Duke ABSN Spring 2018

U.S.A. North Carolina

Published

Hello!

I haven't seen any threads yet about Duke's ABSN program for Spring of 2018 so I thought I would start one to chat with other hopefuls like myself!

Also, if anyone who has previously been accepted into the program, any and all advice would be greatly appreciated! For now, I have a few questions:

- Does anyone know if they weigh all parts of the application equally?

- What is their acceptance rate?

- Any good tips for the personal statements? I'm finding that it's very difficult to articulate why I want to be a nurse without sounding cheesy.

- Where else are y'all applying?

I think that's all for now! I look forward to chatting with everyone!

Ah okay!! So we should hear back sometime in the next couple of weeks. I still have one class that finishes on June 20th so I hope I get a chance to send in that grade!

Specializes in Emergency Nursing.

I emailed Nora and she told me those who were not moving forward in the process would notified in the next few weeks, and although no specific date has been set decisions should be released late July/early August.

Do you know if we are notified by email or by mail or by both?

So from what I have read, those who have been waitlisted or accepted will receive an invitation email to Duke Days. We won't know of an exact acceptance/rejection decision until the end of July/beginning of August.

Thanks!!

Hi Everyone!

I applied to the Duke ABSN for Spring 2018! I am so nervous!!! I have been very anxious waiting to receive an admissions decision but I feel confident going in with a high GPA. The Duke Days invitations should be going out soon. Last year Duke Day invitations were sent out June 21st for the Spring 2017 cohort. I am nervous applying because I'm younger then the normal candidate, I am graduating with my BS in 2 1/2 years rather than 4. I don't know if my age will work against me :/

I am also applying to Johns Hopkins Masters Entry into Nursing.

I just got an email saying my application got through to the next round! It also came with an invitation to Duke Days.

Sending good vibes to all of you for similar emails (:

I received an invitation email as well!

I just got my invitation to Duke Days!!!

Does anyone know what receiving an invitation to Duke Days means? Does everyone who submits an application receive an invite?

Oh No :/ I did not receive an invitation. Hopefully one trickles in the next couple of days.

If you were invited to Duke Days, you are being considered for either acceptance or the waitlist.
