   No, this is referring to Fairfield University. Sorry I thought I replied directly to the quote below

2. Tired of searching for CRNA Interview Questions??

   SrNaOnMyWaY replied to crna2blg's topic in SRNA

   They are pretty laid back with their interviews, not a lot of clinical questions for me- I think they base it on your experience because other people in my class did get asked some clinical questions. They also want to know how you react under press...

3. Recommendations for CRNA applicants

   SrNaOnMyWaY replied to CRaus's topic in SRNA

   Hi CRaus, Generally, most programs prefer adult ICU. This includes any high-acuity ICU, including cardiac, surgical, neuro, and medical. There are a few programs that will accept NICU, and I'm pretty sure there are also a few that accept PICU. But...

   SrNaOnMyWaY replied to puppies'n kittens's topic in CRNA

   I did read the entire conversation, if that's what you want to call it. I chose to comment on a single post because otherwise I would be here all day. Trust me, I have plenty to say, but my more experienced colleagues have already beat me to the pu...

   Anytime :) I am in an awesome program!

6. Where did you go to school?

   SrNaOnMyWaY replied to Go-GetterRN's topic in SRNA

   GoGetter, Here are just a couple of things (directly from their website) that jumped out at me when looking at my current program before applying: Selection ProcessThe Program accepts up to 14 students per academic year. Therefore, all applicants w...

7. Where did you go to school?

   SrNaOnMyWaY replied to Go-GetterRN's topic in SRNA

   Yes, all-crna-schools.com was my home page for quite a while. Very informative but verify information you see on there such as application deadlines. I found that some were not updated to recent changes, and had I not double checked the schools' we...

8. MSN SRNA vs. DNAP SRNA Schooling

   SrNaOnMyWaY replied to RN_MEDIC's topic in SRNA

   I am in my 2nd semester of a DNP program, and it is front loaded. My first semester was not easy (just the tip of the iceberg), but this semester is only DNP courses, so it's a nice break. The calm before the storm, if you will. I have been told ...

9. Where did you go to school?

   SrNaOnMyWaY replied to Go-GetterRN's topic in SRNA

   I am attending Fairfield University/Bridgeport Hospital. One of the reasons I chose this school was because they produce independent CRNAs.

    SrNaOnMyWaY replied to puppies'n kittens's topic in CRNA

    Ok, I have to throw in my 2 cents. Are you serious?? This is your argument? Obviously this longwinded bundle of jealousy isn't going to respond appropriately to whatever information we provide him with, if this is what he thinks goes on. The only...

11. crna loan payment plan after graduation

    SrNaOnMyWaY replied to amber2brnbsnmsncrna's topic in SRNA

    You can increase your COA, it just isn't easy. I am going to be about $8K short/year on student loans. I need 6 months of receipts to increase my COA and get more money. It's really scary to know you don't have enough income, but I'm hoping I can ...

    Reason I picked my program: DNP, frontloaded, small class size, invested in students' success, trained to be independent providers

14. Boston-area and GRE

    SrNaOnMyWaY replied to AA012's topic in SRNA

    I used Kaplan for the GRE. I interviewed at both Northeastern and Boston College. They were very similar regarding the interviews, I would say Boston College was a little more laid back than Northeastern. Both were all day long, they tell you about...

15. Tired of searching for CRNA Interview Questions??

    SrNaOnMyWaY replied to crna2blg's topic in SRNA

    Agreed, but not every icu has awesome people in it like yours. You have to be proactive (like Go-Getter), ask questions and do research on your own to increase your knowledge every chance you get. I have been to 3 interviews, and the pattern has be...
