Don't be discouraged. I graduated in May, took my boards in December and got my first job offer on Wednesday. Keep applying and pressing on. I have applied to many positions myself even the ones that required experience. Once you find the job that you're compassionate about, you will not regret obtaining your degree.

I took the FNP route. My only regret is that I wish I had done it sooner. I am a new graduate looking for a job but am exciting about the opportunity!!!

Providing care under both roles will become confusing. You were hired as a nurse practitioner and that should be your role. Additionally, your scope of practice is that of a NP.

Am sorry for the late response. Yes, I love the program. Will be graduating in May. Did you get accepted into the program?

Hello, I guess we are both in the program together. We started at the same time. I agree its a lot but its doable. Yes, I agree that you need to find preceptors as soon as possible.

I am currently in my second semester at ISU. The program is intense but doable. Cons as many programs is finding your own preceptor. Tons of reading. But like I mentioned before its doable.

First I want to congratulate you on your achievement. That is a great accomplishment. I am so sorry for your experiences but unfortunately race still is and will always be a determining factor in America. You should humbly accept the pediatric np position. You may enjoy that specialty.

motivatedlpn, You need to find a good support system to get you through the program. I am currently residing in Georgia and starting a online FNP program in August. Don't be discouraged you will get through it. Find a good support system, keep out with your readings and assignments and find your preceptors early.

mollysdream I think you have to be a nurse for at least one year or more before you can apply, but ask someone at the school.

rosannache, I sent you a private message!

Congratulations. I think we are all a little nervous but excited. We will be ok. We have all worked hard to get to this point and are about to take on a new pathway. I am confident that we will succeed as long as we continue to work hard and stay focus.

Congratulations!!!

Congratulations to you!
