VA NP Residencies / Resedency

Published

I’d love to start a thread with those who were accepted and/or not accepted to the VA NP residency programs. I graduate from a post master’s PMHNP program in ‘22 and would love to hear how competitive they are before spending the time and money applying and preparing to uproot my family for one. I already have a RN license in the 3 programs I’ll be applying to and I’m a combat veteran with prior experience working with the VA as a RN  

  1. Did you have your DNP vs MSN?
  2. What did your work experience look like prior?
  3. Are you prior service or a combat veteran?
  4. What do you feel like gave you the competitive edge? Essay? GPA? Prior experience?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone have any insight on this topic? TIA!
