  Admissions Requirements

  The DNP program is targeted to outstanding registered nurses with critical care experience who possess a baccalaureate degree. Requirements include:

  1. Graduation from an accredited (ACEN or CCNE) nursing program.
  2. Baccalaureate or master’s degree in Nursing.
  3. Minimum of one-year recent experience (within the last five years) as a professional registered nurse in a critical care area in the United States, in which the applicant has had the opportunity to develop as an independent decision maker, demonstrate psychomotor skills and the ability to use and interpret advanced monitoring techniques. Direct patient contact is required.
     1. The requirement for critical care is that you have experience as a registered nurse in a critical care area, with emphasis placed on invasive hemodynamic monitoring, ventilatory care and pharmacologic management. The preferred areas are: Surgical Intensive Care (SICU), Medical Intensive Care (MICU), Cardiovascular Intensive Care (CVICU), Cardiac Intensive Care (CICU), Pediatric or Neonatal Intensive Care (PICU/NICU). Additionally, experience in the Emergency Department (ED) has proven sufficient provided the applicant has gained experience with invasive monitoring, ventilators and critical care pharmacology that could be attained in a level 1 or 2 trauma designated facility caring for complex patient conditions.
  4. Professional/academic competency attested by three letters of recommendation submitted directly to the program by the recommender.
     1. Have the online recommendations filled out by an academic reference (e.g. a professor in your BSN program), your current immediate supervisor (charge nurse or nurse manager) in critical care, and a colleague who is a CRNA, physician or RN, and is familiar with your critical care skills.
     2. For nurse managers and colleague recommendations: We are interested in an assessment of the applicant's critical care nursing skills, personal characteristics (maturity and readiness for a difficult program of study), and degree of professional development as a registered nurse.
     3. For nursing school, academic references: We are interested in whether the applicant is recommended for further study as a graduate student.
  5. A minimum undergraduate cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or above.
  6. Undergraduate coursework: Transcripts should reflect one undergraduate course taken within the 10 years prior to the semester of intended enrollment, with a grade of B or above, in: anatomy and physiology and chemistry (2 semesters, i.e. general and organic, or “general chemistry 1 and 2” as a sequence).
  7. Submission of a professional autobiography delineating personal goals of graduate study.
  8. Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) certification.
  9. Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) certification.
  10. Current unencumbered licensure as a professional registered nurse in Michigan, or ability to obtain the same.
  11. Applicants must demonstrate that they can meet the technical standards published in our handbook, and complete the application process as directed here including filling out and signing the Statement of Accuracy form.

  Note:

  • We do not require the Graduate Record Exam (GRE).
  • We expect that applicants will shadow a CRNA during the application process (prior to interview) to learn more about the specialty and help them determine if nurse anesthesia suits them.
  • Once accepted, enrollment is contingent on successfully passing a health and drug screening as well as a criminal background check, and remaining in critical care until enrollment. Policy and forms for criminal background check and drug screening are on the website.

  Curriculum Plan

  The 85 credits are taken in 36 months. Doctoral Core Courses are all those taken in Year 1 (except BIO 7420/7440), NUR 7300, & the Doctoral Project courses (ANE 7800, 7900, 7920).

  • In the first 12 months of the curriculum, the student takes 9-10 credits per term and has no clinical component. It may be realistic for some students to remain employed (part-time or perhaps more) during this period. How many hours you can continue to be employed depends on your energy level, family responsibilities, and how well you are doing in the classroom.
  • In years two and three, the student has more intense clinical and classroom commitment. The time commitment is 60 or more hours per week year-round. It is suggested that students will do better without any outside work responsibilities in view of the demands of the clinical area, board preparation, and the scholarly project.
