Has anyone done this program? I'm looking into it and it seems great but there are hardly any updates reviews. Thanks!

The application process is very nice the representative is very thorough and helpful. My only concern is finding preceptor ship in Northern California I am very worried about the completion of clinical hours.

Thank you,

JM

@JMstudent I think the challenge of looking for preceptor and clinicals is the most challenging part in any FNP program. Good luck, I still am pending some requirements and mite not be able to start on the 9/1 cohort. Does any one know if the 570 hours is not met by graduation. Will you still be able to graduate and just finish remaining clinical hours needed post commencement or after the classes are done?

How is payment to USU? Someone on a board posted you had to pay for the degree up front?  Any advice on Utah preceptors?

It's $375 per month for the first year. That doesn't cover the total cost. The send year, you have to get loans or however you plan on paying. I believe it's still $26,650 for tuition. I've never heard of having to pay upfront. I'm in my forth class and have two more course for my first year.

I want to thank everyone for their posts. They have been very helpful. I am starting the FNP program in January.  I am still very nervous about finding a preceptor in Northern California.  I moved to Sacramento right before the pandemic hit so there has not been much ability to network. I am not sure how I would find a preceptor? Has anyone else had any luck in Northern California?

I live in Colorado, but if you have any ideas I'm open for sure. I honestly don't know what I'm going to do at this point.
