Thank you for all your responses! It is really helpful. I will start contacting the schools I am interested in. I'm interested in fnp, adp, or gnp programs. The specialties are pretty competitive and may require work experience, which is always a good thing. Do you know what department areas you would recommend working in to get experience for preparation for family nurse practitioner?

Hi everyone, I am interested in becoming a Family Nurse Practitioner or Adult/Geriatric Nurse Practitioner as soon as possible after I finish my last year of BSN. Is it possible to apply my last semester into an MSN program and see if I get into a MSN program or do I have to wait til I graduate and pass NCLEX before I can start applying to MSN programs? Also, what do schools offering MSN programs look for in applicants? I know I have to get a Nursing GPA of 3.0 or greater for the schools I have looked at, but are there other things they look for? Work experience, Volunteering at various organizations or communities, internships/externships, etc? Have any of you been successful in applying to NP programs in California? What experience/achievements did you do to get in? Thank you

thank you for your responses. I still need a couple more schools who use HESI exit exam.

Hi Please list your school if you use HESI exit exam. It is greatly appreciated. For my nursing class project, I need to find schools that use HESI. Thank you.

Hi 2126, could you tell me what school u go to?

HI, I wanted to know if your school uses ATI or HESI exit exam to prepare for NCLEX. Which one is better? Could you put the name of your school and whether you use ATI or HESI. Thank you!!!
