UCLA New Grad RN Fall 2021

Published

Hi,

Is anyone else interviewing for a new grad RN position at UCLA? I have an interview scheduled in a couple of weeks for the ICU and I haven’t seen many people talking about their new grad program so I thought I’d start a thread ?

Only an appointment for occupational health. Probably after this week we’ll hear something?

I haven’t gotten an email for occupational health either, just the offer letter, anyone else on the same boat?

I received my offer letter, occupational health appointment, and onboarding paperwork to sign through the UCLA portal they emailed me. Hopefully, you'll get something similar soon!

Hi, for those who applied to the new grad program, were you allowed to have any sort of RN experience or was it strictly no experience in order to apply?

Hi everyone! I received a call today with a verbal offer for the perinatal unit at Ronald Reagan! The unit director told me that HR will be sending official offers with start dates by Friday of next week! I'm sure other units will start reaching out this upcoming week! ? good luck! ❤️ 

Hi! Congrats on your offer. I was wondering if you had 1 or 2 rounds of interview?

Hello everyone! I am a nursing student graduating in may 2022. I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight on when you graduated and what application cycle you applied for? I see on their website they are accepting applications in March for the Summer cohort but I am not sure if that is the cohort to apply to. Thank you for any info and good luck to all!

Hi! I graduated in may of 2021, and signed up for the NCLEX right away and couldn’t take it until august. Most residency programs want you to have taken your NCLEX by your start date. I applied for fall programs but I was cutting it really close on most of the dates having not taken my NCLEX. The Winter programs mainly start in November so those were good ones to apply for on my timeline! Hope this helps

How did your interview go? How did you find out about the UCLA nurse residency program. It seems like it is hard to find out about the programs at the UCs, so I am also applying out of state. Please let us know how the interview goes the kinds of questions.
