  2. RIH/Hasbro Critical Care Internships:

    They are still scheduling interviews. I got a call today for an interview.
  3. RIH/Hasbro Critical Care Internships:

    Nope, haven't heard anything yet. Does anyone know how they are contacting people about interviews? In batches or all together? From the website, it seems like all interviews will be scheduled over a period of a week or so.
  4. RIH/Hasbro Critical Care Internships:

    I heard from someone who applied to the program in the last cycle. She said the hospital didn't follow the time line posted on the website. She was called for an interview 2-3 weeks after when she thought they would. If this is true for this cycle, i...

    I just received an email acknowledging receipt of my application and they will be in contact if I'm selected for an interview. Fingers crossed!

    I talked to a nurse manager last week. She mentioned there are 8-9 positions available. They do give priority to RIH employees. Also if you are interested, their regular new grad program (for med/surg positions) will be posted in August under the jo...

    Allie- Don't know if you've already heard from UMass Worcester but I learned today that they are still interviewing candidates. You may still be considered if you haven't heard.
  11. Umass Worcester GEP!! Please reply!

    I'm in the acute care track. The schedule and workload is busy and constant but manageable. During the first year, we have classes 2 days a week, clinical 2 days a week and lab every other week. You may have a 3-11 shift during one of the clinical r...

    Hi Zippy, I'm currently in the program. The interview is usually conducted by a faculty member from your specialty and the director of the program. My interview was more conversational in style than a formal interview. Be prepared to answer question...
  13. A thread for those awaiting decisions...

    I don't think you should live with the unknowns yet. Some unknowns are ok but the lack of a clear class schedule for the program is a huge issue. The school should have that information available. You may want to contact the school and see if you c...
  14. Nursing School -- 2.5 Undergrad GPA

    Most schools look at your application as a whole package with GPA being only one component. I suggest boosting other parts of your application: get some healthcare experience, build a complete story about why you are passionate about nursing and why...
  15. Got into MSN/ MGH....now what...

    Dr Fitness, What did you decide? MGH or not? I finally made my decision after getting my financial aid letter from MGH. I am going to UMass Worcester instead. The cost was a huge factor. Good luck with your decision.
