At one of my interviews, a current student as well as one of the interviewers mentioned how things can be overwhelming in the OR for first semester students. Maybe they are working with a topic they haven't yet studied or their supervisors may not be familiar with what has and has not already been covered in classes so they stressed the need to not only study for your classes but study independently for clinical situations in which they find themselves. Maybe the delayed introduction to clinicals can be an upside in that regard. Nova is newer, maybe they saw that as a weakness in other programs and decided they could improve it.
