Duke ABSN Fall 2021

[peanutNC]

Hi everyone!

I read through posts from previous DUSON ABSN cycles while completing my application and they were very helpful, but I noticed there were no new posts for the current application cycle, so I thought I'd start one.

Just submitted my application and am super nervous!

Anyone else here apply? Let's be antsy together! ?

Ahh really? I heard from them this evening around 6 o clock

It was 4 p.m. for me.  I'm mountain time.

So excited to start in a few months ? Also super nervous!  Could any current students talk about the difficulty of the program?  Is it like a 24/7, no sleep kind of hard, or have you found it fairly manageable?  Thanks!

Has everybody already gotten grant and financial aid info?  I never received an email.

It’s hard to say... Here’s why. We don’t know if we’re going to be in-person in the fall but I’d say there’s a good chance we’ll be more in-person than we are now. Right now, I personally don’t find it difficult to balance everything because we can roll out of bed and log into class and have a lot of ‘free time’ to study and review because of how they’ve reworked with covid.

I would look at your dukehub.duke.edu profile. That's where I found my financial aid info. I reached out to them and they let me know that we'll receive another email from them in May about how the process works and setting us up with one of their financial aid counselors. For now, I was just asked to wait.

I wish they would have sent a message  to our personal emails with that info. When I reached out to ask why I hadn’t gotten any info, they told me to check my Duke email but didn’t offer any info on how to do that. Maybe the site was listed in something else we received, and I must’ve missed it. A great resource! Thank you!

Nothing yet.

I feel ridiculous for asking this, but does anyone know how to check Duke email/get into their email?

If you got the email with the netID and you made your password. I just googled Duke email and the sign in link for the outlook came up and I just logged in that way.

So weird that I asked this question today because I just got an unsolicited email from the student services coordinator answering this question at like 6:45pm! Thank you, your instructions worked too.
