Specializes in MSN, FNP-BC.

Can you tell me about why you chose KU? KU is my top choice and Truman is second. I live in NM now but used to live in KC and have family that lives there which is why I'm

Looking at those two schools.

What are your stats/background? How was the interview process?

I'm 26 years old and have and AA, ADN, and BSN. 1 year tele/med-surg, 1.5 year ER, and 1.2 year Level I ICU experience, certifications include ACLS, BLS, PALS, ENPC, TNCC, CCRN. The interview process depending on where you interview is geared toward your critical thinking abilities but if you interview with confidence that goes a long way. My number 1 pick was Truman/UMKC because there is less competition with Med students, residents, fellows for experience, KU is a great hospital but is a HUGE academic medical center with lots of competition I have been told, KU is a great school though, I chose Truman because it's a level I in downtown KC, its a DNP, and smaller class size, I also know several Truman CRNA graduates and they say they felt very well prepared at graduation to enter practice. KU and Truman are both great schools, also apply to Rush in Chicago, Georgetown, and MSU in Springfield if interested. Good Luck
