Just want to make a spot for applicants to Newman's CRNA program in 2018. So we can keep each other updated on progress through the application process. I have my app submitted and the wait until September is almost as bad as waiting for NCLEX results. If anyone has any advise or updates to add please do!

rawz2014, APRN, CRNA 61 Posts Specializes in Crna. Sep 15, 2018 We use apex for our board prep. apex is pretty legit. Newman helps you alot- but you have to put the time in. no way around it. You'll use apex all the way through school, and they prepare you. but its a 24 month program- so you really have to work hard.

Do you have any idea when they are changing their program to a doctorate?

Should the program you are paying tuition too rely on a third party to prepare you for boards?
rawz2014, APRN, CRNA 61 Posts Specializes in Crna. Sep 16, 2018 ??who cares if they go out of business. Apex just supplements what we do. We would probaly just pick a different board prep. Apex is just something we use to supplement everything else. Could have just as easily been prodigy, valley or something else. Or nothing. Could have just been a text book. Lol.
rawz2014, APRN, CRNA 61 Posts Specializes in Crna. Sep 16, 2018 Not sure not next year but maybe year after that? It will be soon- there prepping for it. Then it won't be a 24mth program but a 30or 36 month program
