Duke and UNC MSN hopefuls Fall 2015

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

Hi everyone!

Has anyone else applied for their MSN at Duke or UNC for Fall 2015 matriculation. I specifically applied for the Nursing Education program, but would love replies from anyone who has applied!

Does anyone have any idea when when we will be hearing from either school. I am new to this entire process!

Thanks for the replies!

Whitney

I applied to Dukes msn nnp. I am not sure when the school is planning to contact students, I think it may depend on what specific program you applied for.

I applied at UNC for Fall 2015! Pediatric specialty. I've read some old posts and I think last year they received decisions around May. And I know UNCs application website says MSN decisions will be out early May due to volume of applicants. So here's to only 5 months more of waiting?!

Too long... If you don't mind me asking, where do you work?.

I'm currently living in another state but would relocate if I got accepted. I'm a little worried about finding a job.

I actually work at Duke. How many years of experience do you have and in what clinical area?? Duke is not too difficult to find a job if you aren't overly picky.

I work in pediatrics now. 1.5 years of experience (2 years by the time I would move there).

Finding pediatric jobs is always more complicated than adult world because theres usually such a smaller need, but since I'm going for peds specialty I don't really have any other option. The experience is so important.

Sweet!! I haven't applied yet. I'm going to start looking next month and March. I will probably take you up on your offer around then.

Random ??, will the Duke education benefits pay for UNC classes? I decided against applying to Duke so i've been under the impression that if I want tuition reimbursement that I would have to work at UNC?
