Spring 2014 New Grad Residency Programs -Denver

U.S.A. Colorado

Published

Hi all,

I am finishing up a BSN program in Arizona and will be moving to the Denver area after graduation. My husband has been transferred and is already working there.

Thus far I have applied to UCH's residency and Children's. I did my preceptorship in a level 3 NICU and really hope I can get a position in a NICU. Wondering if there are any others out there not so patiently waiting? I thought obsessing on here might keep me from checking my application status 20 times a day. I know they posted time frames for scheduling interviews - doesn't seem to help:->. Gonna be a long couple of months.

Also, anyone applied/accepted to these programs (or others) in the past have any tips, advice, words of wisdom. I'm a strong student academically, lots of volunteer work with children, 2nd degree mature (aka older) student. Any insights on the type of students that usually get accepted to these programs?

I think Children's said they would let us know about interviews this week. Right?

Hi! Did you apply to the UCH-Denver residency or the UCH-Colorado Springs Residency program? I've applied to the CS one and they are requiring reference screenings first. I feel so nervous! Good luck finishing your classes!

Jude19 - the week of the 9th is what I have written down. I'm on pins and needles waiting though. Hopefully we don't have to wait all the way to the end of next week.

hwngrl - UCH Denver. Good luck:)

I now have two days left of actual class (and a group project to finish), then and Kaplan class next week! So ready to be done.
