U of U CCI Feb 2019

[gingernursegirl, BSN, RN]

Anyone applying to the U of U CCI for Feb start? Curious to know what everyone's background is, etc. I will be a new-grad RN in December 2018 with a previous bachelor's degree--I emailed them about applying, and they told me that without a BSN I am welcome to apply as long as BSN is in progress. Anyone know how competitive it is to get in?

I used to work there, and from what I heard the CCI is pretty competitive. You'll be competing with other new grads as well as acute care nurses who want to move to ICU. Good luck!

Thanks for your words! I attended the U of U Health Career Fair today and spent some time at the CCI booth and met the director. She said that they prefer new grads and the vast majority of those accepted into the CCI are new grads. So that's good news for me! :)

Hey y’all. I’m a senior nursing student set to graduate in May and really interested in the internship for the July cohort. Any information or insight into the process or program as a whole would be appreciated!
