Has anyone applied to Vanderbilt Hospital for the Winter 2025 NRP Cohort and heard anything? Thanks!

I completely get that. That is so nice, to have a state with that. I know in Indiana, where I'm from, usually our stepdown units pt ratio is 4-5:1.

Yeah I guess that's not too bad, it is rlly just one additional patient. I just sometimes hear horror stories of people having like 8 patients haha.
I know Vanderbilt app didn't ask for letters of recommendation etc. Did anyone follow up via email or otherwise to provide something like that after their interview?

Oh gosh, that sounds awful. I did not send any letters of recommendation, but did send a thank you email after my interview. I know in prev. years they have required letters of recommendation, but this year it is not required.

Not yet, but when I interviewed on 8/26 with the PCARD unit they said "we have interviews all through this week and the next week" and then will let you know, so hopefully it will be soon as its nearing the end of this week, and its been one week since interview.
