South University FNP MSN program???

Updated:   Published

So did anyone or is anyone currently in the FNP or Adult NP online program at this time? I spoke to an admissions rep and was really impressed. The set up is nice with one course at a time, although was told you can talk to your advisor and sometimes layer your courses here and there as well (like an 11wk course with one 5.5 wk course) which I'd prefer to do to get done faster...since I did my ASN at Excelsior and am finishing my BSN I'm well used to online format courses and have my time down to a science. I was planning on beginning my application process now, so that in December we submit everything with the potential to start the first week of Feb 2014...anyone else??? Any thoughts???

What do you not like about the program or makes you worry?

I think just reading so much bad reviews I'm scared they will try to screw me with more tuition or something. I pay out of pocket and it's expensive of course. Also I'm scared they lose their accreditation and after all that schooling I'm stuck! They never have answers for you whenever you ask them but sure contact you for their money.

Oh no! Well I hope all goes well. I have been torn between South, Keiser and Saint Joseph College in Maine. Trying to make a decision and appreciate the input for sure!!

Thanks so much! I don't know much about the others. I have heard bad things about Keiser also! Just keep an open mind and I know you will do great. Good luck :)

Thanks you too!

Hello everyone,

I am new to this site and have found it very helpful. I will be starting SU January 15th 2015. I am going to be in the FNP post -graduate program. I live in Michigan and here, we have an onsite campus where I will be attending class initially one day a week. I am so excited!! I have a friend who just graduated and she passed her boards on the first try!!! ..I am so happy for her.. that being said, often times it is not necessarily the school training that is responsible for people not passing boards. I believe there are many contributing factors. I wish you all well in your programs. This site has been invaluble to me and I thank all of you for your contribution. Wish me luck!!

How is Herzing's FNP program going? I am considering enrolling this January.

Thanks for the help!!

Not sure. I only know a coworker in the regular RN program and she had some problems with them. Not sure about the FNP program tho. Good luck !

Hi islander RN!

Just wondering how how things are going in the program? just wanting to know how the clinicals are with the classes? Are the 11wk classes intense also with the 180 clinical hours? Are there papers and care plans too or just tests?

Hey guys,

I am also set to start my practicums in March 2016 at South University. I know two ladies that attended South University and passed

boards the first time. I hope this helps!
