Hello everyone! I have been reading the forum postings for some time now and I have received a ton of useful information. My situation is this: I am a prospective applicant into a crna program that is in the process of being reviewed for accreditation (projected start date is January '05). My BSN will be finished in December of this year. I would like to know if any of you guys were accepted pending your completion of a BSN program prior to entry. The program director told me that I could be accepted even though my BSN will not be completed at the time of selection. I feel as though I will be a decent applicant; I have 9 years of critical care experience in university hospitals in various specialty areas, my undergrad GPA to this point is 4.0 and I have a good science GPA as well. The biggest problem I am facing at this point is trying to get all my prerequisites completed in time(I am taking o-chem and physics this semester along with my BSN requriements for a total of 20 credits as well as working full time). This will leave me precious little time to prepare for the GRE which I also plan to take soon with very little study (the director told me that he did not weigh the GRE scores vey heavily-but if I completely blow it when I know that I am capable of much better I will feel terrible. Should I stress myself out trying to get everything done? I guess I'm hoping that I have a legitimate shot at getting in this spring-I would hate to kill myself this fall and still not get accepted. Let me know what you guys think.
