Madonna University’s Nurse Practitioner (NP) program is uniquely grounded in Catholic and Felician Franciscan values, emphasizing respect for the dignity of each person, social justice, and a commitment to service. These values are integrated throughout the curriculum, fostering ethical, compassionate care and preparing students to lead with purpose in diverse healthcare settings. The program’s mission-driven approach, small cohort sizes, and accessible faculty create a supportive learning environment where students receive personalized guidance throughout their academic journey. Courses are offered in a variety of teaching modes–including hybrid, on-ground, and online–to meet the needs of diverse learners, especially those balancing work and family commitments.
What truly sets Madonna apart are its dual-track NP options. Students can pair the Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (AGACNP) tracks, or combine the new Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) track with either FNP or Adult-Gerontology Primary Care NP. These options prepare graduates to pursue certification in more than one specialty, significantly expanding their career flexibility. The plans of study are thoughtfully designed to accommodate full-time working parents without sacrificing academic rigor. In addition, Madonna provides dedicated assistance with clinical placements, ensuring that no student ever begins clinicals without a secured preceptor, further supporting student success from start to finish.
