The DABSN has alumni working as nurses in states across the nation, and even internationally. Because nursing licensure requirements vary from state to state and by professional organization, prospective students to any nursing program should be aware of the licensing requirements in the state or states in which they expect to be licensed. These requirements are typically governed by a board of nursing, health department or similar regulatory body. The Nurse Licensure Compact enables nurses to be licensed in multiple states at the same time.

Applicants to the program should familiarize themselves with licensing authority or Education requirements in the state or states in which they intend to practice. In particular, you should learn any specific rules and regulations pertaining to completion of clinical learning experiences in that state when enrolled in a distance-based program.

Note: Chromebooks or tablet devices, other than the Surface Pro, are not suitable for the program as they cannot support the ExamSoft system used to conduct quizzes, examinations and other evaluations of academic progress.

The program has three entry dates in January, May and August of each year, aligning with the Emory University academic calendar for on-campus nursing programs.

We hold regular virtual information sessions and record them for prospective students who are unable to attend. Session content is often driven by questions from participants, thus may differ slightly from session to session.

The cost of the program will be approximately $82,000, billed each semester at a credit hour rate based on the number of credit hours taken. An online fee per semester and a one-time laboratory fee are also assessed. We seek to limit the expense of textbooks and course materials to $1500 for the entire program.

Employment, even part time, while enrolled in the program is discouraged and no allowances are made because of conflicts with outside work schedules.

Courses are sequenced to build on prior knowledge, and clinical rotations enhance the application of concepts learned in course work.

Most our graduates receive job offers prior to graduation. Nationally, 99% of nurses are employed within three to six months of graduation. Working in the health system in which you have completed clinical study may also provide an advantage in the hiring process. Graduates of all nursing programs must pass the NCLEX-RN licensure examination to begin working as a registered nurse. The last few months of the program focus on preparation for the NCLEX-RN certification examination, and include a review course and assessment testing. The cost of NCLEX Assessment Testing and a review course are built into the program.

Emory offers nine specialty areas of study for those who choose to pursue a career in advanced nursing (nurse practitioner or midwifery).

Completed applications are reviewed in a holistic process that includes evaluation of transcripts, and work and life experiences. You may be asked to participate in an interview as a part of the admission process.

Prior to scheduled class times (based on Eastern Standard Time), students prepare by watching pre-recorded lectures and completing course readings. During scheduled real-time class sessions, students participate in active learning strategies, including discussions among class members, for application and analysis of course content.

Students should plan to spend 8-10 hours per day working on assignments, readings, and studying. Students should expect some course assignments to be due during clinical rotations, but your clinical requirements will never conflict with scheduled class sessions.
