What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing their experiences with being waitlisted for a CRNA program, sharing updates on the number of spots left and when they may hear back. Some members are also discussing changes to a course in the program and expressing hope and optimism about potentially getting off the waitlist.

Wanted to start thread because I have not come across a forum for the CRNA 2025 application deadline. Good luck to those applying!

Just got a call yesterday inviting me to an interview on October 25th for the Orlando campus. I applied back in July so it's been a loooong wait.

Hi do you mind sharing your stats. I attended the info session yesterday and feel a little discouraged. My GPA for my nursing Associates is 3.7. BSN is 3.1 (had a lot going on, didn't focus on it as I should've) I have 6 years of ICU, Neuro ICU. CVICU at level 1. Only one general chemistry , got a B. But she (admissions person) was very adamant about them  preferring organic or biochemistry. I'm enrolled to take gen chem 2, and currently re-taking A&P1 since it is at  the 10 year mark and will re-take Microbiology for the same reason.

I just finished my interview it was 40 mins, unfortunately I don't think I am going to be accepted I fumbled up on the med calculation question I knew how to solve it but I stumbled around till I gave them the answer. But best of luck to everyone else!

Hello everyone, 

What was the math question like? Can you recall from the top of your head?

Thanks so much for insight! I have an interview coming up next week.

OK great! I only have gen chem 1, so I'm set on taking gen chem 2, and organic. I have CCRN too. No GRE. I'm going to take a grad level course to make up for the BSN. Thanks for replying! Congratulations and good luck!!!

It was something like you have a 70kg patient and you need to give 0.6mg/kg of a medication, how many milligrams are you going to give? You have to do the math off the top of your head, no calculator

Thanks!! I don't think I'll apply. I think I'm going to retake courses and take a grad level course and apply for the next cycle as my BSN GPA is not great.
