New York Presbyterian? new grad program?

[SpecFuz]

I'll be graduating in December (I can barely believe it) and plan on moving back to NYC (currently in Nashville). Hoping someone wouldn't mind taking the time to answer a bunch of questions...

Heard a little bit about NYP, anyone been in their grad RN internship program? How long does it last? Do you have to sign a contract as a new grad? Do they offer tuition repayment? Do you get to choose the area you want? Is there a standard starting hourly rate for new BSN's? This is a long shot but..any housing assistance?

Thank you so much!!!!!!

Hi, I'm a recent graduate, and am interested in NYP opportunities for women's/children's health, specifically in NICU/PICU. I was wondering if you could please pass me the info for the MSCHONY recruiter? I applied online, and a general recruiter said that new grads aren't hired into these specialties. Any help you could give would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi-

Does anyone know if you need to wait until the 12 wk orientation is completed to use the NYP employee housing? Or, can you move in for the start of your 1st day?

Thanks

Hi, I am a new grad RN and recently got my RN License. I saw your post and I know it was from '07 but I figured that I might as well give it it a shot as I was drawn to this post... My dream is to become a NICU nurse. I was wondering if you would have any suggestions on applying to NYP, specifically for the NICU. This is my dream job and I would love and really appreciate any assistance you could give me! I am new to this website so I can not send private messages but please email me at[email protected]. Fingers crossed for a response =)

As a new grad in NICU here, you get a minimum of 18 weeks orientation, max 28. Most of it is clinical, but you do take NRP, CPAP class and breastfeeding/developmental care classes. I was able to go to our national respiratory care conference as well as cardiac care conferences here at Columbia while on orientation.
