Hello. Starting a thread for those applying to the August cohort. The dates for the upcoming webinar should be posted soon. 
I will be graduating with my BSN June 2025. Former UCSD employee.

What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing the impact of a hiring freeze at UCSD on the new grad program, with conflicting information about whether it is affected or not. Some members report receiving notifications about the cancellation of the August 2025 cohort, while others remain hopeful and positive despite the uncertainty. There is also mention of schools being informed before candidates, adding to the confusion surrounding the situation.

I'll be applying too, I graduate with my BSN in April 😊

L&D, hopefully the unit is hiring new grads when the apps open. Hbu? 

Yes fingers crossed! I'm hoping for oncology.

I gave birth at Jacob's in 2020 and 2023, L&D does hire new grads! Some of my nurses had a new grad that would shadow them. 

I am trying to keep all options open, but my heart has always been in hem/onc too. Last cohort they were hiring for my dream units surg.onc/medsurg onc and BMT.

Yess I know they hire I was just a volunteer recently in postpartum, at Jacob's for a few months & loved it! However, the nurse manager told me it depends if they are in need for nurses around that time. Hopefully both units will be hiring 🤞🏼

Hello! where can I find the link for the webinar? thanks 

I'm so sorry I've been MIA so I was not able to update on the webinar. Applications are open until midnight I believe. But I've seen them open for longer in the past.
