Hi! I graduated from the DABSN program in 2021.

If anyone has any questions I'd be happy to answer them ?

Hi, what advice would you give to the next DABSN cohort for how to succeed in the program?

The biggest things I would say is make sure you stay organized and on top of things. The program moves very fast and a lot of topics build on themselves.

If you are ever stuck on a concept and do not understand something, ask for help sooner rather than later. 

On the first few days of your classes I would recommend reaching out to a few classmates and see who you think would study well with you and you can form your own study group. It's helpful to have peers that can help answer your questions and you can quiz each other before exams ?

Feel free to reach out with any other questions!

Pre-nursing students, 

I highly recommend you rethink before doing Emory DABSN. I am graduating, and I would never recommend this program to anyone. This program is the most unorganized and unprofessional program there is for 80k. #2 nursing program in the country? Please. Do not attend this program if you are looking to be supported during nursing school. The director, faculty, and staff are the most unhelpful and disorganized people. I regret being a part of this program and wish I had someone to tell me to not waste my time. Sure you get done in 11 months but if you don't want to go through hell and back I would not recommend this. They preach on "advocating for yourself" but get mad and retaliate against you when you do. They say they will offer support, but never do. You will not be in any other clinicals than Med Surg. So you have to fight to get a job in other areas because hospitals will be hesitant to hire you if you have no experience. The whole program is full of constant stress and false promises. Beware

It is possible to work part-time, but full time might be a bit of a challenge.
