• Review I did not feel that the program prepared me for my certification exam nor did I feel prepared starting my first job as a nurse practitioner. I think we had to teach ourselves a lot and I wish the program would have had more hands on and face to face interactions for a better learning experience. I feel like instructors focused a lot on little mundane things that had nothing to do with actual patient care. It was also extremely stressful finding your own preceptors each semester. - Alum
• Great Experience! I continued to work full-time as a school nurse - I found all of my own preceptors - I would go in after school and then I did drive 2.5 hours away from my home to do clinicals on weekends. - Alum
• Good Program The workload was manageable, but definitely required strong time management skills and dedication. I was able to continue working full time throughout the program, but I was in school part time. I secured my own preceptorship, which was free, so I really can't comment on the school's help in this area. Overall I think this program provided me with a solid education and good preparation for certification and practice. - Alum
• Excellent Life Choice I chose USA for the ease of applying (just 1 essay, no letters). The program itself was rigorous but thorough. I do wish there was more guidance on "passing boards" and "your first year of practice." - Alum
• USA CPNP-PC program I appreciated the flexibility with coursework, which allowed me to maintain part-time status of my RN job. I wish there had been more support with securing preceptorships and more live or recorded lectures vs sending the powerpoints to review on our own. - Alum
