The hardest part for me was definitely adjusting to being back in school and having so many responsibilities and yet so little control over it! You will come to find that each class requires things outside of school time (clinical hours, group projec...

Hi all! Congratulations on receiving interviews, I hope everyone's Duke Days went well! I graduated from DUSON in December 2013, and currently work at Duke Hospital. I am available to answer any questions you all may have regarding interviews, accept...

Hello all! Just started my first nursing job in a Cardiothoracic Surgical ICU at a large teaching hospital, and can already tell it will be an extreme learning curve, but I am up for the challenge! I completed my final clinical at the same hospital's...

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone else out there applied to George Washington University's BSN program to start this fall? I know the deadline was last week and I got an email saying applications were being "reviewed" so hopefully we will hear someth...

Hi guys, I don't know if GWU has a tuition reimbursement program...I know runnova was talking about Georgetown having a program, and I know that Duke has this program too. Not sure about GWU though...that would be a great plus if they did!

Congrats to everyone! :yeah:And ABSN I am rooting for you! Must be somewhat helpful to know that you are #2 on the list; just know there are plenty of people that may have chosen to go elsewhere or have another top school! I am almost certain you wil...

Just got the email around 4....IM IN TOO!!!! So excited and shocked!!!!

I'm really hoping we don't have to wait until Monday to hear...does anyone have any reason to email her and ask? If the fb group is any indication, it seems they will definitely be making offers to at least 20 people from the 2nd round, possibly even...

@moggsy and all the other 2nd rounders...how are you all holding up? i'm starting to get anxious again knowing it's less than 2 weeks away!

Congrats poodle! That is great news for you, even though it seems a bit disorganized you can now breathe a sigh of relief! :yelclap: And thanks to both of you for keeping us in the loop, you have no idea how much it helps calm my nerves knowing that ...

That's great you got to see the area! I am trying to plan a visit out there before we have to send in our deposits, but April 11 is approaching so quickly! I am actually waiting to hear from Duke before I make any final decisions; Duke has said I wil...

Congrats runnova! Are you planning on attending? Have you been to the school before? I am planning on taking a trip down to see the campus sometime soon! I'm from Boston and I've always loved the DC area so it would be awesome to live around there!

Here's to hoping you get some good news today, poodle! Let us know when you find out! :)

Even though it's 30 we can still stay positive! Sometimes people pay the deposit fee and register just to make sure they have a seat, even if they are waiting for a reply from another school!

@moggsy thank you! it is a relief HOWEVER Duke is still my first choice. I'm still hoping to hear some good news come April 9th...but it's getting difficult to wait! I think they are both great programs and I would be happy to go to either but my hea...

I think it depends on how many people decline their offers from the first round. Let's hope some of those first-rounders got into another school that they loved even more!

Just got my decision...I got in! So relieved! I was emailed back on Feb 15th that my application was sent for review so hopefully that gives you guys a timeline of when to expect a decision!

I hope so! I would assume people will start hearing by the beginning of April, if not sooner...

Have any other second-rounders heard back from their other schools? I'm still waiting...I'm getting very impatient!

Congrats Mellzie!! Even though Vanderbilt might not be your top choice school, I would recommend sending in that deposit just to guarantee yourself a spot SOMEWHERE! If Duke pulls through eventually you can always go! When does the Vanderbilt program...

Wow! I didn't realize so many people had applied! And yes I too was told we are notified via email.

14 really?! I have a feeling people who were accepted are either still waiting to hear from other schools or are waiting to see what financial aid packages will look like until they make their final decision.

Hopefully March will fly by and it will be April before we know it! I hope everyone keeps us updated on what schools they are hearing back from in the meantime!

I emailed one of the admissions people and she replied saying that once your application is "under review" it should take 4-6 weeks for the committee to make a decision, however she said you usually get a response in less than 4 weeks if all of your ...

Rosie, did you receive an acceptance to Simmons? I currently live and work in Boston and you're definitely right, the cost of living is more expensive and that was one of the reasons I did not apply to any schools in this area, even though there are ...
