I am graduating with my ADN this August and it is time for me to embark on my RN-BSN academic journey. I aspire to enroll into a CRNA program in the years to come, however, I was just curious if there are any specific criteria that CRNA programs require that I should be cautious about when choosing an online RN-BSN program, aside from being CCNE accredited? I know that CRNA programs probably vary in terms of what they require for acceptance, I am just looking for some insight to help me choose a BSN program that will not hinder my chances of CRNA school. Thanks! 0 Likes
BigPappaCRNA May 6, 2020 It really does not matter. You will be fine, no matter where you choose. Maybe, MAYBE, you stand a slightly better chance getting your BSN from the same school in which you desire to attend for CRNA, but probably not. 1 Likes
guest769224 May 6, 2020 Just make sure your BSN program awards letter grades (and of course is accredited). There are BSN programs out there that award Pass/Fail degrees, equivalent to a 3.0 GPA. That would pull down your GPA for admission to anesthesia school and make you less competitive. 2 Likes
