Hi sbirdsell, I was a Summer III in Summer 2016. Yes you would be able to participate in the program I believe because we had nursing students who were completing the program and only had one more semester to finish before graduating. If you have any...

I've been waiting to hear back as well ever since my status has changed to "Route". It's been quite awhile since we all applied so I'm hoping we hear back soon or get some sort of status update. I called UC Davis HR a few days ago to try to get a tim...

I called the Recruitment Office today 4/24 to ask if all interview offers had gone out and she said they will continue doing so through June since applicants decline or positions are not filled. Also I had some technical issues with my application so...

I applied on 3/13 for MICU and Transplant ICU and I haven't heard back either. Trying to stay patient and hopeful!

So I never updated this, but I didn't withdraw my application and actually got a call from Stephanie a couple weeks after to say I got in. I felt very lucky to be chosen for the Summer III program and it was one of the best things I have ever done......

Congrats vic42975!! As much as I would love this opportunity, I think I'll have to withdraw I don't want to turn down other opportunities, not get in for Mayo, and end up doing nothing this summer. It just pains me to have to do it... Wishing the be...

I just emailed Stephanie to ask how many they selected as alternates this year, as well as how many alternates on average make it into a position in the program. I also asked her if she could tell me what number I am on the list.. If they tell me any...

I got selected as an alternate as well fingers crossed! Anyone know how many people are on the alternate list?

Yes thanks for checking in with them and emailing. Please update when you hear back...I'm in CA as well and I am just ready to find out if I got in or not. I think I refreshed my email about 20 times today..

Ahh! Good luck to everyone. I'm anxiously awaiting for results as well.

On the application website, my application got moved to the status of "interview" as well. Do you think they will actually interview us? A friend did the program last year and she said there was no interview, and she just got an email saying she had ...

Hi everyone, I am applying for summer 2016 and the application has not come out yet but I heard from Sheri that we will need 2 letters of recommendation. Did you guys have to turn in letters of rec as well? If so, is there any specific information th...

Yes I have been volunteering for over a year. I volunteered as an undergrad at a different hospital for 2 years and then I helped to manage the program, so I have been volunteering for quite awhile. I volunteer at another hpspital now and have been t...

I am in the same boat as you. I was pre-nursing looking for a job in the hospital that didn't require any certification. I would suggest a medical secretary or unit assistant, but I heard those require like medical terminology these days. I ended up ...

Yes, definitely talk to your professors and instructors. At my nursing school they said that they have been running the program for a long time and they understand life happens- including the fact that students get pregnant. They said the most import...

No I don't think that's a good idea. Getting a puppy is another responsibility you don't have time for as a nursing student. Working out or yoga or something else might be a better way to relieve stress

I applied to CSU Long Beach and CSU San Marcos ABSN programs. It was a pretty standard application to the CSU. CSUSM didn't want you to fill out the CSU app until you get accepted by their nursing program. CSUSM charged like $120 for their nursing ap...

I would not get white shoes for the hospitals. Dirt and grime is going to show up on them more and might end up looking unprofessional over time

It really depends on your schools you are applying to. If your schools take volunteer experience and you get more points on your application, then I think it would benefit you. Otherwise, if not, I still think there is still some sort of benefit out ...

There is a program called Clinical Care Extenders Externship (CCE). There are a few volunteer locations at different hospitals in Southern California. I did the one in Newport Beach, but I know there is one in Riverside and elsewhere. I highly recomm...

I think it's really important to balance your life when you're in nursing school. Don't overbook yourself with work or other activities because you will feel overwhelmed. Also, when I started 7 weeks ago, I wanted to read every single page assigned f...

I just started my nursing program this semester and I was worried about Pharm and Patho too. I thought those were tough core classes and I really wanted to well on them. Before the program started, I was planning to review my A&P notes to prepare...

Does anyone know if we need to get a stethoscope, scrubs, or skills kit before we start school? There is no mention of this in the welcome packet but I looked at the thread to last year's SJSU incoming class and some students mentioned they already g...

I am on the alternate list and I did get that email about having to attend orientation to reserve a spot. I was going to call ------------- to see if my spot had been moved but thanks for the update. I was going to decline another school this week bu...

I also applied to CSUSM and CSUEB and SJSU and I haven't heard anything from them yet
