Chances of admittance to CRNA school after previous dismissal

[JaySRNA]

Have a classmate who was dismissed from our program due to constantly being late to class, clinical and even had even missed. He made he had a 3.7gpa as far as grades during anesthesia school, and after 3 months of clinical had overall good rating on his evals from CRNA's clinical instructors. I just wondered if anyone had any information as to how difficult it would be to be accepted to another school after dismissal from a program?

I dont think it would be that searchable. It would take someone from the old school recognizing her on an on-line database and looking in to it. that database being a license body.

because of ferpa, the school cant access a database with all your schools listed.

Possibly, except that part of the policy at each school is that you must submit ALL previous transcripts, and failure to do so could result in being kicked out of the program if caught.

what would happen if one had already graduated and this problem was found?

I had no idea so I called my sis who is a prof. at a Texas Univ. and she said that they can withdraw your degree. Actually make it null and void. Wow! That's pretty crazy. But according to her if the univ. bylaws state that you must submit all transcripts and you don't, it's considered faslification. Sounds pretty harsh to me..........

That is demented. What would they likely do? If the degree was taken away, would licensure follow?

If one commits fraud and that is what it would be considered, then even if they have graduated and passed the licensing exam they would be subject to being stripped of their diploma and then that would cause the state to cancel their license as well. No diploma and therefore grounds for having license cancelled as well. It is not demented at all. If one is not truthful when asked to provide all information, then what else would they be willing to withhold at a later date?

Have seen others get into programs later on that had to leave previous programs, same thing with RN programs as well. With good reason and a change if needed to whatever was the causitive effect, can usually have a positive influence on getting selected.

We see things like this happen in the world of international nursing as well. To leave out anything is the same as having not been truthful in the application.

The other and bigger issue is that a full credential process is done before you get hired in the job as a CRNA and they will be investigating everything, and I mean everything. You will need to account for every bit of schooling, and every license that you have ever held, even if it was 20 years ago.

Hi. Does anyone know of a situation where a SRNA was dismissed from their anesthesia program for either didactic or clinical reasons and was successful at getting admitted to another CRNA program? Is there a precedent anywhere on this? I am more interested in the clinical aspect though both instances would be good to know. thxs.
