I was admitted to both Barry and Wolford and now I have to decide. I've heard both good and bad things about each, any opinions or advice about the faculty/clinical sites/credentials etc? Anything would be helpful at this point!

I would choose Barry because in my opinion I worry about wolford not being regionally accredited as a masters program. If you are going to spend all that money on school and have a choice go somewhere where your degree will count...especially with the push for crnas of the future to have their dnp

And I would choose Wolford because I think a front loaded program gives you a better clinical experience when you aren't having to do cases or techniques you haven't learned about yet. Both schools have good pass rates and use the 2:1 ratio when you're a senior, so really it's up to you. Regional accreditation won't affect where you get a job and if you want a DNAP, either get it from Wolford online or wait until they have the regional accreditation. As far as location, Wolford has Barry beat! I was studying beer blocks on the beach tonight watching the sunset!
