Hey guys! I know everyone has heard many things about crna school and I just wanted to know more . I just started my ADN program at a community college and I hope to get my BSN right after. I am 21 years old and I hope that yiubguys can help me. Do crna schools care about your GPA in your ADN program? Or do they only look at your BSN program GPA? Just need to know this because the ADN program is kinda tough. My current GPA for all my undergrad coursework is a 3.1. Anything helps guys thank you!!!!

My best advice is to put aside your CRNA dreams, just for the moment. While it's great to have high aspirations, it is imminently more valuable as a pre-nursing student to focus on the matter at hand. That being achieving your first goal of ADN with the best possible GPA, passing the NCLEX, and practicing as an RN.
Next step: BSN, more RN practice. Experience every step to the fullest. Who knows? Perhaps CRNA will not be your ultimate goal after all.
Baby steps.

There is a forum for CRNA students. They would probably be able to answer your question there.

CRNA schools will look at your overall GPA (that includes prerequs, ADN, and BSN), and your science GPA.

Yes they will care about your GPA. But PLEASE, do as roser13 said.
