• ACNP-BC with post masters in Nursing Education University of Cincinnati Nursing has a highly competitive, technologically savvy program. At the time I went through the NP program we were started graduate courses in the same group as the PhD, and CRNA candidates. The curriculum was cutting edge, it included genetics and IT, cultural immersion components, and the clinical sites were top notch. I cannot say enough good about the professors. They were approachable, and highly esteemed in the collegiate arena. I really gained a life long love of learning at UC. I started in the RN to BSN program and finished there with a MSN. Passed the acute care NP cert exam first try! Eventually, I went on for a DNP. Thank you for maintaining the integrity and academic rigor necessary for producing highly functional NPs. - Alum
• Online It was hard doing a full online program, but it was easier my work life balance. - Alum
• University of Cincinnati Pros: it’s an online program so you can stay home and study Cons: they don’t provide you preceptors so you have to find a preceptor yourself. I could not find any preceptors in Columbus Ohio so I ended up paying a company called Preceptor Point to help me find a preceptor ($2000). - Alum
• Can do full time and work; if you don’t have kids I did the program and worked full time, I was only able to do this because I did not have kids. No way could I have done school and work full time with children. They did not help secure preceptors, but my program was online only and not local. - Alum
• Good program overall This was a good program overall and I was prepared for practice. Students found their own preceptors; I was lucky to have already known contacts for most of it but I did end up having to extend graduation one semester as I had a hard time getting required geriatric hours in. - Alum
