Hey! I also applied to UCLA for March 2019

[Jay816, BSN]

cool! which units did you apply to?

[kiddo_nurse, BSN]

I believe I applied to picu and peds hem/onc! You?

[Jay816, BSN]

I applied to peds unit and regular med-surg!

Hey guys! I also applied and chose Surgical ICU and Cardiothoracic ICU. I was surprised with the lack of Med-Surg or Tele units available for this program.

[Jay816, BSN]

Have you guys applied to any other residency programs or know of any opening up soon?

Also, are you guys from Cali or out of state?

[Berniex312, BSN, RN]

Hey everyone! I also applied for the residency program. I chose Santa Monica General ICU as my first choice and med-surg as my last choice.

I am an out-of state candidate from Atlanta, GA :)

[Berniex312, BSN, RN]

Hey dggs33. I didn't see surgical ICU or Cardiothoracic ICU as choices, it just said general ICU when i applied.. just curious, when did you apply?

[dgg33]

I applied the first day. It's for Ronald Reagan SICU/ Cardiothoracic ICU. Was Ronald Reagan not an option and only Santa Monica?

[Berniex312, BSN, RN]

Yeah Santa Monica was the only option for me.. I also applied on the first day..that's weird

[Jay816, BSN]

Yeah Santa Monica was the only option for me.. I also applied on the first day..that's weird

Berniex312 I went to apply the first day too and the only had Santa Monica unit choices, I didn't end up applying that day. When I went to apply later in the week they had Santa Monica and Ronald Reagan units available, so maybe they added the other units after...?
