Hello!
I haven't seen any threads yet about Duke's ABSN program for Spring of 2018 so I thought I would start one to chat with other hopefuls like myself!
Also, if anyone who has previously been accepted into the program, any and all advice would be greatly appreciated! For now, I have a few questions:
- Does anyone know if they weigh all parts of the application equally?
- What is their acceptance rate?
- Any good tips for the personal statements? I'm finding that it's very difficult to articulate why I want to be a nurse without sounding cheesy.
- Where else are y'all applying?
I think that's all for now! I look forward to chatting with everyone!
Hello all! I just received my invite as well. I'm quite excited considering this is my second time applying. I applied for the fall semester but was waitlisted. They apparently had an enormous amount of applicants for fall since Duke was voted the number one school for the absn program this year. They didn't even have enough space for the waitlisted people of go to duke days or at least that's what was said. Nora emailed me some time after I was waitlisted and told me I had a good chance for the spring semester, so I'm assuming there were less applicants? Anyways, I just wanted to say hi! Can't wait to meet you guys at Duke days!
Hey everyone! I was also invited to Duke Days! I applied for the fall cohort, but I was waitlisted, and encouraged to reapply. FYI, everyone invited to Duke Days is NOT accepted, some people are still waitlisted. I was waitlisted for the fall and wasn't even invited to Duke Days last go!

But! Don't get discouraged if you did not get an invite. I didn't get an invite last application round due to space limitations and I still got waitlisted
