I applied for children's hospital first and acute care second. I'll have my BSN in December but already have a BS in another area.

Awesome! I sure hope you get your first choice.

I also graduate in December. I have a bachelors in accounting and extensive IT experience from the military.

I applied. I do not have my bachelors, I'm starting that in February. I chose Intensive Care Units and Pediatrics.

I hope we hear something within the coming months.

Hi all!

I applied immediately when I received wind of this residency. It didn't take me that long to do the clinical narrative. I have no idea what they were looking for but I chose one of the most emotional but patient advocating experiences i could remember during clinicals.

I read on their site that we should get an email in November regarding interviews. I am hoping I will be selected. I am in Southeast PA currently and hoping to work in Med/Surg or ER

Sounds like a topic that will mean something to you if they talk about it in your interview! You definitely can't go wrong with that. I read from last year's topic that they heard who got interviews in October, so let's hope we will too.

Sunshyne, which areas did you put down for preference?

sunshyne17 · Sep 26, 2013

foxessb1 - I chose acute / medsurge and ER I think. Pretty much anything except critical care for me.

Just a heads up for anyone applying to the OR: start date is now January 13, 2014.

Hey guys I just read this. I applied as well and I am dying to hear back either way! How did you know that the OR start date got bumped up? I didn't choose OR but I just looked at the webiste today and it is all update for the Residency program that strats in July.

williams84 · Oct 8, 2013

I got an email late last week. I believe it's only the OR start date that got pushed up. I'm just glad that we're closer to finding out who can be interviewed.
