Duke University's online FNP program, Fall 2014

Published

Hello fellow nurses!

I was wondering if anyone applied for Duke University's online FNP program, Fall 2014. For those that are currently attending, how long did it take to hear back from admissions?

Also, would you mind sharing info on the program? For example, numbers of hours put in weekly for part-time attendance. I realize this may vary on the particular student, but an idea will be helpful.

Thank you kindly!

Jayne

p.s. Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Thank you Lancermav. Silva- I hope we will still have a chance. I wonder what the statistics are. The directions were not very clear about how they contact us or what we can expect.

I called and was told if we don't hear anything by April 1st then it's a no.

I can't even tell you how bummed I am.

:'(

Hi all! Wishing all of you the absolute best!! Hope you hear GREAT news soon!

I am sorry to hear about your status too Silva. My heart sank too and I'm at the airport waiting for my flight to board an hour from now. I have been having some trouble connecting to my network and the "free wi-fi" here and I missed a call from the admissions specialist informing me that my decision was available on Self-Service. I was frantically trying to see, and my page did not have any new notifications or anything, so I called her and left a message telling her this and I received an automated call back from her apologizing for the premature call and that there was not a decision for me available yet. Could you ladies tell me how your self-service looked? Was there a link under your new notifications or did it show on your application material status/review tab? I really hope the best for you two. Do you ladies have other schools you are waiting to hear from?

Right where those financial aid boxes were there was a green box with view decision and respond to offer. Clicked that and took me to the letter. Oh I hope that's good news for you!!! Need some positivity today lol

This was my one and only. I'm waiting it out until April and going into counseling if it's a no.

...to clarify, a graduate counseling program, not as in needing professional help lol...although I am in a depression after today! ;)

I am so very sorry to hear that some of you did not get accepted. :down: Tom, I was accepted to the distance, FT FNP MSN program and my Self-Service has the same list we always see to the right and under Review Financial Aid there is View Decision. This takes me to the acceptance letter. Again, I am very sorry Silva and Jayne and mkrist, but I do know they have accepted students in the past that were on the wait list. I wish the absolute best for you!!!

Glad to hear you got in! Wish you success! :)

Thanks for the info Jules and a huge congrats! I hope no news is good news and not bad news. My plane is about to take off from Chicago and back to SoCal. I'll see if there is any more good news from you all after I land.

Tom,

I believe you are going for the DNP and in the past that decision has taken longer. Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!

Wishing you a safe flight. You live kind of close....I am in Oregon.

Awesome that you got in!! Whoo hoo! Its kinda weird.. there is no decision on my page yet. All that is there is an orange triangle (Review Financial Aid To-Do Items) stating "To Do - financial Aid".

Do you guys see the same message? Must be boo-boo.
