Hi I recently applied for the Spring 2024 cohort and didn't see a thread yet. How is everyone's application going?

It's wild that there were like 4-5 people who got offers last day for previous Spring and seems like nothing today. 

I'm assuming the people that got offers the last day were prob alternate candidates and the first choices rejected their offer. Fingers crossed for you guys LOL I hope you get an offer/people turn down theirs so you're next in line

Did anyone here get a second interview? I had my first interview on 11/17 and got invited for a second interview with the nursing staff on 12/4. Wondering if it was a good sign or if everyone gets a second interview.. still haven't heard back - but when I asked about this 12/8 deadline they kept emphasizing that they would try to get offers by then but don't rely on it basically

Has anyone received an offer from 4ICU RR?

I just heard back, "reviewed, alternate selected", does that mean I'm on an alternate list or an alternate was selected and I just didn't make the cut?

My status changed to "Interview". But not "interview/onboarding". Has this happened to anyone else?

Same. It means we weren't selected.

Yep, mine says "reviewed - alternate selected". It was a good learning experience for me, and to have solid conversations and even interview made it all worth it. I'll try to get in as a staff once I get experience, but honestly, I'm not bummed. 

I also love how they say "alternate selected" when I've been on the end of other rejections much more harsh than that so thanks to UCLA for considering my mental health LOL

Just closing the loop. My application showed "in review" until after 5:00 p.m. today. Not sure at what time changed to "reviewed/alternate selected," but when I checked it again at 6:00 p.m. it had already changed.

Anyone go to WCU and got an offer? I heard in a FB group that UCLA does not take new grads from WCU.

Well that's absolutely a lie LOL I don't even know why so many people have animosity toward WCU students lmao. Anyways, two of my friends got positions at UCLA (we all graduated from WCU)
