CRNA Application for Barry May 2022 Cohort

[Kimman21]

Is anyone planning on applying for this cohort. I am trying to add the program in my nursing Cas and Barry is not showing up. Any ideas?

I understand man, I was the same when I was in your shoes. It’s smarter to start applying next year then to take on all that work in a year. 15 months isn’t enough experience from what I have heard from a dozen people and honestly you’ll might be soo tired mentally that it might affect your school. Just my 2 cents. I’d definitely wait and apply in programs like RFU whose deadlines are till January. Even then man I just don’t think it’s a smart thing to do. However, you know yourself more than I do so GOODLUCK in whatever you decide to do. Just know there’s worth in wait.

Does the school review applications that haven’t been “verified” by NursingCas yet? The wait is already killing me!

Why are you already worried? It’s not due till Nov 1?

In my experience schools do not. I think I remember hearing that during the info session. Anyways, I agree the wait is killer and it's a long way (seemingly) to November ?

From past experiences with friends that are currently at Barry, they do interview early. But it seem entirely too soon right now. Earliest I’ve heard were Summer months (late May-June).

Hi everyone!

I just started my application process for Barry in Nursing Cas, Im currently studying for GRE & CCRN. Anyone else studying for those exams? If so, can anyone tell me what is the minimum score for Barry requirements with the GRE? I have been studying since April and have my exam scheduled for July, to give myself some time to study. I am so nervous for this GRE ugh! Anyways its nice to meet you all and good luck to everyone.

Hi Soph! 

To be competitive, I'm seeing schools prefer at least 300 but when I did the Barry info session, I believe she said they want at least 40th percentile which is not as high as 300. Maybe someone else will chime in with somewhere that it mentions in writing on  their site. Good luck on your upcoming tests.

Hey, have you guys completed all the application requirements?

I’m finishing Chem 2 at the end of this month. Taking CCRN in May, GRE by July. I’m planning on submitting my application by mid-July

Hi! 

Quick question how do we know the Chemistry class taken in undergrad meets requirements? I just want to know if I have to retake it and have enough to time to submit my application. Thanks in advance.

Hey ?, the lowest would have to be General Chemistry CHM1045/1046. Their website says Organic or Biochemistry is preferred. They will NOT accept survey to Chemistry or intro to Chem (CHM1025,1030). I would highly recommend that you email them to be sure that your Chemistry course is acceptable. And the lecture course has to been WITHIN 5yrs

Hi Soph ?

They had a info session last month. I have attached a screenshot of what they deem as a competitive applicant. To be safe, I am aiming to score 150 on both sections. Hope this helps!

OMG thank you so much for this. This is super helpful. I missed the info session because I got called in to work, but will be attending the next one God willing. Im going to look up some schools that have organic and biochem online and take it, but first I'll email them to see if my Chemistry is suffice. Thanks again and good luck to you.
