FGCU CRNA 2019

Published

Hi! I know I am early but anyone looking to apply for FGCU starting Jan 2019? Apps are due May 15, 2018! Anyone know the stats of people who have gotten in and interview tips? Thanks in advance! :)

I got the invite on June 7th and responded back to them on the 12th and still haven't heard back... I just sent a follow up email to make sure they got the first one

Did you reply directly to the email that was sent to you? I would call. I called when I realized I needed to change the date I originally requested.

Who else is interviewing tomorrow morning? I'm praying I can sleep tonight!! I woke up every 2 hours last night thinking I might sleep through my 4am alarm to get to the airport! :D

Hi all! Interview went great and I wanted to share some helpful insight! The whole day was very laid back. You get about a hour introduction with the director and then an opportunity to see the simlabs and campus while waiting for your interview time. It is mostly a get to know you type of interview so no worries or nerves, just be yourself! :)

For the out of state applicants like myself, I stayed at the Holiday Inn located at 9931 Interstate Commerce Dr and it couldn't have been more convenient. The hotel provides free shuttle from the airport and also to the school (and also return pickup). The hotel is located 7 minutes from the airport and 7 minutes from the school. I also scheduled so that I could have one day to see the area and beaches and there is actually a Payless Car Rental located in the the same parking lot as the hotel. I rented a car for the day (24 hours) for around $35 which was cheaper than a one way uber to the beach! There is also a restaurant, pool, hot tub and even a bar (for the post interview celebration)!

Hope this helps and good luck to all!

I think my interview went OK. Now the waiting begins. FYI if you have to leave early, they'll have you interview earlier. I'm currently SUPER early to the airport because I was second to interview lol. Good luck guys.

I'm curious how many people interviewed each day. There were about 20 of us today.

Same here! Seems like there's a lot, plus there's still July interviews? Someone said they are accepted 24 rather than 18, as if that will stop me from obsessing lol now the waiting game !

Wow. There were 10 of us on Saturday. One of the current CRNA students helping said there were about 15 on Friday.

I believe there's only June interviews. There's just the 4 dates on the school website.

I wasn't aware they were interviewing in July. I thought next Monday was the last day.

On Friday they said we should know in 3 weeks if we are accepted or not
