  1. west coast uni q's

    If you can't take the time to do a 5 second Google search on the school, don't answer questions about it. West Coast is expensive, yes. It's accredited by both CCNE and WASC. Take your pre-requisites at a community college and transfer them if this i...
  2. UCSF New Grad Residency Program 2016

    Search this forum for UCSF and you'll find several threads from previous application cycles.
  3. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    I haven't seen a thread for this cycle so if one already exists, please direct me to it! Anyone here apply and get invited to the first round interview on November 16th?
  4. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    Search this forum for Legacy and you'll find several threads about the program. Al seems to say that it's less GOA and more attitude.
  5. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    Are you asking about the first or second round? I believe all qualified applicants are invited to the first round. I flew in from CA.
  6. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    I'm going to start a position in L&D next week so it doesn't feel as bad to not get a call. I can wait a few months to move!
  7. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    Nothing here. I've definitely been second guessing my answers though and I'm feeling a lot less confident. Hoping the holidays are delaying things.
  8. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    ----------------- just emailed saying that hiring managers are starting to contact people for second interviews! Feels cruel to say that at end of business on a Friday, ha!
  9. UCLA New Grad Program Winter 2016

    10% could be 30 out of 300 or 60 out of 60 applicants. I'm sure this gets hundreds of applicants and so 10% isn't that crazy a number.
  10. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    She told me that the numbers of open positions can change throughout the process so maybe that's why it's so broad? I just want to make sure I can afford airfare for a second interview!
  11. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    Same here. That question took some thinking. The timeline for the rest of the process seems weird. Like, it's already mid-November so I wonder how quickly they'll be contacting people for a second interview.
  12. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    I have a few regrets about not trying to interview for Mt Hood locations but I feel good about the interviews I did. I interviewed L&D at Emanuel, ER at Good Sam, and Peds.
  13. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    YES IT WAS. What time did you interview? I was in the 8:30 group.
  14. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    That's my understanding. I can't tell from previous application threads whether they have done it that way in the past. The email said 1 hour to interview with as many department managers as we can.
  15. Legacy RN Residency Winter 206

    Same here. I'm flying up from the LA area because literally 90% of my friends have moved to Portland in the last 5 years so it's also a mini-vacation. The format sounds kinda crazy! I would really like Women's Health but I know that's gonna be one o...
  16. West Coast University - BSN Program

    WCU is WASC accredited which generally means that credits will transfer to other WASC accredited institutions. BUT - they do not have to accept the credits. That goes for any school though. Many of my classmates there worked full time. Some more succ...
  17. The never ending wait for my ATT....

    I feel you. I'm losing my mind because several classmates applied the same day or after I did and they have received their ATTs while I'm still waiting. Today is week 12 post initial application, week 4 after graduation.
  18. Timeline for graduation, NCLEX, and 1st RN Job

    For those of you that applied for jobs before graduating, were you only applying to new grad positions? All the positions I see require a temp or permanent license number as part of the application so I'm curious if people just put that they are grad...
  19. As many of my fellow California graduates know, our BRN is obscenely backed up with processing applications. I submitted my application and paid the fee two months ago, graduated two weeks ago, paid the PearsonVue fee one week ago and now the BRN tel...
  20. ATT for NCLEX 2015- California

    I just graduated! Our school submitted our applications 7/2 (I also paid for interim permit) and they are still pending on both my initial application and the IP but they did finally cash my check for the IP. I guess I'll be sitting pretty for a lon...
  21. Nursing Shoes for High Arches?

    Invest in a good pair of custom insoles. I have the same problem and a super plain pair of New Balance sneakers plus custom insoles do the trick. For problems with the laces, look at different lacing methods: Ian's Shoelace Site - Shoe Lacing Methods
