Recently I have been granted acceptance into the University of Cincinnati Distance Learning Family Nurse Practitioner Program for the Summer of 2015.
I am aware there are various threads but I have not seen any real recent ones and I believe changes can occur yearly and would like to hear more feedback before fully committing.
I'm 21, a full time RN who does not plan on working pt. time, and in Summer 2015 I will start my first semester at U of Cinci (I already have completed a doctoral level stats course so I am able to bypass that class the first semester).. Anyways for those who are currently in the courses OR recently graduated:
1.) did you feel the online classes were challenging enough to prepare you for clinical/work but not so challenging that they consumed every ounce of free time?
2.) how did you feel the school views students.. Student friendly? Did you feel lost/left in the dark? Ect...
3.) my BIGGEST issue.. FINDING my own clinical preceptor while paying the school.. is there any type of assistance? has anyone NOT found a preceptor? advice on successfully landing a preceptor? ALSO.. do you need three new preceptors for the three clinical blocks??
PLEASE enlightened me with your pros and cons. I love to hear both sides before making such commitment. (this thread isn't limited to FNP majors only.. any distance learning student's advice will be appreciated)
Hey NurseKrysten we might be in the same class. Are you starting in Jan 8th, exactly 30 days from now? Anyway I am in the Biostatstics class with the lab. Lets chat, email me at simbaa2010 at yahoo, thats my old school email. Good luck
Hi guys - any updates on the program? I've heard amazing things and just applied. Unfortunately I'm now hearing horrible things in my online FNP forums!
I've been accepted to the Summer 2018 class. Just heard last week! I've heard more positive than negative, at least for more recent posts.... Good Luck!!
And which program did you apply for? I know they have certificate vs MSN and obviously specialty. They told me this was the week they're sending out for post MSN and I'm getting antsy!
Sweet!!! Congratulations!!!! I will also be in the FNP for the May 2018 start date!!! Have you talked to anyone else in the program? Some semesters have THREE classes, YIKES!!!!
I'm happy about getting in. Now just making it thru the next two years!!!
Hello, I just submitted my application to the University of Cincinnati for their FNP post master certificate program online starting Summer 2018. Do you know how long is the waiting period for acceptance?
I just got accepted for the Spring 2017 FNP online program! EEEEEKKK! I can't wait. Anyone else get accepted for this semester?
Hi! I know this an old post, but I was wondering how it's going in the program? I've been accepted for this fall and was wanting to know if it's been very difficult? How is biostatistics? Are you allowed to use notes? Are tests proctored? Thank you

I applied for fall as well....what was your timeline of paying the $65 app fee to hearing if you were accepted?
