Novant Health Nurse Residency Summer 2025

studentnurse26 · Feb 11

Hi I applied for placement in Wilmington starting in the Summer cohort! I could be wrong but I remember being told that if you're waitlisted, you will receive an offer but it may be later in the application process or for another specialty. I haven't heard back yet. Out of curiosity, when did you hear from Charlotte Market? I was told we would hear by the end of February but maybe it will be sooner if you heard back already!

Congrats! I do hope you're right haha. I've been told Novant really wastes no time in getting back to you on these things and they sure are quick. They emailed me on 2/4, if it weren't for the weekend it probably would've been even sooner. I accepted being waitlisted so now I'm just waiting (and hoping LOL) that a spot opens up soon. They said I could receive an offer from now until August, which is their last start date. If not then I can be confident I don't have a spot. I really want to start in June/July so fingers crossed!

Hi! I wanted to see if anyone got offered or accepted a job in the Greater Winston market Adult acute care. I applied to NICU and Women's Health as well but they did not have anymore openings since they are limited to a certain amount of applicants I believe.

@bsngal25 I also wanted NICU in Winston but I got offered a position in the cardiac residency!

Hi again! Does anyone know how many applicants are usually accepted into the NICU or Women's Health specialty ? If so, what was the criteria needed to be accepted?

I applied for women's health and was not accepted despite applying early, having a great interview and good academic stats overall, so I'm not sure how they are picking. It's just a really competitive specialty along with NICU and pediatrics. If you are willing to take the opportunity from multiple markets rather than one then I'd say there's a better chance. But of course you'd have to be open to the idea of relocating.

Hi I received an email about being offered a spot in the program and was very excited because my top choice was pediatrics. However, in the email it did not say what unit I would be on, so therefore I assumed it was my top choice. How do you know what unit they are offering you?

A classmate of mine was given an offer and she wasn't told either. She said they wanted to do a follow-up with her and she thinks they will discuss it then.
