Hi All! I have decided to take the plunge and leave my career as a mental health therapist to gain a BSN in Nursing and hopefully move straight into MSN program. Is anyone else applying to Duke in the Fall??

Hey Ya'll. I officially declined this morning. I whom ever takes my spot really enjoys there time at Duke and gives it the 100% passion I could not. I am looking into setting up a priviate therapy practice so if you guys ever have patients from t...

Good news for all of those on the waitlist. I got in, but have decided its just not the right time for me to make the time or money commitment. So theres a space for you! I've really loved "meeting" and going through all this with you. Best of luck ...

Sara~ Good luck today! My boyfriend and I are leaving in a few hours! Hope we don't get stuck in Durham. They are saying Asheville is going to get 10 inches! Eeekk. Can't wait to see everyone, have safe travels!

Thanks Ladies. I think it will be fine. I want to look professional but comfortable too. For all you ladies coming in from out of State its going to be COLD, they are even talking about snow. Make sure to bring a warm jacket. Also if you are hanging ...

Hey Ya'll Ok one question. Is anyone not wearing a suit. I'm just not a full on suit girl. I was thinking dark grey slacks, white button down with pewter colored flats. I mean very classy just not a suit. You all think that is ok?

For everyone attending the Duke Day on the 29th. The weather is supposed to be cold and rainy. Lets all send positive thoughts and prayers for a weather change!!!

Hey Ya'll! Is everyone staying at the Millineum? I want to be able to meet everyone but we are staying at The Indigo Hotel. My boyfriend is coming with me but not to the actual day. I'm sure he will be holed up doing some work drinking a beer some...

Hey Everyone! Wow, it feel like I've been gone forever. I have been so busy lately, I've not had a chance to check in. I am so excited for everyone who is interviewing this week (today!) and for all of us whom are interviewing 1 week from today...

Hey Kelly! Welcome to the Club. I hope you will like NC. Duke boast an absolutely stunning campus, though last time I was there it was spring and there were tulips absolutely everywhere! It will be a bit brown and barren this time of year but I t...

Ok Gator. I'm sold, Watt-Hillandale it is! Thank you for all your awesome information.

Good question kspills, I was going to ask the exact same thing.

Random question, are there dog parks around the Watt-Hilandale area?

Gator! That was a huge help. I was unaware that South Durham was so far away from Duke, I was thinking it was closer to 10 mins so I am glad you corrected me. I am looking forward to looking more at the Watts-Hillandale area, sounds safe and cl...

Hey Everyone! It feels like forever! Hope everyone had a great Holiday and wonderful New Years! I've been snowed/iced in for what feels like weeks. The wild chill is -8 degrees for tonight...someone send me back to the deep south! Can anyone t...

Jason~ Did you say you were a Chef at Rue Cler? I have read a bit about it (previously) and always brings rave reviews!

Not into Duke yet, they do interviews first! I have my interview in late January. Do you know if MUSC does interviews?

Hey Twinkle! Thanks for writing back. I am thinking of starting a new thread for those who are applying for 2010 Fall. I just heard about an interview from Duke yesterday but am going to continue pursing MUSC as I adore Charleston and its wayyy...

Good Morning Friends and Fellow Duke Hopefuls! I have to share, its snowing like crazy in Asheville. We are supposed to get 15 inches today! That is craaaazy. I am spending the day baking and of course checking in with the crew on All Nurse...

Ugh Carolina...Thats what I was going to wear...humph.

Twois it will be brisk here in NC. Asheville is actually getting 5 inches of snow tomorrow (thats a lot for this Mississippi Native)! I too am pretty sure I'm going to buy something new shiny and fabulous. Probably something business snappy. Hmmm a...
