Hello! I'm enrolled in GCU's May start date for Masters FNP and hoping to find others that are as well! Anyone?

Hello! I am hoping to find other nurses out there that have been accepted to the NAU FNP program- with a start date of summer/fall 2019! It would be great to have others to talk to that are in the same program. Speak up! ?

Hello! I'm new here so please forgive me if this was asked elsewhere. I just applied for the NAU FNP program about a month ago (july 2018) for the summer or fall semester (requested summer start)- does anyone know how long it takes before you find o...

Hello! Hard for me to remember exactly but I do remember it was approximately 3 months and long enough that I was wondering how close to the start date they planned to bother to tell us so we could get ready. Their inaction and complete disorganizati...

Hello! I believe the program runs near 40,000 once all is said and done. I do work full time- but I’m finding it doable. Barely. But doable. The first 4 classes are mainly just writing. Once the advanced classes start- there is a year of what they c...

Hello! The program for FNP at GCU had 3 start times per year. You just be online a minimum of 3 days per week- of your choosing. Although I would warn that the advanced classes take a lot of time, regardless of the minimum 3 days required.

Absolutely!!

Hello! So far so good with GCU for their FNP! As far as first day goes- as long as you can post your short personal bio on the class wall, which takes about 5 minutes, you should be fine to hit the rest starting day two- in my opinion. Yay for you!!...

In just my experience with both- NAU was extremely disorganized and late with any information they stated they would get to me. And then when I received information- it was typically incorrect or was not at all the information I had been promised. I ...

Hello!!! I’m in the process of applying to both banner south campus (north did not have med surg positions available for day shift right now) and at TMC. Do you have any comparisons between banner south and TMC you could share? Are you at the south c...

Hello! So far so good at GCU for their FNP! Granted- I had an advisor that was not responsive and some financial aide and scholarship funding use issues that I had to go past my cricket noises advisor to their bosses.... but it got straightened out. ...

Good morning! I actually decided on GCU. I used them for my BSN and loved them. My main issue for the FNP was finding my own clinical placements- which NAU does for you, however, the ones I know that did NAU said the placements from Tucson were prett...

I have not made my final decision yet between GCU and NAU. I’m not sure why this decision is so hard for me... I suppose it’s because of the time length commitment. Either school will be awesome, so it’s hard to decide.

Mountainmamameg- there were several reasons I am leaning towards GCU- even beyond the good experience I had with them. I like that they do classes one at a time rather than traditional semesters with the length and multiple classes thing going on. Th...

AZNurse- yes, please let us know what you decide. So many good schools out there! I’m thankful to have a choice and do not think there is necessarily a wrong choice at all.

Well ladies.... the more I look at the situation- the more I’m sure I’m going with GCU after all! It seems that clinical set up is the only advantage NAU has over GCU and the clinical sites may be far away.... that, and I loved my BSN at GCU. Still d...

Good morning! GCU wants you to get your own sites/preceptors for all classes "womb to tomb" and will not assist in finding the sites at all- however, they DO help put a contract into place if you find somewhere you want to do a rotation in and that f...

Hello Megan! Nice to "meet" you! I am from Arizona, born and raised here. I live in Tucson. I got in part time as well. I called to ask what happened and they said that only 5% of FNP students are considered full-time and those are usually people...
