I received my invite for surgical today! This would be a dream come true! I believe I saw that they updated saying that interview invitations will be sent out next week too, and even up until the week before interviews in case anyone drops out.

Hi, I actually had to turn it down because I accepted a position for another hospital closer to me due to personal reasons 😢. So someone else should be getting my spot.
I think the parts that they said to focus on for points I had a lot of. I focused on answering my questions very well. My cover letter and my questions I poured my heart into them because they were all very personal for me. My experience as an extern I had 400+ hours, and I also have hundreds of hours in volunteer work as an EMT. I also do other numerous volunteer work (all health related). I believe it was for medicine which was my top choice, but they did say there was more opportunity in medicine if I recall correctly. I also have a BSN program in mind and have already started the process of applying which I mentioned on my resume.
I strongly believe Stanford tells you what they are looking for and what they weigh heavy on so you just have to take the time to really answer those questions and get experience/volunteer work to add to your resume.
I wish you all the best of luck! Whoever gets into the program support each other along the way. Transition from student to new grad Is hard!
Whoever doesn't get in don't give up things happen for a reason and a great opportunity will eventually come up for all. ❤️
