There is a Facebook page that was created in August for the entire cohort so not specific to midwifery. Emory ABSN+ MSN Summer 2020

Hello all ?. I was hoping to get some realistic feedback about the program while we wait for Admitted Students Day. I am specifically interested in the transition between the ABSN and MSN. If you are in good academic standing, can you immediately continue full time coursework without trouble? Or is there a mandatory break and reapplication of some sort?

Has anyone heard about financial aid? Does anyone know usually what they deem "need based" and/or "merit based"?

Hi I am wondering would it be too late for me to apply for the ABSN program now? I didn't see a definite deadline for ABSN program.. It looks like a rolling admission to me. But I am not sure.

Those who were accepted, did you have all your prereqs complete? I applied because the info page said we could have them in progress during the application because we just need to finish them before the program start date. They updated the checklist page and checked off the prereqs I completed, but kept the X on the two I'm currently taking. It's making me nervous cause the checklist isn't all green!

I was accepted and had several prerequisites to complete at that time. I was told as long as they are completed before the start of the program you can apply without having them all done.

Does anyone know when we find out how much financial aid we get? I think it’s some time in January but I can’t remember

A few weeks ago, I met with the program’s financial aid adviser who went over detailed information in spreadsheet form. She said it was also on the website. But with the maximum amount of federal aid used, which most people get and get the same amount, the entire dual program is approximately $175-$180,000. I don’t remember the exact number and this was without textbooks, uniforms, parking, etc.

Did you pay the tuition deposit yet? Everything seems to get rolling once that's paid for. I got my financial aid estimate a week after I paid the deposit.

Fair warning though: I wish the school did more to help us financially for this program. The first time undergrads get a loan cap grant, why can't we?
