Hello, Hope everyone is doing well. I write this post in the hopes of finding other current students of USU's FNP program; specifically, those that are starting this January as well. I applied and was accepted for the January cohort however, I wanted to hear if others have insight about their program based on personal experience. I'd be so grateful for any input. Thank you!

babyisa, BSN, RN 84 Posts Specializes in ICU, Neuroscience, Telemetry, Med/Surg. Has 8 years experience. Nov 25, 2020 I still have to complete the page where the signatures are required to finalize the enrollment. I keep doing more research on other programs and worry if I'm making the right choice. May I ask what ultimately led you to deciding on USU as opposed to other programs? I've been researching about USU since March of this year and have been pretty set on starting this year but I still worry about making the best informed decision since it is a tremendous investment of time and effort.
Jahmaal W 4 Posts Specializes in Emergency Nursing. Has 18 years experience. Nov 25, 2020 Well the price and the accreditation did it for me. Although there is not too much online about this school, this thread helped me to finalize my decision. I’ve read several post dating back to 2017 of the previous students who went to USU and all seemed legit. I’m OK with self learning as my BSN was all online. The program being 2 years along with the payment plan was also appealing!! I looked into chamberlain but it’s 2.5 years and more expensive. The brick and mortar schools were just toooo expensive !! I hope to start with you in January !
RNAshleyC, BSN, RN 4 Posts Has 6 years experience. Dec 3, 2020 I am starting January 5th as well. I agree, I did research but after reading the other posts of previous/current students, seeing the cost, and accreditation, I figured why not.

babyisa, BSN, RN 84 Posts Specializes in ICU, Neuroscience, Telemetry, Med/Surg. Has 8 years experience. Dec 10, 2020 Hi all, I am officially enrolled and set to start on January 5th! Perhaps we should try to make a facebook group?
RNAshleyC, BSN, RN 4 Posts Has 6 years experience. Dec 10, 2020 I think that would be a great idea for us to all connect: that way we can get to know each other help each other out throughout our journey!!
SNBSN281, BSN, RN 4 Posts Has 10 years experience. Dec 10, 2020 Hello, my name is Ernesto and I will be starting January 5, also. It would be nice to connect with fellow classmates on this journey.

Dec 10, 2020 I do not actively use facebook but it may be necessary to utilize facebook regularly to connect with everyone starting in January. Would anyone on this thread be willing to start a facebook group for those of us starting in January?
