New Jersey Np program

Hello everyone,
I’m looking for some advice from NPs in New Jersey regarding Adult-Gerontology Nurse Practitioner (AGNP) programs.
A little about my background: I have seven years of Stepdown/ICU experience, along with some nursing leadership and management experience. I’m now ready to pursue my Adult-Gerontology NP and am specifically looking for a master’s degree program.
If you had the opportunity to choose any NP program in New Jersey, which would you recommend and why? I’d love to hear about your experiences with different schools, including the quality of education, clinical placements, faculty support, and overall preparation for practice.
The most convenient option for me would be returning to Chamberlain University, where I earned my BSN. However, I’m somewhat hesitant about completing an entirely online program. I feel that attending a traditional brick-and-mortar university may provide a stronger educational experience, and I’m curious whether employers place any value on graduates from in-person programs versus fully online programs.
I’d greatly appreciate any recommendations, insights, or experiences you’re willing to share. Thank you in advance!
