I had a wonderful experience with this school. I finished a post masters FNP in 2020. As a working nurse with a MSN, this was a great option. The program was well developed and all of the professors were professional nurses who required students to already have a strong knowledge base (as they should). Professors called and spoke with preceptors regularly, academics were a challenge, and requirements helped prep students for boards.  I had no problems with financial payments, no issues with registering for classes, and they got my transcripts to the AANP swiftly.  I have turned down 2 job offers because I am staying at my current location, but was offered work immediately.  Additionally the school's job placement center called, emailed, and mailed me about job opportunities. I had to decline. Everyone will have a different experience, but mine was engaging and rewarding.

RUN!  Stay away from this school; it's a total scam.  They conceal that they have on site clinical requirements.  Sites won't work with you because the requirements are so utterly ridiculous.  Purdue Global conceals the clinical requirements because if they didn't no student in their right mind would go there.  Also, it appears professors intentionally waste your time in classes so you cannot move quickly in the Excel program.  If they make you go slowly, they can make you pay for more semsters.  Purdue Global is acomplete scam.  STAY AWAY!
