Like to get a sense of how much CRNA education would cost... Since I am not really interested in "brand" or ranking of the program, I am focusing more on finding a best personal match... In this respect, the cost (tuition, etc.) of the CRNA education is a significant factor for me... I suppose the state programs offer the same significant cost advantages over the private programs in the CRNA education... Or can these advantages be matched by scholarships or other special stipends at private institutions...
Would anyone (both current and recent SRNAs) be kind enough to share the tuition and other costs at your program (specifically naming your program would be esp. helpful).... I also would appreciate any other financial considerations and planning tips related to the CRNA education...
Thx. much in advance & blessings to all. -Rebekah

if you search around some of the school's crna websites, most of them will have breakdown of the cost. if i had to guess, i would say any where from 25,xxx to 50,xxx depending on if your in state, out-of-state, or a private school.

Well, if cost is a factor, and all the programs that I have applied to and interviewed with say don't worry about the cost because there will be plenty of funding for you...aka loans and scholarships. There are also many different bonus programs there when you get out. The cheapest program that I have seen is Mayo which the tuition is a whopping $7,000 up to 50,000. The majority of ones that I have seen are between 25,000 and 30,000. There are also living expense loans that you can take out to help with expenses. Hope this helps and good luck!!!
