   If schools find out you lied in any part of the application, they will dismiss you. When I interviewed, I find out a student was dismissed when he failed to disclose that he attended CRNA school previously.

2. How much did you save before CRNA school?

   james11417 replied to tofu-tofu's topic in SRNA

   Worked for 7 years. 400k. Wife similar so thankfully I don't have to take out any loans.

3. Should I apply to crna school or wait another year?

   james11417 replied to Katiiieb's topic in SRNA

   Just apply. If you don't get in, you will at least get the experience of interviewing and will know what they will test for and ask. I was in your position and kept waiting and waiting trying to make my resume good enough. I work at a top hospital ...

4. CV ICU vs Transplant ICU: experience

   james11417 replied to CRNAhopeful123's topic in SRNA

   CV/CT is better, but in the end it doesn't matter. Any ICU is good. Just study and know your stuff. I got into 3 out of 4 schools and I have only worked MICU and Neuro.

5. MSN vs DNP

   james11417 replied to TBLV4's topic in SRNA

   Take the program which finishes earlier. You will be grandfathered in so it will not matter at all unless you want to go into teaching, but then you will just be able to do your DNP/DNAP online. I know a few with masters who are taking their doctor...

6. Withdrawal, reapplying, advice?

   james11417 replied to aquaphone's topic in SRNA

   Whatever you do, do not lie on your application. I asked a school I interviewed with about their attrition reasons and they mentioned they had to dismiss one person due to not stating they had attended a prior crna program.

   Funny that racism and anti-diversity is the first thing that comes to people's minds when something goes against them in Southern California of all places. The state where they give illegals benefits.

   james11417 replied to jmelinte's topic in SRNA

   Are you planning to enroll at The University of Scranton for graduate studies? NO, I would like to decline my offer of admission and withdraw my acceptance. Going to a New York school instead as it is more convenient for me.

9. Crna school

   james11417 replied to Courtneyrn9317's topic in SRNA

   So you're interested in becoming a CRNA yet you can't do your own research and want to be spoon fed everything? You'll make a great candidate.

    Why don't you shadow like everyone else who is interested in the profession?

    Heh, looks like I got accepted. Probably go somewhere else, though.

    james11417 replied to jmelinte's topic in SRNA

    I haven't heard anything so I doubt they accepted me. Guess my answers to their 5 personal questions weren't good enough, haha. I was accepted to other schools I preferred though so it's fine. Good luck, everyone.

    Did they email you or send a letter? My interview was horrible so I'm expecting a denial, but heard nothing yet.

    They contacted me late September for an interview. There were 3 days or so to choose from. Not sure if there are more, but I chose the latest one they offered which is next week.
