Rush U. CON DNP Fall 2014

Wanted to start a thread for those of you deciding to go to Rush U. for the DNP. Seems like a small program, but I am excited to be attending FT for my FNP. Let me know where any of you stand, if any of you exist on this forum:

• What will your concentration be?
  
• Will you be FT or PT?
  
• Will you be online or on-campus?
  

I will be an online student, but if I have trouble arranging clinicals as an out-of-state student, I will probably to take a year away from California to do clinicals in Chicago as Rush seems to have great ties in the Chicagoland area. I am so excited and hope to hear from any of you soon with the hopes of gaining enough support and getting a group going.

Hi Alpha,

Thanks for your response. I am not sure we will be classmates, but if all goes as planned we should be at commencement together and earning our hoods at the same time. I thought the CRNA c/o 2017 had its own forum though. Congrats to us and I wish you the best! Cheers!

Hi. I just got my acceptance email today! I will be in the DNP psych program. Full time. I live in Chicago, so whatever I can do on campus I will, and whatever has to be done online, so bet it. I'm very excited as this was my first choice.

I was accepted about a month ago. DNP Psych track. Full time and when I met with my adviser and was interviewed I was told both FT and PT are online. Have you heard different?

At my info session for the FNP, the director made it sound like on-campus classes were available for the didactic classes (i.e. physio, pharm, etc.). I am not sure, because I am going to be taking online classes from Southern California. Still trying to see about arranging my preceptors here, but that's not looking too good so I may have to go back to Chicago for the latter half of the program.

Hi, I am interested in Rush for psych and was wondering if you that are in psych wouldn't mind sharing some insight in the program?

I was also accepted to the University of Washington and am attending there. I can tell you I was impressed with the curriculum at Rush.
