Additionally, healthcare agencies in rural settings are challenged to recruit and retain primary care providers, increasing the disparity of health care access for rural patient populations. The UW School of Nursing in partnership with the Premera Foundation is addressing the urgent need to improve access and health outcomes for rural populations by developing a two-tier pipeline of primary care in rural Washington state.
Recent ARNP graduates exploring employment opportunities to serve rural communities within Washington state are invited to apply for a month fellowship program designed to increase professional competency and confidence in the clinical setting. Partnerships between healthcare organizations and UW Premera Rural Nursing Health Initiative will offer a unique fellowship experience of programmatic expertise, academic excellence, and a robust professional network throughout Washington state.
Thank you to MolinaCares who has given us funding to expand access to behavioral health across Washington. With almost four million RNs — the largest segment of the US healthcare workforce — nurses are ideally positioned to lead dementia care transformation. Under the leadership of Dr. A new state-funded program will launch in January that partners with local long-term care facilities to address the ongoing staffing crisis.

On-campus meetings are required for all clinical track courses—their frequency varies based on where you are in the program plan. These in-person class meetings offer dynamic discussions and case studies, as well as the opportunity to get to know your classmates and professors.
As part of the DNP program, Post-BS students complete a minimum of 1, practicum hours: hours in clinical practice and hours in clinical leadership. Post-MS students complete a minimum of hours in clinical leadership. All clinical placements are arranged by the School of Nursing, taking advantage of established academic partnerships with major health care systems across Wisconsin.
We do our best to honor student requests to complete clinicals near their home community or another site of interest, provided the site meets the requirements for the course and a qualified preceptor is available.
Requirements are met through a combination of coursework, a scholarly project, and supervised clinical hours. The Post-BS option requires a minimum of 71 credits 68 in program plan plus 3-credit graduate statistics requirement. They are able to waive up to 18 credits based on previous graduate coursework. Note: Whether three- or four-year, most students reduce work hours when completing their clinical courses.
Students interested in dual preparation as an advanced practice nurse and nurse educator may add a nine-credit nursing education focus. Each academic program at UW-Madison has student learning outcomes that describe what students are expected to know or be able to do upon completion of the program. The project uses evidence to improve either practice or patient outcomes and may take the form of a program evaluation, program development proposal, or quality improvement project.
Students develop their scholarly project over three semesters to produce a paper of publishable quality and deliver an oral presentation to faculty, students, and the community. DNP students pay a differential tuition. Rates are subject to change by term. Graduate students in the School of Nursing have access to traineeships, fellowships, scholarships, loans, and research and teaching assistantship positions that may come with full tuition remission.
The majority of funding decisions are made in the Spring for the following academic year. All students are encouraged to apply for funding. The faculty admissions committee will review applications once each year for fall admission. For the purposes of application review, unofficial transcripts may be uploaded directly to the application. Official records will be requested by the Graduate School for all candidates who are recommended for admission. Applicants may only apply to one specialty track and must indicate whether or not they intend to follow the three- or four-year program plan as part of the application.
Requests to switch population focus areas after starting the program are only seldom possible and considered on a case by case basis. After an initial application review, eligible applicants will be invited for an interview in mid-January through late-February. All applicants must participate in an interview in order to be considered for this program. Interview dates and times will be assigned by the School of Nursing.
