Hi! I was wondering if anyone knew how strict they are about the gpa requirement? Also, I'm coming to Houston from an out of state college (family recently moved to houston), how is it looking for new grads getting hired? And does anyone know when we should start hearing back from memorial hermann?

I also applied! My top choice is PICU at Children's. Looking forward to hearing updates from everyone :)
Not sure how strict they are but MH requires a 3.0 GPA. There are TON of hospitals in the Houston area, and Methodist is opening a hospital in July in The Woodlands and so is Texas Children's. so right now, it's looking good for new grads because a lot of experienced nurses at other area hospitals are trying to get a job at the new Methodist hospital & the new Texas Children's.
Great, thanks for the reply!!

Does anyone know how strict MH is on their BLS Certification requirement? It says it's a requirement on the application, however should I get certified beforehand just in case I get called back to Match Day or do they give you time to become certified before you start their residency program?
I would definitely get it before you apply. There is a spot on the application for you to enter any certifications you have, so I'm sure they will be looking to make sure you have your BLS.
Really? I didn't see a spot on the application to enter certifications.. hmm, thats weird. Thanks!
