Vanderbilt's Nurse Residency Program

Published

Does anyone have any advice on how to make a strong letter of intent for Vanderbilt's Nurse residency program? I know they accept a lot of applicants for each cohort but I'm not sure how many people actually apply and how competetive it actually is. If there is anyone on here that is currently in the program, was previously or knows anyone who has gone through the program, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

The waiting is tough. =)

I know they said mid Apr but I got the impression from someone that it would be earlier. Does anyone know how many people were interviewed? Guess we will find out soon enough. Wish all well.

It seemed to me like they were going to be meeting early next week to make final decisions and we should hear sometime next week. AHHhhhhhh. I want to know now.

Good luck to everyone! Vanderbilt is awesome. Everyone seems so nice there. Although the interview was a bit scary, it was a great experience!

Lovefordogs... My first choice is Critical Care, but I would be happy with any area. They made it sound like there was going to be very few openings in Critical Care and a lot in Medical/Surgical. I felt like my interview went pretty well, the questions seemed really generic though. For example, a lot of the scenarios I gave, fit better into a question that came further along. And a lot of the questions I felt like I could have answered about any patient I've ever had. Oh well... only time will tell. What track did you interview for?

Good luck everyone!!! This wait I think was worse (more stressful) than the interview...Hopefully they'll let us know sooner rather than later!

When I went for my interview, they said that they were originally going to let us know something by mid-April, but that it should be closer to the beginning of April. So, basically sometime this month! lol... My interview was over a month ago, and I swear I have been checking my email multiple times a day for weeks... Call me impatient! Best of luck to everyone, and I sure hope we hear something SOON!:up:
