I see on their website that you can be certified as a Nurse Practitioner after you graduate- how long would that take?/ What is the difference between doing the msn and becoming a CNL and then getting certified as a FNP vs. doing the direct entry masters program that you graduate as a FNP in? I guess this is all new and extremely overwhelming ! Thanks so much for all of your advice

Hey y'all I am looking to apply to the next cohort of the Direct entry BSN/MSN program and was wondering if y'all could tell me some stats on GPAs etc from those of you who have been accepted?

@StudentACNPTX I'm not sure-- that's why I posted on this forum; I'm trying to research all of my options and make the best choice for me. I want to be a Nurse Practitioner - willing to take any road to get there.

Laura, I am so happy you responded because I have always dreamed of being a nurse midewife! Could you give me more info on your program and how that all works? Also the average GPA etc since I am still finishing my Bachelor's degree in Human Development! Thank you so much!

Hey y'all. I am currently having a hard time and I think that y'alls insight would be really helpful. I want to become a Nurse Practitioner . I wasn't accepted into a BSN program in my area with a 3.5 GPA so I started in a LPN program. I work at a doctors office and they suggested looking into the accelerated MSN for someone who has a degree in something other than nursing. I can graduate with a degree in Human Development and Family Studies by this summer if I drop the LPN program I am in now. I really want to do the MSN program but my extensive research has shown a variety of responses on competitiveness, difficulty, and trust of these programs. I guess I am wondering should I take the risk and apply for the accelerated program or continue with the LPN to ADN to BSN to MSN route? Also would it look good to be a LPN applying to the accelerated program? Or can I do other things that would be a lot cheaper and less time consuming that would still enhance my resume ? Thanks so much !
