Emory has a MASTERS program starting in August for NON-NURSING bachelor degree holders. You DO NOT have to hold a BSN for this program (MN). I was just throwing this out there since its a new program. It is kind of confusing and new!

Thanks for bringing it to our attention, but the ABSN + MSN honestly sounds more secure. The MN program says they're still pending approval, and it looks like it'll only give you an RN. I'm aiming for DNP, so having the BSN to back me up is valuable to me. They're also letting me skip some graduate classes since I already have an MPH and go straight towards the DNP after the BSN instead of the MSN.

But if they do any nice incentives for the MN program like they do for the InEmory BSN, that could be another story ?

Hey guys! I recently discovered the class size was 120 after attending admitted students day. Just curious if anyone knows or heard how many applicants there were for the AMSN program? Thanks!

Hey All!

I love the idea of this program! How long is it to complete It?

30 months on total! 15 months for absn and 15 months for the MSN(NP). If you are doing Primary care you can go straight through. If you are doing acute care/ in patient then you have to stop at the BSN get experience as a RN for a year then move on to the MSN

Hello- I applied to the MSN program at Emory and want to do ACNP or anesthesia. Kinda torn between the two. Got waitlisted. We’ll see what happens...

Do you think it’s wise to do the ABSN+MSN or MN+ MSN for someone already having a bachelor’s degree? My ultimate goal is acute peds care (NNP or PICU). I’m also thinking about costs as well. Decisions, choices.... I really don’t know which route now with this new MN Degree thrown into the mix

I think they may get rid of the ABSN+MSN and change it to the MN+MSN since its essentially the same thing.

OK. I will wait and see. Hopefully if they decide to do the open house later this fall the new program/structure will be complete or announced.
