    FutureAdultGeroNP replied to massDNP's topic in School, College Programs

    FutureAdultGeroNP replied to massDNP's topic in School, College Programs

    FutureAdultGeroNP replied to dtaylor723's topic in Nursing Educators, Faculty

    FutureAdultGeroNP replied to nurseann11's topic in Disaster Preparation

  16. UMASS Worcester - GEP 2020

    FutureAdultGeroNP replied to massDNP's topic in School, College Programs

    @futurenp1234 I don't know the specifics of how the clinical assignments work in the NP years. I think that you can specify your interest and they will try to meet it, but I don't think they can...

  18. Simmons Direct Entry 2019

    FutureAdultGeroNP replied to as23's topic in School, College Programs

    Simmons has a very good reputation around here (the direct entry program, not their NP online program). I got in, but declined in favor of UMass. I decided on UMass because it makes more financial...
