I'm not sure how many they're taking this round, but I'm really rooting for everyone here! 💙
No matter what happens, we've all worked so hard and waited so patiently to get to this point.
I just wish there was a way to find out — it would definitely help us stay even more hopeful together. 🌿

Trying to stay hopeful and patient!! I am patiently waiting to hear if anyone has gotten any updates from NICU?

Not yet 😅 I've been checking every day though!
Hopefully, the NICU and PICU calls or emails will start going out soon 🤞💙
Sending positive vibes to everyone who's still waiting! 💫

 

Any NICU updates?

Haha yes! I have a feeling the 30th might be the magic day 🤞💙
Hoping we all get some good news soon — rooting for everyone here! 🩵🌸

Just received my rejection email, both PICU and NICU. Goodluck to everyone who got an interview 🤍

also just received a rejection 💔

Received a rejection as well... good luck to those that have interviews!! God has a path for everyone and He knows where we will thrive best!

I just got my email too — I didn't make it this round either 💙
I know how heartbreaking this feels after all the hope and waiting we've shared together. But please know, we've all come so far just by applying, staying hopeful, and supporting each other through this process.

Even though this wasn't our time, it doesn't mean our story ends here. Sometimes, the universe just wants us to grow a little more before we walk through the door that's truly meant for us 🌿

I'm still so proud of every single one of you — for your courage, your heart, and your resilience. We're all future NICU/Peds nurses in the making, and I truly believe our moment will come 💫

Sending love and strength to everyone here 🤍🕊️

I got my rejection too 🥲 ik this program is very competitive but good luck to those who got selected for an interview! Also good luck to the rest of us 🩷

Received my rejection as well. We are all so deserving and capable! Hoping everyone the best for their future!💞🤞
