In the same length of time that it took you to type this question here, I google UC DAVIS FNP and came up with this.

The program is accredited by California but after January 2008 there is a requirement for a MSN to get licensed in California. Stanford and Davis are the only dual PA/FNP programs. The letter from Stanford explains the issues a little better:

Stanford chose to discontinue their FNP option. Davis has you finish the MSN classes through CSUS which gives you an MSN and allows you to sit for your FNP.
