Hi! So i just accepted a job at UNC healthcare in Chapel Hill and I'm quite excited about it. I am moving from out of state and I have no idea what the area is like. I've looked around quite a bit (online and when I was there for interviews) and I h...

UPDATE: I've also gotten a letter in the mail now from College of Nursing! (To my address in Ga). I've accepted my offer, paid my deposit, and I've been added to the admitted students listserv. Hope everyone hears soon!

Cnsiffor that makes me very unhappy!

Yeah pediatric primary. It's separate from family track. &Probably one of the easier specialties because there's typically less interest. I got an email telling me to check the site that I submitted my application on (app.apply I think) and then...

Joy is better when it's multiplied so please update when yall find out!

Anyone else heard anything?!

I got an email this morning. I'm in shock. I'm in!

I applied Feb 25 and I was contacted like 2 weeks later and interviewed like two weeks after that (giving myself time to get a plane ticket to fly up there) and I was offered the position the day after I interviewed. So the whole process took about ...

That's all super helpful!! Thanks. I applied to Pediatric track but I imagine all the specialties other than FNP will have around that same 30ish number of admits. Also good to know about the weekend option. I already applied full time and I would l...

Wow, that's a 2 hour trip, right? Also, in case anyone cares, I spoke with an advisor today and she still says Mid May at the latest. I asked her what the criteria was for decisions and the first thing she said was GPA. Then she talked about having ...

Is anyone else not already near Chapel Hill? Who's having to move if they get accepted?

I'm with you. I can't wait to know one way or another!

Yeah if you haven't already I would definitely recommend reaching out to the nurse recruiters through chat. I did it and was taking directly with a recruiter. We even got disconnected and she called me on the phone. I had already filled out an appli...

Nevermind. I realize you said you've been at Duke for 2 years.

mmc, Where do you work?

That's funny. I was offered a position at Duke, but I'd rather be at UNC. Any reason you don't want to keep the job you've been offered? The way I got in to interview (and ultimately get a job offer) was I went online and chatted with their nurse r...

Do you work at UNC also? Maybe you'll hear sooner? Also, maybe it's related to the specialty. I wonder what takes them so long considering we had to submit it so early...

WJewell does the person who you heard got admitted already go to UNC? I think that's so strange that she got accepted so early.

I've also emailed and I was told that decisions would be out in May. I will have to move from out of state so I really wish I could know earlier, but it is what it is. Let's just hope for good news in May. And I agree that Duke is so great that if ...

Awesome! So glad to hear that. I found out that I may have an interview for unit 5300 there at Duke Children's!! It's a great day. Haha

Thanks so much! Also, I didn't apply at DUKE for MSN, but keep me updated on your status. Hope to hear that you get an interview :) Seems like they would have some sort of inclination toward nurses that work at their hospital already!

Sweet!! I haven't applied yet. I'm going to start looking next month and March. I will probably take you up on your offer around then. Random ??, will the Duke education benefits pay for UNC classes? I decided against applying to Duke so i've been un...

I work in pediatrics now. 1.5 years of experience (2 years by the time I would move there). Finding pediatric jobs is always more complicated than adult world because theres usually such a smaller need, but since I'm going for peds specialty I don't...

Too long... If you don't mind me asking, where do you work?. I'm currently living in another state but would relocate if I got accepted. I'm a little worried about finding a job.

I applied at UNC for Fall 2015! Pediatric specialty. I've read some old posts and I think last year they received decisions around May. And I know UNCs application website says MSN decisions will be out early May due to volume of applicants. So here...
