Can you anybody give me feed back on the online Simmons Family Nurse Practitioner Program vs University of South Alabama? Is it worth the cost? Has anybody in Louisiana completed this program. I have applied for the January 2015 FNP class, no answer yet!
Thank you,
Nurse Looking for the right thing to do!

I just applied for the Jan '15 cohort and received confirmation that it is being reviewed by faculty and should hear within 4 weeks.
How long did it take for each of you to hear back?
And if you don't mind me asking what is your GPA and experience?
I also applied to Georgetown's program as well. Waiting to hear back is so hard…..eeek!

FYI there are no online program grads yet from Simmons, though there are plenty of brick and mortar grads. Good luck all.

As Boston said, there are no current grads yet as the first cohort began for the online cohort in Oct 2013. I'm a current student if you have any specific questions.
Tasha are you part-time or full-time in the program? I was accepted to the Jan'15 cohort. Were you able to work at all during the program?

I'm in the same cohort as Tasha. I'm still working FT, Monday to Friday from 8-430. I do leave a couple hours early one day a week for class and then I have weekend classes too. I would say most of the students work FT, at least for now. I think it will definitely change when we start clinicals.
Oh, and I'm part time in the program.
