Simmons online FNP 2015

Published

I just found out I was accepted into the Simmons FNP online program starting Januray 2015. Anyone else starting around the same time? I would also love to talk to people currently going there and how they like it. Hope to hear from some of you soon!

Specializes in Home Health, Podiatry, Neurology, Case Mgmt.

I'm currently in the program. I am in the March Part-Time cohort. Clinicals has already started for many student, might have better luck on the Simmons Facebook page (search for nursing@simmons) for these questions. I don't start clinical until June next year, however, I have already been told that they have secured placement in my area for students. I also helped the school get an affiliation agreement with the local VA medical center as well for the school.

Anyway, so far I love the program. It's really tough at times and A LOT of work. I started full time, but dropped to part time in term 2 due to having to work full time and not having enough time for school. A lot of people do full time work and full time school but with three kids at home under the age of 9 i just couldn't do it! =) I'm also the only one that works/has an income so no choice for me.

Congrats to those who got in, and good luck to those waiting. Feel free to friend me on facebook and/or send me a message on here if you have any questions.

I just found out I got into the March 15 cohort! Tasha, how did you secure a VA collaboration? I would love to do this, even though I won't start clinicals until next year.

I have been accepted fort January part time with the bio bridge course. I'm not 100 percent sure I am accepting, but it seems more than likely that I will accept. I have been in constant contact with the admissions team and attended the webinars (which I suggest to everyone; very helpful) and current students seem to enjoy the program and says staff are very understanding and flexible.
