Switching FNP programs

Hi all,

I wanted advice regarding switching programs and if it's worth doing it at this point. I'm so torn between switching to another FNP program due to the fact that I am simply unhappy with the one I'm at. Extremely unhappy about having to find clinical placements on my own, people from the program not getting back to me when I try to follow up multiple times on several issues and just general disorganization (losing my documents, etc). I am looking into a more reputable program, a bit pricier but at least I don't have to find my own preceptors, the program is hybrid (online/campus). I have 2 colleagues who graduated from the program and are happy with the education they got there. The only downside is, I would have to retake 18 credits (which would take 3 semesters)! I am so desperate to leave my program that I'm willing to repeat a whole year...any advice welcome

    If you are close to graduating then don't do it. If you don't want to add ridiculous amounts to your loans then don't do it. If you are so unhappy that you can't possibly complete your program and don't mind retaking classes & adding to loans.....Go for it. I know people that left my program and started others. They are happy. Personally, I stuck it out because none of that appealed to me. Only you can decide.

    Is finding clinical placement the top reason why you want to transfer, because many NP programs require the student to secure their own preceptor?
