Program Requirements
In accordance with the 2016 Criteria for Evaluation of Nurse Practitioner Programs, applicants who hold a graduate degree in nursing can apply to the FNP Post-Graduate Certificate program where previous education and practice (as applicable) will be used to determine an individual course of study. The FNP Director will complete a Gap Analysis to evaluate prior education and experience in order to determine an individual course of study. The completion of required didactic courses and clinical hours will depend upon waived credits and/or clinical hours. Depending upon the number of courses transferred in, the student may complete the Certification as a Family Nurse Practitioner in one year. Students must satisfy the required credit and course requirements for the FNP Program of study via graduate courses taken at DeSales University. Post-Graduate Certificate graduates are eligible to sit for the FNP national certification examination offered through the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) or American Association of Nurse Practitioners (AANP).
