You had asked the same exact question I was considering of asking. I'm also from NY and would love to hear from anyone who's a New Yorker and goes to Frontier. Btw, since you posted this thread a year ago, did you apply there eventually? and yes, how did you like it?

To mom2michael: hi, I also have a question about the preceptorship at Frontier. I'm interested in the FNP program, how many preceptors do I need to locate in order to complete the program? Can I stay with one? Do you know if it is easy to locate fnps in NYC? Thank you in IAdvance

Hello, I got accepted to the NYU adult primary program back when I was in my undergraduate and just recently found out that if I decide to transfer to their new FNP program, I have to do full time. I'm strongly considering applying to FNU now, not only because I've heard so many positive comments, but also because I can do part time online. I don't know if this is a smart move. And how easy is it to find a preceptor in NYC? Also, seeking to talk to anyone from NYC who is applying or is already in the program. Thank you!

Hi Siri, I'm currently debating whether to go into midwifery or FNP. I know I want to do something related to OB but didn't know if FNP will offer that opportunity for me to work with OB patients. You mentioned in your post that you worked as an OB-GYN NP, can you tell me what role you took as an NP on a daily basis, and if it was in a clinic or hospital setting? Any other tips and advice will be helpful and greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance! Lululucy

Hi ladies! I'm a fellow NYU student. Currently I'm enrolled in the duo degree program and going back to school to get my masters in nursing. I'm having a very hard time deciding whether to follow my passion for Midwifery or do Fnp since it's a safer route. I don't know where in the progress you guys are in this program, but would like to hear from you about this program at NYU. I just have a few questions, if you can kindly answer for me. 1) Is it a rigorous program? What is the program composed of in terms of clinicals and classes? 2) Does it have both online and in-class courses? I signed up for research this summer and it has both. 3) Did you do full time or part time work while attending school? 4) How's the job market currently? Were you able to find a mentor or an internship? 5) Did NYU offer clinical settings or do you have to go find one yourself? 6) How's the liability and malpractice insurance for midwifery? 7) where are you intend to work after graduation? at a hospital setting? private clinic? birthing center? I'm excited about this journey ahead, but just need a little push on the way. Any tips and information would be helpful and appreciated! Thanks in advance! Lululucy

I think I will take your advice and take it to the hospital's mailroom to avoid any unwanted awkwardness. Thank you =]

Thank you! I think I'm going to deliver it in person and make sure that she gets it. =]

Well, the fact that I forgot didn't mean that I didn't appreciate that she took out time and interviewed me. I forgot because I had a lot of things going on in my life and I simply unintentionally forgot. I'm just asking sincerely for advice to seek for a better way to make up for my mistake. Don't take me wrong.

yeah... I'm planning to bring it to her tomorrow first thing in the morning. Hopefully, she accepts.

Hello all, I got an interview this past week, and was told to wait for a week on her reply. The manager seemed very impressed with me, and even told me that she has two positions for me to choose from. She did say along the lines that she has a position for me (twice during the interview). I don't know if I got the job for sure, but it seems like I got it. My issue, I totally forgot about the thank you note, what should I do? it's been 2-3 days since the interview? Should I email her first, then bring her a hand-written one in person? How long do you think is too long to call her about the position after the one week that she told me to wait, if I don't hear from her? Thank you in advance for any tips and help!

thank you so much! I wasn't too sure what exactly I was looking for. This link is very useful =]

Hello All! I'm having an interview this coming Monday, and the manager was nice enough to assign me a topic in advance and told me to do some research on HCAP. What it is? and how it has an impact on patient satisfaction?. I did some research on it as well, but just doesn't seem to get the right information. I'm a new graduate, and I have no idea what this stands for and its use in hospital settings. If any of you know about this system, please kindly post your comments, and it would be great if you can tell me some of your own past experience on what you did to improve patient satisfaction on your unit. Much help needed! Any tips on how to perform well during an interview would be greatly appreciated too! Thank you in advance!

thanks!

Ahh! good luck to you too! =] I'm taking it on Thursday, in the Queens NY. How about you?
