Got accepted too! But I already accepted admission into UCLA (deadline was yesterday). I wish Duke didn’t send out decisions so late! I’m still curious to know what the admissions statistics is...if anyone finds out please post. ?

For those of you still deciding between good schools, I would go with the cheaper option. Take it from someone who has paid back undergraduate and graduate school loans! I know nurses who went to less prestigious schools who are working at some of the top hospitals. At the end of the day, it’s still the same degree (and your wallet will thank you).

Got in too. But going with Miami. Program starts in may and is 12 months. So I will finish quicker for half the price. No brainer

Yes, I actually really wanted to apply there but didn't want to pay for another expensive class to take their genetics requirement! I spoke to a clinical researcher recently who works a lot on their campus and he said it is a good program. Not to mention, there is a Portland campus (affordable cost of living)! I don't know their ranking for an accelerated bachelors but consider their grad school ranking. ? https://www.ohsu.edu/xd/education/schools/school-of-nursing/about/news-events/2018-us-news-rankings.cfm

Congrats! When did you hear from them? I am still waiting on them...and YES their program cost is so much cheaper than Duke. No brainer for sure.
