Post master's doctorate
My plan for this education was to propel me into either an academic position or a hospital leadership position. Academia positions salary were too low so I ruled them out. I was already in a leadership position and did not advance further due to the paternalistic organization I was working for. There are still many barriers to advance in leadership in a hospital with physicians feeling threatened by APNs competing for their roles.

Preceptors
SU obtained my OB/GYN preceptor, and she was amazing. I obtained my own peds, family practice preceptors as I had some experience as a nurse in the area. Personal life was hard at the time of the program and educators were so supportive. A very good experience for me.

FNP training is adequate
Appreciate the quality of professors teaching all classes, the clinical placement experiences and the affordability of tuition through various scholarships available.

early 2010s grad
I graduated over a decade ago, the program has changed since then, but I felt I was as adequately prepared as I could be from the APNI program. I had to learn a lot about diagnosing after graduation, also learned the basics of pharmacology but I think the program is much more rigorous these days. Despite the ranking I feel it is better than UW at preparing PMHNPs.

Expensive, but good quality.
Very expensive and you have alot of politics to deal with. Overall the faculty actually expected all of us to do well and really learn the material. I felt set up for success and am proud to say I graduated from this program.
However, the politics/ethical issues are real. So many lies were told and we were often gaslight by upper administrators. Bullying by administrators often occurred to those who tried to speak out against wrongdoing. We were lied to/promised several things that never came to fruition, which caused a lot of animosity.
