New grad starting salary?

ANMpreN · Jul 3, 2015

I'm just a pre-nursing student here in Chicago so I don't really have anything to add but I was wondering have you tried Rush's new grad residency program?

I am also a new grad around Chicago and would love to know as well!

Macneal: $27.88 with shift differentials

Ingalls: $27.00 with shift differentals

I would say 27 is the most common amount I have heard of.

No I haven't but I had a friend that did do the residency program and she thought it was good. I believe she said she had 6 months of orientation? That seems like a sufficient amount of time!

those orientation programs, are they paid same as new grad on average basis?

Hmm I'm not sure what you mean but that but during orientation you get paid the new grad starting rate at whatever hospital you work.

nightowl,

Thank you for the reply. I was not sure about how this new grad orientation works. If you were paid like 70% of the new grad or whole 100% of new grad salary. As if it sounds that they cut yoyu some slack :)
