Starting FNP at Indiana State

Published

Specializes in ER nurse.

I am looking to start my FNP at Indiana State online program. I am looking to see if there are any nurses out there about to do the same thing so as to possible start a study group.

Thanks

I am starting the FNP online program this fall at Indiana State.

Hi there.  I'm wondering how things are going.  I am looking into their program for a post-masters FNP.  

Hi Natasha, 

I am only in my second semester but so far I am impressed with the program. I have yet to start any real clinical classes, it has been mostly the fluff classes like "health perspectives" and "nursing theory" which I know are required in any accredited NP curriculum. I have taken statistics and pathophysiology as well and have really liked those courses. Everything is online so it is designed for the self directed/independent learner which I really like. I don't think this is unique to Indiana State, as most schools are moving to this model. The value for the program is really where Indiana State shines, it is half the cost of most other programs I have looked at. I think run-away tuition rates across the country have gotten out of hand and was very pleasantly surprised to see a well regarded program with such reasonable tuition.
