Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) CRNA Application 2025

Published

I couldn't find a thread for FGCU Spring 2025 application so I thought I would start one. Is anyone else out there applying?

what is their minimum GRE requirements? I don't remember seeing this but I got a 296

Website says "153 verbal, 144 quantitative, and a minimum of 3.5 out of 6 on the essay portion" but it does not say that on the NursingCAS portion so maybe they went away with the scores.

I got a 299.5! I was 2 points short of whatever their minimal quant score was but was over the minimum score for verbal and writing (barely). Keep your hopes up. It is only Wednesday.

Thank you I'll keep the hope alive!! 

I'll share my stats just because: 2 years local Neuro/medical surgical ICU at level 2 Trauma Center, CCRN, 3.49 cumulative GPA (I've been going to college since junior year of high school), 3.75 total nursing GPA, ASN to BSN GPA 4.0, ICU preceptor, Vietnam nursing externship during nursing school, 200+ community service hours over the past few years, 18 hours CRNA shadowing, GRE 293/3.5

I got an email to interview yesterday and a call from them today. I'm declining my interview. Hopefully that will free up a spot for someone. Good luck!

Has anyone applied to FGCU and still not heard back if they have received an interview or not? It's now the end of August so I just sent a follow-up email inquiring about my status.

Hi everyone, 

I am not applying anytime soon as I still have a few classes to retake. But, I was wondering if anyone had any insight how the grades are calculated? I currently have a FGCU mentor that completed the program but she wasn't able to tell me how the committee decides grading. I was not sure if the classes that have been re-taken replace the old grades or if it is just an average of the two. I have attempted to reach out to FGCU to ask but have not had a straight answer. 
 

FGCU is my first choice, but I know that my grades leave much to be improved on. Studying for the GRE and hoping to really well on that to hopefully balance myself out. 
 

I will say that the past/current FGCU student I have spoken with said it was the best decision they made. The classes are brutal, but that towards the senior year it balances itself out. Also, almost all of the senior classes have been offered jobs. 
 

Just trying to decide if I even stand a chance. 
 

best wishes to all of you!

I figured we were not going to hear anything this weekend hopefully tomorrow I applied in January so I am definitely a little bit discouraged that I haven't heard back but also so far it seems that they have only called for interviews during two different days
