Crna

Hi,

So...I have decided I would like to pursue a CRNA program after talking to multiple CRNAs pros cons etc. But, I'm gonna take it one step at a time because right now...I only have a BA in Spanish and biology!!!

So my question si this...I pursue a BSN via an accleratd route...work for 2 yrs and apply to CRNA programs. Can you work at all during the CRNA programs, like even just a couple of shifts a week? no. perhaps MAYBE during the didactic portion, but not during the clinical portion. you just have too much to do and there aren't enough hours in the day. there are about 2 people in my class that MIGHT work one shift on a weekend every now and again. but that's it. How do you afford the program? loans to the third power. How long is the average program now-a-days, 26-30 months. straight through. summers. winters. springs. falls.

Pls et back to me!!! Thx!
