• Great School U of L nursing program secured my preceptor experiences for me. They all turned out to be excellent for my development as a Family Nurse Practitioner. Meeting clinical hours was not a problem for me. My preceptors were some of the best and most experienced, they were awesome! - Alum
• Excellent program I gained valuable knowledge which has allowed me to be successful in my career. I would not hesitate to recommend UofL to those pursuing a degree as a nurse practitioner. It prepared me for the certification exam and for clinical practice. - Alum
• Preparing to practice as an NP I graduated several years ago. The classes prepared me well for my first job. The site that I worked with was actually seeking a women’s health nurse practitioner so they reached out to the school and the school coordinated that with me. That led into a job that I kept for over 22 years until retirement. During my preceptorship, I was not working. - Alum
• MSN Program It was a good experience. My only complaint was that you had to find your own preceptor as they did not have enough preceptors available. That was several years ago, things may have changed since then. - Alum
• Preparation Overall, I’m glad I chose UofL. Their assistance in fining a preceptor was fantastic. The instructor’s were very responsive to questions or concerns. However, my acute care classes focused solely on critical care which did not prepare me well for certification. I did pass the first time but only because I paid out of pocket for a review course prior to sitting for my certification. Also, I’m a Hospitalist NP that doesn’t work in critical care. Acute care NP’s are not used solely in the ICU. The classes should be more diverse in their coverage beyond critical illnesses. - Alum
