Hi there. The VA does take a while since they're taking a look at many applicants (typically 200-250). If selected they will email you about a time slot for interviews. You could be waiting 1- 1 1/2 months later for selection. If you are a selected applicant, the onboarding will also take a few months too. I hope that helps. It is a great program to be in.

Same here. One of classmates got an offer on Tuesday at 11am.

Has anyone heard anything from RR 8ICU yet?

Apologies.

Yeah transplant unit. I didn’t realize that I picked that. All I remembered was pick ICU when applying.

Apologies! I just logged back on to this site. Update: for most my theory classes, they were online. It was an adjustment in the first term or two. I still have in-person clinical. Some were not as lucky. But I made the most of it and it was great. I just graduated in Aug and got my RN license in October. I do know that in my last term for integrations, they were starting to have classes come back on campus for theory. Hope that helps.

Hi, Did anyone get a second interview for RR 8ICU? My application status has not changed. But I know some units will do second interviews. Just wondering if its for this unit, RR 8ICU. Thank you!

Hi! I was offered post baccalaureate registered nurse residency for the VA that starts in March 2023. I was wondering how was your experience with the new grad program that the VA offered? Pros and cons? Thank you!

Hi Nadia, I am currently a student that goes there too. But I haven’t had that issue. I too am on a payment plan. What exactly did your financial aid advisor say? I haven’t been notified about doing a repackaging yet. how long have you’ve been there for? Nydia*

Do you guys know if the scholarship is available to those who didn’t get turned down for a loan?

@hgl22 My reg & Tech day is feb 20. Orientation on March 27.

Hi Oh no! When did you take those classes? I do know that they are only good for 5 years at wcu when transferring.

Hi hgl22, thanks so much for your response. ? I will be emailing them about that. That will be one less class that I’ll have to take. Have you already started looking at the books yet?

Have anyone of you taken nutrition? Did that transfer over?

Oh I see. Got it. I hope your advisor is correct too! We've been waiting too long. lol

Hi! I was just wanting to see how WCU is going for you. I start in April. Can you give me any insight into the program?

Hi everyone, I am just starting a thread for us who are starting at WCU in April. Does everyone have the same Reg & tech day? I have mines on Feb 20.

Yes, per year. Without the help of financial aid, tuition is $38k/year.

Hi. I am actually starting in April. They have some prerequisites that every student has to take because it is only available at west coast. These classes are cultural plurism, pathophysiology, ge capstone, and I believe their version of critical thinking. With the financial aid, I am like you, where I get the max amount on the pell grant and loan. With what financial aid covers, you’ll need to look for loans covering the remainder per year. So after financial aid, it is between $22k-$23k. Hope that helps! Best of luck. ?

I have. I would not recommend it. But, if you're able to do both, and really focus, then go for it.

Has anyone went here? Please share your experience here. I am really considering going here in April. Thanks

Thank you! I'll keep that in mind. I will be attending Glendale community college. Better passing rate.

Thank you all! This info is going to help me alot. :)

How did you RNs do it? Which way is the best way.
