  1. PNP Salary and Outlook

    kadphilly replied to New2bMSNPNP's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I'd say, one average a full time PNP is making. $90,000 to 115,000. NP's have one of the fastest growing professions in general, with a 30% growth in the next 5-10 years. Not as many MD's are going...

  2. Recently met a FNP grad from Chamberlain

    kadphilly replied to raindrop's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I can tell you that from my experience, yes, the school does matter when getting hired as an NP. Chamberlain is mostly online I believe. Programs that are predominantly online are frowned upon for...

  7. Ivy League Schools worth it?

    kadphilly replied to medic1969's topic in General Students

    There are two Ivy League schools that have nursing programs. University of Pennsylvania has both undergrad and grad programs, and Yale only has a grad program. I attended Penn for my NP. Am I making...

  8. "Prestige" Nursing Schools

    kadphilly replied to meanmaryjean's topic in General Students

    I went to one of these "prestige" schools undergrad, and to another "prestige" Ivy League school for my masters/NP. Here's my take. First of all, I am from a working class family. I was a good...
