Our MSN program allows you to easily continue into FNU’s thoughtfully designed DNP curriculum. Students who want to become a Certified Nurse-Midwife or Nurse Practitioner will be admitted to the MSN program. After receiving your MSN, you have the option to continue on to complete the DNP program (21 credit hours) via a direct admission process. Or, you may choose to exit at that time and return later to complete the DNP degree.
