  3. University of South Alabama NP program

    Hi there jfish. I am in my last year of the program, and would do it all again. I have not had any bad experiences with any professors. I have had classmates talk of bad experiences, but I have found that if you put in the work you will succeed. You ...
  4. University of South Alabama NP program

    I am in the last year of PMHNP at USA. There are not class videos and lectures. It is quite challenging, but if you put in enough time you will do fine. It's all about your effort - as it should be. When you get the A, you will have earned it - and y...
  5. University of South Alabama NP program

    I am in my 6th semester of 9 at USA and I think it depends on your program. The psych program requires half of all clinical hours to be done with a psych nurse practitioner. They won't budge with this requirement. There are students in my class who w...
  6. Online NP Progams and Clinical Placement

    University of South Alabama does not and also requires that half of your hours be completed with a psych NP. This requirement is not negotiable. If you live in a rural area with no psych NPs available, or in a state that does not allow NP independent...
  7. Dear New Grad Nurse

    Do not ever get involved in gossip about a coworker and never say anything bad about anyone you work with. Words can easily be taken out of context. Be careful what you say about anyone who works with you, even when what you are saying isn't necessar...

  11. University of South Alabama MSN/BSN-DNP Psych NP 2012

    The courses are very much self taught, BUT I have had every question answered I have ever asked in a very quick manner. Once you get used to doing the instruction all your own, you will like it more. In the beginning I thought that I had made a mista...
  12. University of South Alabama MSN/BSN-DNP Psych NP 2012

    I am currently in the PMHNP program at USA. The tuition is right at 500 a credit hour when it's all said and done. I expect to pay $1500 per 3 credit hour class. Yes, you must have 2 years experience in your chosen speciality before you can start cl...
  13. USA MSN-DNP

    I am in my 3rd semester at USA and work full time (5 days a week). Regardless of the program, many of the first classes are the same. My first semester was NU545 (patho) and Nu607 (a theory class). Summer was another theory class. I can honestly tell...
  14. I am in my 3rd semester at USA and work full time (5 days a week). My first semester was NU545 (patho) and Nu607 (a theory class). Summer was another theory class. I can honestly tell you that 95% of my time not working is spent studying or writing p...

  17. University of South Alabama MSN/BSN-DNP Psych NP 2012

    Lildrekie- I have a question for you if you do not mind. Were you allowed to Do clinicals in the evenings and weekends in the PMHNP program at USA??? What hours were you allowed to do them? I know that some students can and some cannot. What were you...
  18. University of South Alabama MSN/BSN-DNP Psych NP 2012

    Cenfromlv- I currently am about to finish patho at USA. I work approximately 45 hours a week/5 days a week. I am in patho and a writing class. It is doable, but I literally give 98% of my off time to school. Patho is 7 tests every other Wednesday. T...
  19. University of South Alabama MSN/BSN-DNP Psych NP 2012

    One more thing.....did you work during the core psych semesters? If so, how much? Did the rest of your class? I'm nervous about how all of that is going to play out. I am trying to set myself up for working less - if at all possible. Thank you for yo...

  21. Jacksonville State University BSN Come In Here

    Hi, there. I am scheduled to graduate from the JSU step program in December of this year. I am in the last of three semesters. I have maintained a 4.0 at JSU. The program is not difficult, but it IS time intense. There are multiple power points,...

  23. Is everyone still waiting? I sure am!
  24. Greg - I live in lower Alabama, about 3.5 hours from Mobile. I, too, plan to do the longer program. I work full time and could not manage the semester with 360 clinical hours! At first I was a little bummed about the time it would take to complete...
  25. Hi there. I applied to the same program and start date. I think we should hear within 6 to 8 weeks after the August 1 deadline. Is that what you have heard/read? Are you going to do the shorter program track or the longer route? Jill.
