Emory ABSN/MSN 2016 Program

Published

Hi everyone,

I thought I would get a thread started for the Emory ABSN/MSN 2016 application cycle. I am going to the information session next Friday, July 24th for the program.

Has anyone else started to get ready for this application cycle?

Has anyone else still not heard anything at all? I applied January 14th and was told I should hear a decision in a few weeks, but still haven't heard a thing. I know admissions decisions can take awhile to go through, I'm just getting a little anxious waiting to find out

I applied on February 21. I received an update yesterday letting me know that I had been placed on the wait list.

I also received word yesterday that I was placed on the waitlist. Hoping for a miracle! I think a student release form is due on April 1st for those students who are accepted. And May 13th is when mandatory orientation takes place. So we are sure to hear soon about whether or not we are taken off the waitlist for better or worse.

Yeah about an hour after I posted that I got an email that I have also been placed on the waitlist

I've been waitlisted here too. With Emory starting so soon, I'm really nervous about not knowing yet. It would be a major cross country move for me.

Hello! I was just accepted into this program and would like to get any information. Are there any current or recent grads on this thread?

I am currently in the program. I already had my BSN, and started this past Fall. I am neonatal, but spend a lot of time with the other specialties. I can try to help answer some questions for those of you that have some... i know when I was applying/waiting/agonizing over cost I wished I had someone to answer my million questions...

In your class, are there students that were wait listed and then accepted? If so, approximately how many?

I have still not heard anything. I applied on January 28th. When I called a few weeks ago they told me they have not reviewed my application yet.

Hi Bdero87

I'm very interested in the NNP program at Emory. Can you provide some additional details about the program? What are your classes like, are you studying more medical based Physiology/Pathophysiology processes and diseases instead of just theory? How are the clinical sites and placements? Do you think the clinical hours are adequate to becoming a future NNP?

Let me just state that though I am currently not a RN, I have personal and first hand experience within a NICU. So in my quest to become a RN, this is one specialty that is under consideration.

Got my interview email today for FNP fall 2016. :) I applied on January 28th and this is the first time I've heard from them. Hang in there guys!

I LOVE the NNP program. I seriously cannot speak highly enough about it. It is intense, a LOT of medical based study. But you must have a minimum of two years NICU RN full time experience in order to be admitted, and the experience is really needed in order to do well in the program. It is very intense, and fast paced. We get a TON of clinical hours, so i feel like I will be as well prepared as I can be when i graduate, but still know I will be a novice practitioner.

I know that several were waitlisted at one point, but as for how many I do not know.
