Drexel University 2022 CRNA

[IcuRN.]

Hi everyone! Curious if anyone applied to Drexel's last masters cohort. I saw it open on their website in January with a deadline of 1/31. I was surprised to see a masters class after previous information posted on their website and was curious if anyone had insight as to the change?

It’s a combination of personality and clinical questions. The clinical questions weren’t hard in my opinion, just tested your knowledge of fundamental ICU stuff. 

Thank you so much! Did you hear back from them with a decision already?

[IcuRN., BSN, EMT-B]

Same day. They emailed us in the afternoon after our morning interviews.

Hi! I know this thread is old but I was curious if you remember what day the interview  was? I saw you said you found out same day. My interview is a Friday so I'm curious to know the likelihood of finding out same day or not. Did they call you also? Or just send an email? Thanks!!

Our interviews might've been on a Friday. I don't remember at this point honestly. They told us at the end of the interview day when we should expect to hear from them. And it was just an email, no phone call to let us know of the admissions decision.

I know this a very old post, but I am wondering how rolling admissions work? I've been told ppl who've applied in August haven't heard back yet & it's April. Do I even have a chance, I feel like there would be hundreds in line in front of me? I applied in March. 

[IcuRN., BSN, EMT-B]

It was months before I heard back and was ultimately accepted. Rolling admissions has gotten pushed further out since I applied to the program. Basically Drexel just fills the class for whatever year they want and then will just have you as a candidate for the next year once it's full. I believe they're admitting for the class starting in 2026 now.  If you haven't received a rejection letter, don't give up hope!

I am waiting for an invitation to interview. I am hoping I get that at least. I was told in an email they've started to review applications. I want this so bad. Are you in the program now? How was/is it? 

[IcuRN., BSN, EMT-B]

Yes, I am currently in the program. It's definitely challenging at times but doable. If you're accepted you'll enjoy it.

I'll keep you updated! Thank you for the info! I've been preparing for my interview LOL that I didn't even get yet! But I am so nervous LOL
