Post Masters FNP Certificate Programs

Specialties NP

Published

I just found this thread and am jumping in because I am looking for just the post-graduate certificate portion. I am completing a MSN from University of Phoenix and have enjoyed the program in spite of the expense. I can't say that the work has been especially taxing, but it is a lot of writing and I was a writer before I went into nursing.

I am looking for an online FNP post graduate certificate that doesn't require the GRE. I don't want to take the GRE again because it's been over five years and it's just not worth the extra stress.

So far, I've found Duke, but they want a LOT of clinical hours. Seton Hall has an on line program and I've talked to Graceland. There's got to be another option that I haven't considered. Graceland does say that their pass rate on the first attempt for NP is 98%, so that sounds good.

Hello, jwl300.

I moved your post to its very own thread for a better response.

You might check here at allnursingschools.com for a list of post masters certificates. But, I do not know if they all are online and/or meet your expectations/requirements:

Hello,

I recently graduated from Ball State University online MSN/FNP program. I highly recommend it, the only drawback is that you have to get your preceptors in the area where you live. You can check it out at http://www.bsu.edu/nursing/ . E mail me privately, if you have any questions about the program

And by the way, IMHO, the MAT was EASY and CHEAPER than the GRE.
