Roseman Oct 2022 Cohort

First round of interviews are next week?!? Did you get an email for an interview?

Megan McRae · Jun 14, 2022

Yeah I just got out of my interview! It was super fun, I was near the end though and I was so hungry by the time they got to me. But the vibe was overall very friendly.

Do you remember what questions they asked during the interview? After applying on nursingcas, around how many weeks did you have to wait until you got an email for an interview?

Would you recommend your friends or others to go to Roseman for nursing school? The 90% or higher pass rate for tests is scary LOL because other schools are 75% or higher. I'm deciding between West Coast University or Roseman University.. im leaning towards West Coast bc of the 75% of higher pass rate, unless you could convince me otherwise hahaha

I remember them asking what I did to prepare for nursing school, how I inspire people past teams / how to handle difficult people / how I handle a dishonest person / and I think how I’d respond to someone being mean to me

I was in contact with my advisor the day I turned in my application prior to getting the interview and she told me she turned in my information and prepared me saying I’d be in the first interview round so tbh I knew early I’d get one. From application date to actual interview request was about a month since I turned in my application on opening day.

How hard was it to get a job after graduation? Which location for roseman did you get placed in?

Thanks! What’s your ig I’d love to follow you! How hard was it to get a job after graduation? Which location for roseman did you get placed in?

I went to the Henderson campus. The job hunting was a struggle in the beginning ngl. Right after I passed my NCLEX in NV, I moved straight to LA without a job lined up or any connections. It took me a solid 4 months to find a job unfortunately.

Tbh Roseman was "okay." At the end of the day it gets the job done. Roesman does have a good NCLEX pass rate which is what anyone should look at first before deciding on a school. I went to Roseman because it was easy to get in and I could graduate in 16 months and not as many prerequisites too.

I am not a fan of the Pass/Fail grades because this can limit you slightly from getting into graduate school (if that is your long term goal). Roseman said that they will send letters to the graduate schools to state the Pass = 90%. Majority if not all graduate programs consider the Pass as a 3.0 GPA.

The 90% pass rate thing does sound intimidating and as cliche as it sounds, if you put in the work you will succeed. Everyone in my cohort completed the program...except one person but she didn't really even try imho.

I would prefer roseman over west coast and that primarily has to do with the cost. West coast is a lot more expensive than roseman and I believe you graduate sooner with roseman than west coast; which means the sooner you graduate, the sooner you can work and take the boards. Plus when you apply for your RN license aka the NCLEX, you can take the NCLEX a hell of a lot sooner in NV or UT than CA. When I received my ATT (authorization to test) for NCLEX, I received it 1.5 weeks after graduation. Whereas CA peeps have to wait 3 months.

Hopefully this answers your q's ?

This makes sense since you graduated in 2019. I feel like ever since 2020, a lot of nurses quit (or otherwise ?) so it might be a little easier to get a job now. However, also I think it is worth it because 4 months to get a nursing job in CA (especially los angeles) is actually IMO really good! Everyone wants to la job haha! It is my goal as well since I am also from los angeles and all my friends are here! I have a feeling even if it takes time, it will be extremely worth it! Also, when it comes to the masters grading, I think I saw some online ones that don't seem too impossible to get into so we will see how it goes in terms of grad school / DNP.

For this, was it hard to get your NV license transferred to CA? That is my question on how to go about being licensed in NV/CA (or I suppose UT LOL)

Actually, I graduated June '19. Took the boards July and then moved to LA Sept and then Oct I started seriously applying for jobs until Jan. '20 I received a job offer for a med-surg/tele unit at a community hospital and switched jobs a total of 3 times until I finally landed at my dream hospital. Now I'm gonna be working in the nicu this fall. Ngl the market is tough in LA, you do need connections if you want to land big at a good hospital
