  1. Truth about UAB NP-FNP program

    I interpreted this as: "UAB is difficult, choose a different program. Online NP schools are supposed to be easy!" This is is training to be a provider...it's not supposed to be easy nor is it supposed...

    When do classes
  3. PLEASE Consider Repution of your NP Program!!

    Nope, no type of accreditation is better than any other. NP accreditation is not dreadfully difficult to acquire, so I wouldn't use that as a gauge at all. With Indiana State, keep in mind that you...
  4. Looking for an online NP program recommendations

    I meant UAB. UAB offers instate tuition to online students. It is not double the price of USA, and is much higher ranked and more reputable
  5. GN to NP in <1yr

    1. What a lot of you don't realize is not everyone lives in an area of the country where they can just "go work" for two years. So many people on here are criticizing people who go straight from RN to...
  6. FNP indie practice: Internist supervisor OK?

    Internal medicine is the new family medicine. Many family physicians are actually trained in internal medicine, and insurance counts them as PCPs. Seems like a fine choice for an FNP

    Why does everyone think it will be today? I've not received an email or anything saying
  8. Pharmacist to PMHNP

  9. Looking for an online NP program recommendations

    Your choice. Good luck. Only trying to help. People on this forum need to educate themselves about for profit schools and reputation. For the record, USB offers in state tuiton to online students not...
  10. FNP vs ACNP in PA

    People need to stop pushing people into FNP programs just for "marketability" If you want to do inpatient hospital care, go to an ACNP program. Learning the skills you need to serve your patient...

    How many days per week on campus is Penn's MSN
  12. FNP vs. ACNP

    Definitely ACNP. You do a lot more impatient clinical work. Most FNP programs have clinicals outside the hospital, while ACNPs usually rotate through surgery, ICU,
  13. NP Fellowship or Residency Program

    I think they're great and I'm glad to see more of them popping up. There really aren't that many clinical hours in most NP programs so a residency is a great idea to get extra training. I hope they...
  14. Pharmacist to PMHNP

    dgmrph, I understand your concern with doing an RN program first, but there really is no shortcut to becoming a NURSE practitioner - you have to be a nurse first. There is absolutely NO WAY around...

    Good
  16. PLEASE Consider Repution of your NP Program!!

    Depends - can you do your clinicals in another state? The reason I ask is online FNP programs are not allowed in NY unless they are approved. Only two programs have received approval so far. The...
  17. Why are preceptors not provided in MSN programs?

    Omg peeps, shut up. This thread is about why MSN programs do not provide preceptors. I think we can all agree it's a stupid, money hungry policy that needs to change. My thought is this: It's sort of...
  18. An accredited BSN in required for nursing graduate programs as far as I know, especially FNP programs. Trust me, if someone would have figured out how to take students from unaccredited schools, the...

  20. Looking for an online NP program recommendations

    None of those are benefits to the NP profession. Rolling admissions - because they don't compare all applicants at once and pick the best class, rather they just admit everyone who meets the minimum...
  21. Duke University's online FNP program, Fall 2014

    Thanks so much - that's really helpful! If anything it makes me even more excited about Duke because it sounds like they are really committed to ensuring a high quality program by doing a complete...

    What do you mean online with live lectures? You mean lectures are recorded and watchable or do you mean online with occasional visits to campus for live
  23. Duke University's online FNP program, Fall 2014

    Is the new curriculum the same? Different classes, more campus visits? Is the program still the same length for online students (6 semesters?)
  24. Omg, you finished 3 classes in 3 weeks? The future of nursing looks very grim, folks. Where are the
  25. Looking for an online NP program recommendations

    Both are for-profit and I would avoid them. Why does everyone come on here asking about the for-profit schools only? There many BETTER, more REPUTABLE schools that are not for profit and cost LESS....
