EagerToBeFNP

Hello! I was wondering if any FIU NP students could give me some insight! I've been accepted into UM and FIU's FNP programs. Due to cost, FIUs program is looking like the better option, but my only concern is that the school does not select preceptor...

Hello. I'm a new grad FNP and just started working about 1 month ago. I was able to shadow the MD one week prior to starting. When starting, I then saw my own patients and would present the cases to the MD so he could diagnose and create the plan. No...

I'd prefer not to post too much information, but it is a specialty practice. I was given a VERY different version of how things would start the first couple of months (eg. severity of patients, amount of time booked per patient, the fact that each pt...

Hello- information can be found on their website: http://www.miami.edu/sonhs/index.php/sonhs/academics/master_programs/family_np/admission/. I recommend getting all of your information in as early as possible. The GRE is not required for the program....

Hi- I just got into their full time program. The interview was quite straight forward and seemed to just be a verification of your application. There weren't very many questions- Why FNP? Why UM? How do you view the future of the profession? How do y...

I would also be careful about posting this stuff online...best of luck to you.

I'm a student at MDC and am hoping to become a nurse practioner. I have been accepted into MDC generic entry level nursing program for nursing as well Nova;s BSN program. I'm unsure as to which I should attend. Any thoughts? Which is a better educati...

congratz npachon! That's great news! When I had applied, they had told me that they did not offer it but I think now they only offer it once a year instead of two. Sorry for any confusion!

Hi! For FIU, does anyone know if you have to take intercultural communication before entering the program or can you take it during it? Thank you!

Does anyone know which books we should keep from first semester for second, if any??

Does anyone know which books we should keep from first semester for second, if any??

It's five semesters so if you start in January of 2012 you'll be an RN (with an associates) by like April or May 2013.

Thanks for all of the help everyone :) Also, do we really need the expensive stethescope? And is the rolling backpack necessary?

I'm exicted! What are we supposed to wear to class? And is anyone actually buying the shoes from the bookstore or just wearing white sneakers? Check your degree audits! Mine is a mess. There's several classes that I have taken that says have not been...

Which hospitals are offered for the Homestead campus students?Does anyone know their general locations??

Congratz Tatortoz! And don't worry, you aren't the only one that's going to be busy!!

Just to make sure, they give us our schedual, right? We don't have to sign up for it online. Also, when does everything have to be submitted by? Oh, and do we need to bring anything to the orientation? On Eagles Wings: I sort of live in that area. S...

I hope the program is hard at MDC and they try to weed out the weak first. It will mean that they take their program very seriously. MDC doesn't offer the Baptist scholarship anymore because of budjet costs. They do however offer another scholarship ...

Pomkayya, I would be careful because when I was signing up for the CPR/BLS course I think I saw some options for just the CPR course. Eagles, wow, thank you so much! Yeah, I'm sure they won't care if my criminal check is a little later. I'm gonna ke...

Is anybody else really confused about the things we need to get done:/ ? It seems like a really long list and I could use some help! Here's what it seems like so far.. 1) Go to Bursar's office and pay $100 and get reciept 2) Go to nursing department ...

I've decided on attending MDC. It will just be an extra step to get a bachelors. In the end I want to be a nurse practitioner so that means I will have to get my Masters degree. That's a lot of schooling and if I have to pay $18,000 for tuition plus ...

I just called right now and they said my application is still pending. They said we should know by the end of the week and when I said "I thought it was by Wednesday" the gentlemen on the phone replied with "Yes, that's the middle of the week". :/ Ho...

Thank you so much! I see your point of view...I don't want to go to a school just because it seems fancier and then be thousands of dollars in debt. But I'm assuming since Nova is a private school that they have more money and therefore access to bet...

I got accepted this week into the generic and fulltime program but am waiting to hear from other schools before I make my decision. I don't like the fact that you only end up with an associates and and not a bachelors so I have some thinking to do. G...

For those of you who have been accepted, congratulations!!! ALSO, have you guys completed all your pre-reqs? Or are you still taking summer classes? Im curious because I have applied and am taking my last courses: A&P and sociology and wondering ...
