   @FutureRN9992: It is 4 years in total to get the DNP. At the end of year 3, you will be eligible to sit and take your board exam for your NP and try to find a job while you wrap up your DNP project. :)

   @futuregoals27 Classes for GEP Prep start usually the second week of August and then transitions into the first semester. ?

   Hi @santakali123: At least for the first year, you have two clinical sites. One of which is on campus, the other is 5min down the road from the school. I am pretty sure you can take the bus and get to all sites. ?

   @CCProspectiveDNPFNP: I don’t think you will be too forward in asking her as she was more than happy to do that for us last year. It’s too hard to get that level of reach without her help and many people don’t know that these groups/pages exist ...

   @CCProspectiveDNPFNP: No problem at all! PM me or inform the group of us when you make that facebook page and then I’ll join it too. I’ll let my cohort know too so we can organize events through facebook too.

   @ryoung79 they meet with people 1-1 so you might have just been in the waiting room. I recommend if you decide to go back from 2-4 to wait for the entire length of time and eventually you will be entered into the room. I would use your phone and just...

   Hi @CCProspectiveDNPFNP: Congrats on your recent acceptance! I’ll number my responses to your questions based on your question number. I apologize that this turned into a book. ? 1.) A facebook group I think is the best way to connect with ...

   I sent them an email but they do take a million years to respond. We got an email from them today and they are hosting office hours Tuesday’s and Thursday’s from 10-11 and 2-4. You might be sent to a waiting room, but a host should be there. If you h...

   @kavauro Good luck tomorrow! You’ll be just fine. I put up some sample interview questions in an above thread that you can see. I’m sure others can chime in with their most recent interview experience. I would also research your faculty so you k...

    @wp650 yes, they have a formal accepted students day. Ours was virtual (yours probably will be too unless things change). You may not have heard anything yet because they are still accepting students. I think I was accepted at the end of February las...

    Hi @ryoung79: Each semester varies greatly (and can change with COVID), but I can tell you what my class schedule was last semester. Monday: 9:00-11:30 (Med/Surg), 1:30-3:00 (Biomed) and 3:15-5:15 (concepts) Tuesday: 7am - 7pm Clinical...

    Yeah relaxing is what I would recommend the most. Even with the med math packet that you will receive over the Summer, do not... and I repeat DO NOT spend all that time reading the chapters. Just complete the packet and go to GEP Prep with questions ...

    That’s a great question! I would say the biggest pro would be the professors and the timeliness of the program. Getting an RN in one year is awesome and we can work throughout the program as well. The Professors are there to help you as well and supp...

    Congratulations to both of you @wp650 and @Niithompson22! That’s so great to hear. ? I’m assuming this school is your first choice, so please let me know if you have any other direct questions that may not be now related to the admissions process. I’...

    I’m glad the questions were helpful! I hope you get in!! ? You do get some additional funds for expenses like books, but it is through the grad plus loan, which is separate. You get it after the add/drop period each semester and it is direct de...
