To all the nurses or nursing student that are accepted to another NP or direct-entry program DO NOT ATTEND REGIS COLLEGE IF YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED TO ANOTHER SCHOOL. I am in my last year of the program where you need a nurse practitioner to precept you. You have to complete 600 hours of clinicals for the year. THEY MAKE YOU FIND YOUR OWN PRECEPTORS. I got a mid-term warning notice a couple of weeks ago because they failed to find me an np preceptor and I couldn't find my own. They do not have a strong affilliation or relationship with surrounding hospitals. Most schools are very surprised that students have to find their own preceptors in the last year of the program. The last year of school is alread very stessful, do you really want the added stress of finding your own np preceptor. Most np's do no like to take students b/c they slow then down and they don't get paid extra. If you do not know a few np's from different specialities the chances of getting a preceptor is slim to none. I am paying approximately $40,000 for my education and I have to find my own preceptor, are you kidding me?
