2022 CRNA Start UT Health — Houston

Published

Hello Everyone!

I am starting a super early thread for all the anxious people like me (raise your hand if COVID increased your anxiety ?‍♀️). I plan on applying to UT Health Science Center’s CRNA program here in Houston during the feb 2021 application cycle for the 2022 start date... I created this thread so we can all communicate about our process and journey, as well as potentially get advice and stats from those accepted before us!!

My Stats are meh, I am not really sure how I would stand out compared to most of you guys applying so I plan on getting as close as possible to acing my GRE, I’ve been studying for it for about a month now...

my nursing/science GPA : 3.26

CCRN, ACLS, PALS,

by the time I apply I will have worked 2 years as a CV/surgical ICU nurse right here in the med center at a top cardio hospital, trained on CRRT, ECMO, and Balloon pumps.

I plan on taking my GRE between December/Feb.

Will be taking Organic Chemistry and college algebra this fall! Will also take one or two advanced courses in Spring to boost my GPA a little LOL.

UT health is my first choice...

then baylor,

and last choice is tex wes ( only due to cost )

So yeah, lots of work ahead, but I am motivated. Any-who, tell me how your stats are and what you look forward to!

You send everything to the registrar’s office. I was able to e-mail everything just fine.

For all those who’ve been accepted into the CRNA program at Houston can you please tell me what the course schedule looks like. I see it shows 5 days a week for some courses but I’m just wondering specifics that way I know if I’d be able to fit in a working schedule. Thank y’all hope to hear back

It is highly discouraged to work during CRNA school. Some programs will allow it in the beginning, but not when the coursework is heavy and you start clinicals.
