• Hofstra Overall Hofstra’s program was challenging but rewarding. I felt prepared for my first position. All my preceptors were very knowledgeable and kind. - Alum
• Worth it The program itself was very difficult, especially while working full time. However, I did feel that I learned so much and I was extremely prepared for working after graduation. - Alum
• Specialty vs general They place you with preceptors, but every place has pros and cons. Some preceptors were too busy to teach, some sites were too slow to learn anything, it's a roll of the dice. You may have to make the most of it and interject yourself into being active for you to learn. I opted to hyper specialize in cardiology for my preceptorship. It was a very informative experience, however, not very applicable in real life. I would've been better off doing hospital medicine or even critical care, to better prepare me for my first job. - Alum
• Grateful for the education and training I received Working full-time while in the program is possible but you will get more out of the experience if you don't have to.Their vast network of Clinical preceptors helps students avoid the stress of having to find one on their own. Clinical rotation hours are more than what is required by the State and with other programs so you are better prepared for your role upon graduation. The program also ensured my ability to pass the certification exam the 1st time. - Alum
• Relevant, high quality education Case based learning with high yield patient cases and collaborative learning experiences. This program prepares students well to pass the board exam and feel confident in caring for patients immediately after graduation. - Alum
