    hopefulnurse24 replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    Hey everyone! Are you guys applying to any other programs? I was able to check if Duke received my transcript by logging in to the application. That's how you check the "status". MrsBaze, are there...

    hopefulnurse24 replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in Post Graduate Students

    hopefulnurse24 replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in Post Graduate Students

    hopefulnurse24 replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in Post Graduate Students
