Does anyone know if there is a FB page that gets started by the school or should we create one?

The program director will make a facebook page!

Has anyone responded to the letter and paid their fee to reserve the spot? Also - when is Duke Days this year?

I paid the deposit yesterday! Duke was the only school I had applied to and was planning on applying to more programs this Summer but Duke is my first choice. Therefore, I won’t be applying to other programs!

Also I haven’t hear anything about Duke days... hopefully we will know soon.

there are three main loan repayment/ tuition assistance programs for duke employees and duke alumni nurses that I've researched and I'm leaning towards that because pediatric nurse practitioner is my dreammmm and duke is like a complete package for me esp with them paying so much money towards your man its crazy. do you know what the total tuition is looking like?

That is what I was I thinking too! I wonder how many folks ended up dropping out after attending Duke Days! I heard they go over this with you. Additionally, is anyone planning of working while going to school for supplemental income?

Could you please share this information on the loan repayment/tuition assistance programs? My long term goal is to become an FNP ?

I'm not sure how many people drop out after Duke Days. But, I would imagine it would be due to financial reasons. Duke isn't cheap whatsoever, but from what I have read it is worth every penny because the education is top notch!

If anyone finds out when Duke Days is, please let me know!

Hi guys! I was just accepted yesterday, I am so so excited! Is there a facebook group or any sort of admit group already? Curious if I could start speaking to anyone else who will be attending in the Spring ?
