to current SRNA at Quinnipiac and Missouri State U

[epayou, RN]

I would like to know your experience as a SRNA at Quinnipiac program. How are the instructors in the clinicals? Are they respectful? How is the load of didactic portion, is it manageable? and how many students are accepted? The average nursing experience? how was the interview process, what do they ask?

I know it is a lot of questions. But thank you to all those who share their experiences.

It depends on when you interviewed. They usually give an acceptance the following week or when they're done interviewing prospective students (1st week of December). And, yes I'm currently in the program.

How are you liking the program?

I interviewed at the end of September and received an acceptance email the second week of November and an acceptance package in the mail this past week. I have to send in my deposit by the end of November, but said they wanted to know if I was planning on attending right away because they have an extensive waiting list. It seems they are sending out acceptance letters in waves. I'm sure some people accepted will decline (going to another school, etc.). My guess is that they will send out more letters at the beginning of December. Good Luck!!

Awesome, thanks so much for the information. Unfortunately I haven't heard anything yet; I interviewed mid October. I emailed them last week to ask on the status of my application but I haven't heard back which makes me sad lol. Congratulations to you, though, that is extremely exciting! Are you attending Quinnipiac?

If you don't mind me asking, what is your background? This is my first year applying to schools and I am trying to get a feel for experience/education on others that have done well/accepted into programs.
