Duke University School of Nursing - ABSN Fall 2025

Published

Hello! I made this group for anyone that is planning to apply for Duke's ABSN/pre-licensure nursing program for the Fall 2025 cohort. The application opens up on October 1st, so I just wanted to make this group now so we can all chat, support each other, and document our journey of applying and  (fingers crossed) getting accepted  🙂

I applied to one out of state and I was looking into Northeastern in Charlotte as well. I wish you the best of luck and that you get accepted into your top choice!

I did apply! I'm also a bit worried but I guess we'll see! The informational meeting said around February or march is when we'll know if we've been accepted.

I'm curious about how many applications they'll receive with this being a new program, and a lot of people not being familiar with masters entry programs
