  1. MGH IHP DE NP 2018

    ForensicPMHNP replied to DahyanaSchlosser's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    If you don't mind taking the train there are other neighboring towns besides Somerville that cost less but you would be looking at a commute, I live in MA about 35 minutes north of the city and rent...

  2. MGH IHP DE NP 2018

    ForensicPMHNP replied to DahyanaSchlosser's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Sure. Also, MGH IHP became a separate entity because it had to, it was no longer small enough to just be an educational program within the hospital; both MGH and MGH IHP are still owned by the same...

  3. MGH IHP DE NP 2018

    ForensicPMHNP replied to DahyanaSchlosser's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Right...first of all I replied to you not because anybody asked. None of what you wrote is news to me or most of the people here, nor is the anecdotal info that your friends out west provided...

  4. MGH IHP DE NP 2018

    ForensicPMHNP replied to DahyanaSchlosser's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Seems to me like you heart is set on Columbia anyway, where did you read no degrees until graduation for MGH? You complete the BSN portion of the program in the first year and take the NCLEX at that...

  9. Confused

    ForensicPMHNP replied to whitescrubsaremyfave's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    A "B" is considered failing? Not that I think anyone should settle for less than A if they can help it, but I don't think I have ever heard of a program that considers a B as a failure... even the...

  11. I really need advice

    ForensicPMHNP replied to itswild's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You will be fine either way to be honest, you are young and your undergrad career is very solid, if possible shadow both FNP's and Psych NP's and see what you prefer. You will come across a ton of...

  13. NP program with low gpa

    ForensicPMHNP replied to SchoolRN2018's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    How long ago was undergrad for you? A 2.7 GPA is definitely low for NP school but if you do well in the prerequisites, take some extra graduate courses and write a really good statement you may be...

  17. Reconsidering FNP school - should I quit?

    ForensicPMHNP replied to AnalystRN's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The DNP requirement has not become a standard and will not become one for at least a few years so I would not factor that into your decision, you should spend time with FNPs if possible and look at...

  18. Psych Mental Health NP- Competitive?

    ForensicPMHNP replied to mariehp's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    No need for snark or sarcasm that's for children. None of what I said is untrue, direct entry programs from good schools are not easy and definitely do not take just anyone (believe me I know), if...

  19. Psych Mental Health NP- Competitive?

    ForensicPMHNP replied to mariehp's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Good NP programs are competitive and do not just accept anyone, you have to have the grades and the recommendations and make a good impression with your essay.Secondly, a psych RN does not necessarily...

  20. Direct entry graduate nursing school advice -NP

    ForensicPMHNP replied to JTravelsTheWorld's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Most PA programs require prior direct patient care experience before you can gain admission, it is true that they are based on the allopathic model but entry into those programs is quite strict. Also,...

  21. Direct entry graduate nursing school advice -NP

    ForensicPMHNP replied to JTravelsTheWorld's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Do what makes financial sense to you. Gaining experience as a bedside RN is great but if the direct entry program makes more sense financially and time wise then that is where you should go. As long...

  22. PMHNP admissions

    ForensicPMHNP replied to KG7396's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Your grades are pretty good honestly,granted, programs are competitive but you seem like a solid student overall and given the fact that you have a BSN already you won't have as hard of a time as you...

  23. Simmons Online vs. BC

    ForensicPMHNP replied to DrewRN28's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    They are both solid programs and you should be fine with whatever you choose. BC is more rigorous but also quite respected in the state, all the NP's I know that graduated from there went on to do...

  24. Psych NP vs Derm NP

    ForensicPMHNP replied to googs's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Take my advice with a grain of salt as I am just now starting the journey through NP school. From the research I have made most Dermatology practice generally go for PA's rather than FNP's. As a psych...

  25. Which schools eliminated the MN and only offer DNP?

    ForensicPMHNP replied to kmn1's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I highly doubt that any school would do that at this time, it would just lead to a loss in revenue and the switch to DNP was a reccomendation not a requirement, I highly doubt any school has gone in...
