  1. Rant: DNP is a joke

    There are many DNP and DNAP programs that do not sacrifice clinical experience for 'research' or other fluff. Sudents in these programs tend to get more clinical time before graduating (24 months vs 16-18) with minimal distraction from classes since ...
  2. Texas Wesleyan University CRNA 2016

    Haven't heard a word from TWU, even regarding an interview. They are kind of behind the ball compared to other programs I applied to, but they also take 100 more students than the other places.
  3. LSUHSC vs Bryan College for Nurse Anesthesia?

    What did you decide happyoxide??
  4. Don't like nursing at all, what can I do with my BSN?

    Get an easier job. M-F at urgent care or a doctor's office. Surgery, PACU, Home Health, school nurse, etc. There are a million things you can do as a nurse, so theres no sense in being somewhere you hate.
  5. LSUHSC vs Bryan College for Nurse Anesthesia?

    Congrats! Sounds like both programs have a lot to offer. Is either closer to your home or family/friends? Would you rather have more experience with central lines or regional blocks when you graduate? Also, did the program faculty seem nicer and/or m...
  6. Texas Wesleyan University CRNA 2016

    Yes, and the dates you interview vary depending on your clinical site. The school has to communicate with the clinical affiliates to come up with a date and time, so it will be different depending on where all you applied. I'm pretty sure they interv...
  7. Applying to a program due for accreditation

    Thanks for the input, you make good points. I will definitely take all of your suggestions into consideration!
  8. Applying to a program due for accreditation

    The program's graduates have had good pass rates on the certification exam, and they have had low attrition rates. I don't really know what else to look at as far as getting re-accredited is concerned. My main question is, would the program continue ...
  9. Applying to a program due for accreditation

    One of the CRNA progams I applied to is up for re-accreditation on the first year I would be in the program. I need some advice. Is it risky to attend a program that is due for re-accreditation? If I get in, and they do not get re-accredited, would I...
  10. Most programs want you to have a bachelors in nursing to apply. Others would let you apply with your current bachelors degree as long as you meet all the other requirements. Look where you want to apply and get what they want. Either way, you're look...
  11. Texas Wesleyan University CRNA 2016

    Hmm, still haven't heard anything from them. I got in somewhere else a few weeks ago so it might be their loss for waiting lol. What clinical site are you interviewing for EVOXRN?
  12. Just a few questions

    I cant imagine they would care where you complete your BSN. Science classes, pharmacology, etc are the classes they really care about. I agree that if it was between you and another candidate that were totally equal, then they MIGHT compare where you...
  13. Texas Wesleyan CRNA Interview helllppp!

    Congrats! People who interviewed last year said there wasn't a test. Which site are you interviewing at/for?
  14. Still on orientation....need a letter of recommendation

    Why not get your previous supervisor from the NICU to be a reference if it was only a few months ago?
  15. RN tired of feeling like a waitress

    If you are ashamed to have the word "nurse" in your title, please do something else.
