I figured I would get a thread going as we all wait (not) patiently for interview invites!
Has anyone heard anything yet?
Congratulations to folks whom received acceptance letters (complete with scrolling wolves)! I made us a facebook Group:
FranU CRNA Class of 2026
If you're waitlisted, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. If you didn't get in, keep your chin up, and keep on keeping on. Life has a way of working out how it needs to. But I know the disappointment is really real.

I'm not even sure my Casper test was graded when I had my interview. I ended up hospitalized with food poisoning, and I couldn't take my test on my scheduled date. I was able to reschedule it for the last few days of July, so I still don't even know what quartile I was in, and I believe it takes them weeks to grade the silly thing. I suspect FranU has a much more holistic process than boiling it down to one EQ test, but I could also be wrong!
I personally did really poorly on the Casper and I was waiting for them to bring it up so I could explain why that test was such a poor method of testing one's EI. I therefore don't feel like it had a huge weight on their decision. My Stats: GPA 3.51, Science GPA 4.0, Math GPA 4.0, Nursing GPA 3.4.
4.5 total years of experience, 3.5 in ICU (1 in MICU, 2.5 travel mix but mostly Neuro Trauma ICU). CCRN, GRE 310. Casper -25th percentile (yikes) interview was looonggg solid 50 minutes until I told them I'll have to look it up LOL.

I'm not really certain about that. It was my first interview. I know it was other areas I need to improve on. I did some mock interviews post my FranU interview. If you want, I can send the CRNA information that I used for my mock interview.
My stats:
Cumulative GPA: 3.5, Science GPA: 3.6, Last 60 (All nursing school) GPA: 3.95.
CVICU with all devices: 1.5 years.
CCRN
UBC committee co-chair
No GRE/2nd percentile on Casper.
I personally think I did poorly on the interview, so I felt a denial coming my way after walking out of the interview. I did love the school though, and will apply again next year. I'll use the time between now and then, to improve my candidacy (GRE, improved Casper score, etc).
Good luck to everyone on their journey of getting in! It'll happen when the time is right.

For those who got waitlisted does your email notification say alternate/waitlist?
