Duke ABSN Spring 2015

U.S.A. North Carolina

Published

Anyone else applying to Duke's ABSN program for Spring 2015? As we're approaching the application deadline, I thought it would be great to get a conversation started. If anyone is currently in the program, I would love to hear your thoughts about the program as well.

I don't think duke is rolling.

All of you Duke SON students, I just got waitlisted for Fall 15. How many of your cohort were accepted from off the waitlist? Anyone know how long it is? Thanks!!!

Congrats on getting on the waitlist! That alone is a huge accomplishment and I want to stress that.

I think there are 3-4 individuals in my cohort who had been waitlisted. There were MANY in the previous cohort who made it in from the waitlist. Many turn down Duke primarily due to the financial burden. Good luck!

Thanks homelife! Do you happen to know when those who were on the waitlist were notified that they were accepted?

How have you liked the program?

Hey Duke students!

I need your help!

I was just accepted into Duke's program and have a week to decide what to do ( I was on the waitlist). EEK! I was also planning on applying to UNCs ABSN program for Spring 16 but I am trying to decide whether to accept Duke be done with it! I really just want the program that will best meet my needs. I realize both UNC and DUke are awesome and I may just be over thinking it all.

I am trying to get students opinions on Duke's program. Do you love Duke? Do you regret your decision to go there? What were the best parts of the program? I am very interested in doing one of their Global immersion experiences and know that not everyone gets to do it and that you have to apply. At UNC it sounds like if you want to have one of these immersion experiences you can and that there are several more opportunities. My career goal is to work in global maternal health, so that experience is important to me.

It seems that SO many don't go with Duke because of the money but I am trying to put the $$$ aside and compare just the programs. Any pros and cons to the program would be very much appreciated!

Thank you!

If you would rather email me that would be great.
