I’m incredibly grateful for the clinical opportunities provided throughout the Family Nurse Practitioner program. The preceptors I was matched with were a great fit for both my personality and learning style. Their warmth and welcoming nature created an environment where I could grow and build confidence as a future provider.
The FNP faculty were truly inspiring, offering support that extended far beyond academics. Their teaching prepared us not only to succeed in our studies, but also to grow into compassionate, well-rounded providers. From the hands-on skills developed during intensives to the challenging exams that pushed us to our limits, every aspect of the program felt thoughtfully designed to help us thrive. I’m thankful for the strong emphasis on patient-centered care and the high-quality education I received.
