   Good luck, everyone!!! I sympathize with the waiting, it was the worst part!

2. Applying to Duke ABSN Spring 2017

   adairfletch replied to kathywasabi's topic in North Carolina

   Hi Pmilian08! I'm sorry to hear you didn't get accepted this last go round. My friend isn't reapplying, she's applying to Watts instead, so she can still start nursing school in the fall (they have rolling admissions). Nora essentially told her over ...

3. Applying to Duke ABSN Spring 2017

   adairfletch replied to kathywasabi's topic in North Carolina

   Hi all! I applied for Fall 2016 and was accepted, so I thought I'd answer any questions I can after successfully going through the application process. It is stressful, but worth it! @kathywasabi: From everything I've heard, no, Duke doesn't consider...

4. A&P1 & A&P2 over the summer

   adairfletch replied to msheather413's topic in Pre-Nursing

   A&P is a LOT of material, and I don't think 5 weeks does the course justice, whether or not anyone would want to deal with taking it in such a condensed amount of time. If you're time and financially strapped, then you have to do what's right for...

5. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

   adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

   @bme_rn2b Hi! Thanks for posting! I think Duke's cohorts tend to be pretty diverse, and don't worry, I'm not a traditional student, either - also have an MA in another field, and I'll be 31 in May. I'm sure we're not the only ones! I'll be attending ...

   Chapel Hill is lovely, but can be pretty expensive. You'll be closest to Duke in Durham, of course, and the downtown area is a cool place to hang out, but Durham also has some very rough areas. There's loads of available places to stay in Raleigh, ju...

7. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

   adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

   I've paid my deposit, too! Very excited to meet all of you!! :) @Katro007, will you have a car? If not, I'd stick to Durham or Chapel Hill, but there are some nice areas to stay at in Raleigh, too. I'll be commuting from north Raleigh, most likely, w...

   I just RSVP's for Duke Days - anyone else going to be there on Friday, April 8th? :)

   Thank you, vitaga12, and good luck at Emory or Miami!!

10. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

    adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    You can ask, but in the past I don't think they gave out numbers (I read through past cohort threads when I was applying). The deadline for paying our deposit is April 13th, so waitlisted candidates should start hearing after that date. Is anyone els...

11. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

    adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    Mine's conditional upon satisfactory completion of Microbiology, but it's still an acceptance. Is your letter different? Btw, I'm definitely going, so I can't wait to meet all of you soon!

    adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    I've been accepted, too! Hasn't really sunk in yet, tbh. Congrats!!!

13. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

    adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    Sorry I didn't reply sooner! I second everything otay5 said, and you'll have to look into funding options regardless of where you go, so I'd get that ball rolling now anyway. And it never hurts to speak with admissions offices - they're trying to get...

14. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

    adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    What does "planning" entail, exactly? If it's just sending deposit money, and you can afford possibly to lose it, then I would go ahead - having a fall back plan is always wise, in my opinion. And the 18th is only two weeks from now. Have you spoken ...

15. Applying for Duke ABSN fall 2016

    adairfletch replied to Ijfo's topic in North Carolina

    Hey everyone! I spoke with someone at the admissions office yesterday, because I wanted to know about the info session date/time in case I'm waitlisted. Essentially, we're all just reading into receiving/not receiving the email because we're all unde...
