Utica University - FNP Online Program

Updated:   Published

Hi My Fellow Nurses,

My name is Letisha, and I live in Brooklyn, NY. I am seeking an online Family NP Program. I know about Frontier, Downstate and Utica College. Does anyone have any reviews about Utica's online FNP program? I know it's a relatively new program. Any info is very much appreciated!

Hello everybody! How so far are you doing? I just finished the first class, all good except I have to record videos. :))  Does anybody hear anything about school accreditation status?   

Girl, we are ALL WAITING to hear from them! No word yet. I will call the school today. 
good job with your first class! You are on the road to success ?

I spoke to the success coach and stressed that we need an answer, she said most likely by the Summer they will be accredited. I don’t want to start clinical’s and they not accredited. 
 

Also, has anyone in the program noticed they are constantly changing requirements and making things a lot more difficult, like the make sure you log in 3 times a week and comment  and you must reply to every question the prof asks.

To get accreditation they need to graduate one class. From what I am understanding, the first graduating class will be this May. 

Also, as you progress, the class number increasing like leadership is 588, quality is 603, nursing research is 609. It shows that each  class will have more expectations and more learning. I am not thrilled about logging in 3 times a week either, but this is a part of their program and part of learning, hence, I try to coordinate my time appropriately. You can probably do some of the replies in advance and post them on the required date.

IV been doing just that, do in advance and post on the required number of days, it is doable, just tedious. And you have to be a pro in APA. I live by that APA book, even if I think I know I still double check and use grammerly they are strict on APA and the time requirements of your video comments. 
 

To my understanding they do need to graduate a class hopefully everything goes well, and we can all rest easy with the program.

That will change once your done with some classes, I only log on twice a week for class. Pharmacy 2 I only long on to submit my homework, no post necessary 

check out CCNE website. It is all there. the most recent accreditation meeting was this week. March 16-19. so the meet reviewing all programs seeking accreditation from this past fall and that ends tomorrow. From looking at past years it takes a month or 2 after the meeting to post results. With that said maybe they inform the actual school earlier than the posted results. We have a zoom meeting with Dr. Rogers scheduled this Saturday. All students invited. maybe this it what its about. we definitely should be hearing about accreditation soon. Finger crossed

Patiently waiting for this accreditation results!

I did check it out.. when we did our Immersion Weekend virtually, we had this big bang meeting with Dr. Rogers that said a bunch on nothing really.

Bottom line.. we are still waiting. Good news is that Cohort II, my cohort and a few others on this thread, are starting clinicals. We really wanted to know by now what we are dealing with before we invest time into clinicals..

 

so yeah results should still be posted a few weeks into Summer semester. I suggest doing what I and a lot other people did and not take clinical and instead took just pharm II and Advance health Assessment II you next semester. lightens work load so you can just focus on clinical and will give you an additional semester to hear accreditation results prior to starting clinical. The CCNE website is straightforward on their process if you look into it. good luck to everyone and finger crossed for everyone.
