I see various other schools/ Univ are mentioned but don't see anything on Frontier? Any thoughts or recommendations?

Thanks

I am currently pursuing my FNP online through the RODP and ETSU, it is not that expensive. I was accepted to Ball State, RODP/ETSU, Indiana State Univ. and Graceland. I chose RODP/ETSU due to expense as well as graduating with my BSN from ETSU 14 years ago. With RODP you can choose full time or part time. I am attending part time due to working full time. Hope this information helps, also no GRE is needed and no trips except to clinicals which are set up in your area.

Where is it and how long does it take?

This is a late reply, but hope it's helpful. University of Southern Indiana has a good program. I graduated from their FNP program in 2005. PM me if you have further questions.

Graduated 12/14/2011 from USA. Did their ACNP track. I LIVED that program! It was not easy, but I liked the format. I recommend USA. If grad school were easy, everyone would be doing it.
