University of Alabama (Capstone) 2015 Fall DNP

Published

Hello! Is anybody attending UA(Capstone) DNP starting August 2015?? I just received my acceptance letter this week and was curious about who I'll be cohorting with this fall. Hope to hear from you all soon! 😄

More so in 700 for me. Let me know if you need help in 701. You have my email. : )

How did the first semester go?? I'm surprised I made it out! It was brutal but I learned the areas that I am weak in.

I applied for this program, but decided to pay for a divorce attorney instead of tuition, lol. However, I am thinking about doing it for 16. I am just really hung up on the capstone proposal. Any insights on how long or involved it should be. Thanks.

The proposal that you have to send in with the application?

It should give an introduction of the capstone research you plan on executing in your DNP program.

Mine was a little over 2 pages.

I don't think it has to be particularly long or in depth. It is also ok if you change your entire topic and project plan after starting the program. I think the admission committee want to see that you have given some thought to doctoral level project ideas and likely will use your proposal as a writing sample. Look at the Student Handbook (http://nursing.ua.edu/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/graduate_handbook.pdf pg 70) for some additional information and ideas. Good luck!

Congratulations! How long after applying did you receive an acceptance letter? Were you able to work while doing the program? How intensive was it?
