Anyone have any feedback on Vanderbilts ACNP program? I can't seem to get a straight answer as to whether or not they hold students responsible for their clinical placement or if they assist at all. Also, any general feedback about the program would be appreciated.

Will you be moving to the middle TN area? It is my understanding they do provide clinical placements in the area. I'm not certain what they do if you stay in your current location.
As far as the AG-ACNP program, it is #2 in the country. I personally know several who have graduated from it and feel they got an excellent, rigorous education.
I would if necessary. But I can't imagine cold calling and begging for clinical placements.
I just posted my own question about this bc I got a weird answer from the admissions office in this regard. They also referred me to their website, which was just as vague as their answer. I can hardly believe they wouldn't secure preceptors anymore. But now I'm wondering.
Yeah, I got an odd answer from them as well. For 1500 + a per credit hour? No thank you.
