[FIUSRNA26]

Didn't see this topic posted, so posting now! Trying to see who's applying for FIU's CRNA program since the application window is opening soon!

I interviewed on the 8th and in the zoom chat before individual interviews they said fill it out. They said we had 2 hours to fill it out after the interview LOL it was 2 questions

that is how I felt about MU integrated program as well, it is more like frontloaded to me since the first 2 semesters are sim lab with a very little of clinical hrs. 

I just looked at FIU curriculum, it def is very similar to UM curriculum. 

I guess they are not purely frontloaded since I saw other frontloaded program that theri students don't start going to sim lab since semester 3 or 4. 

 

It is super confusing for sure

I also remember this question being asked in the informational session I was a part of. FIU was more frontloaded in previous years but students complained the way it was structured before was TOO frontloaded, and not easy to manage.

The integrity survey could have possibly added points to your application/interview too. I'm not 100% positive that's the case, but I wouldn't be surprised, who even knows at this point ?

Oh I'm absolutely sure it is. I was in the group for a while and I couldn't see the chat. *adds x20 to anxiety

Wait what? LOL 

Oh the survey before the interview... Yes, I filled it out haha

[2023CRNA]

I had interview in the morning, and filled it out during the general session. so it is 4 hrs after interview. I did not really think it matters, if it is they would sent it to our emails. 

but who knows, I think we will all know tmr.

I guess that's why they only allow 4 days for a decision 

Did u put down your deposit with MU? I am afraid that I will be in the waitlist of FIU, then I have to put down my deposit hopefully I get off the waitlist by Jan/2024. 

They said last year they had 20 people on waitlist, and all of them were able to get off waitlist before program starts.

Wow... that's good to hear! Makes sense if people are applying to other programs and getting into their first choices
