Fort Worth CRNA Programs

Published

Who else out there is preparing to apply to either Wesleyan or TCU for 2008? I'm just preparing to sit for my CCRN (I have my CNRN that Wesleyan will accept but not TCU) & take my GRE. I know the deadline for TCU is October & Wesleyan has moved theirs up to Dec. 1. Not much time left. Anyone out there received any tips for admission?:uhoh21:

Neurogeek, I sent you a PM.

Anyone hear back from TCU, yet?:bugeyes: Also, anyone know about the Ft. Worth programs v. the Houston programs (UT and BCM?) I know the Houston programs are smaller...but which ones are the BEST? Lol...I know there are lots of factors...but any info is good info!

It is hard to find much of a comparison between all of the Texas anesthesia schools.

But looking around online, i did find that Baylor's length of school is 30 months and UT Houston's is 32 months...(think financial, TWU and TCU length of school is 28 months) These schools also have all of their coursework and clinicals right there in Houston, so this could be a factor for you too, and they also have a significantly smaller class size.

All the programs graduate competent CRNAs, I am sure, so deciding where to go could come down to those little factors for you.

Continuing to stalk the mailman...have to see it in writing to make it official in my mind!

Congratulations everyone on getting into school!!! I just heard that I have also been accepted to Mercer/MCCG so I will be making someone on the waiting list at TWU very happy. Good luck to everybody!!!! Have all the fun you can in the next 6 months because I have a feeling we won't have much for the 28 months following that!!!!!
