@babynurse2018thank you for starting this thread. I applied to the distance ABSN and waiting for a decision. I would like to know how your experience was and if you can give me insight as to how your 2nd and 3rd semester of clinicals were. I looked at the plan of study, and per semester, it is broken down into 2 (session 1 and session 2). Does that mean Session 1 means all didactic/lecture and session 2 is all clinicals? I wanted to know so I can plan ahead just in case!

Thank you, much appreciated!

How was the program. What was the outline of the courses? Were you able to engage with other students?

Hey, I was wondering if you could share some of your insights regarding the program? For some reason, I cannot send private messages. Thanks

The Emory DABSN program is not worth the price tag. My advice is to find a more affordable (accredited) program. Nursing school doesn't prepare you to be a nurse. It prepares you to take the NCLEX, and you learn how to be a nurse on the job. Emory won't make you better prepared -- it will just take more of your money. I was honestly less prepared than people from less prestigious programs because the DABSN program doesn't let you see the specialties. They make you do all of your clinicals in med-surg because it's easier for them to arrange. They say that if you can do med-surg, you can do anything. That's just not true or helpful to people trying to find their niche in the nursing world. It also makes it very difficult to get a job in a specialty after graduating because you won't have any experience -- I graduated without stepping foot in an ICU or ER. And don't expect this program to be flexible if you have childcare needs.
