UVM DEPN (Direct Entry Program in Nursing)

UVM used to have the MEPN which is now the DEPN program. What is the difference between the two. I was accepted into the DEPN program and selected the AGNP (Adult Gerontology Nurse Practitioner (AGNP) track. If later I wanted to include another specialty such as the FNP or someday the PMHN, I could always go back to school and complete the necessary requirements, correct? I want to get some experience for a few years, see what I like, and then decide.

Comments or Feedback appreciated.

So the current DEPN/DPN is not accredited. So technically, if the site visit or accreditation process isn't complete by graduation, then the degree is not accredited, correct? When is the close of the completion of the first cohort for DEPN students? 2017 or 2018?

Hi, I also applied recently for the 2016 cohort..did you end up doing so? I'd love to share our experience/start a new feed for 2016.

Thanks,

Hi,

I applied for the DEPN program for Fall 2016, and am wondering if anyone has heard back yet?

Thanks!

Have you heard back?

What did you decide? I'm curious about your experience if you chose UVM...

Have you received a response yet? Did you apply for FNP or DENP?

Hello all! I was accepted into the program Fall of 2015 but was sadly unable to start. Hope to start this Fall! Has anyone from the class that started Fall 2015 have any feedback about the classes? How the teachers are? Hows are the assignment and tests? Thank you!
