Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

Students with an MSN degree from another accredited university may need to complete a total of 42 to 52 credits and 540 to 1,000 total practicum hours to earn a DNP degree. Upon request, MSN transcripts can be evaluated for potential transfer of credits to minimize the number of credits required to complete the degree. The number of practicum hours required will be determined by the number of practicum hours completed in the MSN program.
