What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing updates on the waitlist movement for a specific program, sharing experiences of getting off the waitlist or being accepted, and asking for advice on the interview process without disclosing specific information due to signing a waiver. Some members are providing general tips for the interview process, such as studying specialty topics, CCRN material, and ACLS protocol.

Here's a thread for those of us applying to FIU's CRNA program for Spring of 2025. Good luck to everyone!

Just got accepted and taken off the waitlist this past Tuesday! Don't give up hope for those still on the waitlist. You just never know!

Do you know how many people were on the waitlist? How many people applied vs interviews offered

I think last year about 520 applied, 96 interviewed. They can accept a max of 55. While I know some people got off the waitlist, I don't know how many.

Over 500 applied and ~96 of us got interviews. From there they admitted 55. So essentially if you get an interview you have close to a 50/50 shot of getting into the program.

Over 500 applied, 96 interviewed, and 55 were accepted. Roughly 6 people came off the waiting list I believe. 

Hi, 

For those of you who interviewed at FIU last year, can someone please share their experience with their interview style and any tips? Thank you!!

I got accepted last year and I wish we could help but we signed a document saying we can't share anything. But good luck!

Got off the waitlist today but denied my spot. Hopefully it goes to the next person! Good luck 🙂

Hi, since you denied your spot, do you mind sharing what the interview process was like ?

I know you all signed a paper saying you won't disclose any information about the interview, but any insight you can provide will help and I'd greatly appreciate it thank you.

I got accepted but just recently denied my seat due to getting into another school closer to home. This should open up a seat for someone on the waitlist.

Hi I was wandering if you can share your experience for the interview, and don't worry I don't want you to disclose any information since I'm aware they made you sign a waver, as a fellow ICU nurse I'd greatly appreciate it, thank you

Whether we were accepted or not we can't legally say anything about the interview process. Just like most interviews the only advice I can provide is to study your specialty (disease processes, meds, any special interventions), all CCRN material, and ACLS protocol. Good luck to you all!
