Did any of you CRNAs receive a nurse anesthetist traineeship during your second year of school. Other than being in school full time, are there any other stipulations? How much is the average award? I do not plan on working when I begin my clinical next fall, and I am trying to pay for everything out of my pocket without getting student loans. My tuition for my Masters degree courses are bad enough now even if I am working full time. Things are going to get much worse when I am not working since I am paying over $500 a credit. I am thankful that I have the option of completeing the 18 university credits prior to beginning the didactic studies next fall, because things would have been a lot more bleak financially!
