Mayo Clinic Summer III-2011

Published

Hello everyone!

I am a nursing student from Chicago & i have just submitted my application for the Mayo Clinic Summer III program. I was also curious to know who all are applying for the program, and what specialty you want to go into...my top choices are Hematology/Oncology & Gynecology. I really hope to get this great opportunity, I don't care about the distance! Please share :D

Oh yeah, best of luck to all :jester:

Wow makes me even more nervous to get my letter - eeeek!

So is everyone going to receive their letters today or sometime in the next week?

Everyone keep your heads up and a positive attitude. We all have attributes which likely improve chances of being accepted. And even if you aren't accepted, it's just one single missed opportunity. There will be many more in the course of our careers. I don't know how they go about the order in which letters are sent out, so don't fret if you've not received yours yet. I live within 10 miles of the clinic, so that might be why I received mine so quickly. And thank you for the encouraging words regarding the alternate position "yourfuturenurse" :nurse:

I didn't get in, I'm very sad because this was the only big one for me...but there will be something better for us who did not get in. Hopefully, no one is as upset as I am, but keep applying and looking for other positions!

I feel ya - I am really upset about not getting in, I really thought I was going to and was really looking forward to it. Just gotta stay hopeful and know we will find something else

Yes! I, too, thought I had a good chance. No, my GPA was not the best, but I don't think that necessarily makes a good nurse. I figured my essay portion was well-written, but there were a lot of applicants so I can't be down on those who did get chosen. It just wasn't meant for me to travel 6 hours to leave the fam and my bf lol. BUT I am still looking at places to apply. Good luck to those who have made it. Have great experiences and let us know how it goes!
