Hey Abbie, Welcome to the Circus that is applying for the Duke ABSN, a wonderful place filled with nerves, stress and daily panic attacks! From what I hear, Duke really looks at the person as a whole, so your grades and GRE will serve you well...M...

Carolina- Ohhhh "life experience" I like that. I have LOTS of that too...its been almost 8 years since I graduated from college so my "not so new grades but lots of life experience" box is checked too! Good to know about Chapel Hill. Maybe I'll throw...

Hi! I too love Asheville! Its such a fun funky town. I will be sad to sell my house and leave the mountains but hey, I can always come back! I have't a clue what Kebunt is talking about, I would never ever disobey the laws of All Nurses as I have ...

Asheville is a great and funky little town! I've lived here about 5 years and am originally from Mississippi.

Hey Ladies and welcome Carolina! So we think they are about 77 slots for 200 people. That is pretty promising for we Blue Devil hopefuls! I am stillllll waiting on one letter. I am about to go crazy, I have been promised that it will be complete ton...

Annaiya Thanks so much for your insight. Have you completed the program?

Charlestonsailing! Congrats on getting in. That is awesome. I'll be moving to Charleston from Asheville NC. I have a few friends in the Charleson area but would defintely want some people close to my age so pal around with, especially if we are going...

Charlestonsaling, Are you in the program now? How is it? I'd love to hear your thoughts. Also can you let me know a little about age of students. I am 30 and would start the program at 31. I don't really want to be the old lady of the class!

Mine is right over 100, its just makes me feel so stunted. My undergraduate GPA was 3.41 and my Masters was 3.77, but I heard MUSC is really hard to get into...The whole thing makes me so nevrous.

Nics... When you submitted your application, was your essay 100 words or did you go over? I keep hearing a lot about how important the essay is but how in the world can you descrbie your ability to contribute to the nursing field in 100 words or ...

Hey Nics! Hows the application process going? I'm almost finished with mine, hope to get it in in the next few weeks.

Hey Twinkle, I'm from Asheville NC (but I'm not hippy granola hehe). I love Charleston I hope I get in :) Where are you from?

Hi! I'm joining the thread wondering if anyone is applying for Fall 2010?

Ladies I have the flu, must we discuss percentages, it makes my head hurt hehe :loveya:

I hope the 200 applicants for 75 spots sounds like pretty good odd, I am crossing my fingers of all we fine ladies applying. I submited my application online about 2 weeks ago and sent my transcripts and 2 out of 3 letters. The woman who was doing ...

Hi Gals and welcome GenevaMarie! I would love to hear more about the interview process from some of those who are now in the program. I've heard people not having time to finish ect but I'm not sure what that is all about. Also what are Duke Days? I ...

Looks like we got in trouble. You know us crazy Duke kids, buch of hell raisers haha. I hope we get a denial letter if we don't get in, seems the right thing to do...though none of us are going to have to worry about that right!?

Katie, I live in Asheville NC... about 3 hours and 15 mins from Duke. Sounds like you will have quite a move once you get in! Its nice that we are all able to "meet" on here before hand, it will make the crazy process that much easier.

Hey Katie! Welcome to the big ball of nerves that is the Fall 2010 Duke BSN applicants. I have sent my application in but am waiting on one more rec letter. I am so ready to just know one way or another. Do you live in Durham? I'm still trying to g...

Hey Kelayy! Welcome to our little ball of nerves also known as the hoping and praying to get into Duke game. I think it sounds like you have a great chance of getting in, so bravo. I just sent my application in last night. I am awaiting one set of...

Hey! I am not applying to UNC. The major reason is I have absolutely no desire to get my CNA which the State schools around here require. At this point, I am running behind due to my dead hard drive. I lost EVERYTHING. I am going to try to bust ...
