Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University (FranU) 2022

[Ace, BSN, RN]

Hello all!

Just recently received an email stating that I was invited to an interview for the CRNA program at FranU. It'll be my first interview for a CRNA school so I was looking for some guidance or tips from anyone out there! Any current or former students from the school that can share some knowledge on how they conduct their interview? I'm currently studying CCRN materials based on my area of work, but not sure what exactly I should focus on. I also don't want to undermine all the personable questions they can possibly ask. Anything will help. Thanks! :)

I got an interview as well! Just been looking at CCRN stuff and an anesthesia book I found on Amazon. I’ve been writing answers for all the questions I can think of,  it who knows if that will help ?‍♀️ How’s your studying going?

Nice! Congrats. I've pretty much been doing the same. Making sure I know all the drugs and stuff that's particular to my unit. From what I remember from the open house, they said their clinical questions are specific to our expertise and unit we've worked on, but still can't be too sure!  From what I read in past forums, the interview is pretty laid back and they do not make you feel uncomfortable or stressed at all, but I will be stressed regardless. ?

I had 2 people interview me. They were very nice! I would say just be yourself. I think they appreciated my honesty. Also the interview was tailored to the individual so I’m more sure what may be asked of others.

Not so bad. I wouldn't say I feel 100% confident ?, but they were really nice. After the first question, it wasn't that stressful. I also interviewed with 2 people as well. They asked me a few personal questions and a bunch of clinical questions until I said I don't know, but it was related to my specialty so it wasn't too bad. When is your interview???
