I too have an interview, mine will be on Wednesday. I hope that all goes well with your interviews. We will all do fine, just be yourself and dont show your nervousness.:imbar This board has been extremely helpful. There doesnt seem to be a lot of postings for the Kaiser NA program so I hope that of us few, we will be in the next class together.

I can't wait! Thanks for the great advice. I just had the worst shift ever in the ER, which really gives me the motivation to do well in the interview. I am genuinely excited!!!!

I'm a Sr at Kaiser and LOVE the program and the instructors. I have a few months to go before graduation ! If you get into the program, you won't be sorry! They are very encouraging and willing to help all students. Show enthusiasm! Be professional. Men wear suit and tie, women business attire. (Not low cut hoochie-mama dress!)

is the PLACE to go! They have several HMO's on Oahu, and last time I checked they had openings for CRNA's. A graduate of Kaiser would be so IN for those positions. Unfortunately, I might as well make plans for my post doctoral work at Harvard, because I think I (or my wife) would have about as much chance of being accepted there as Kaiser (based upon my impressions from this board). Does anyone know what the average GPA, and GRE scores were for the last several Kaiser classes (not to mention average level of experience)? I don't know, but would be willing to wager that they run at least a standard deviation higher than the average CRNA class at other accredidated programs. I would make me very happy to be wrong on this one.

there are a wide range of students in my class, some with one years icu exp, to 19 yrs icu.

grades 3.2 to 4.0

the most important i feel is your impression in the interview.

yes you need the minimums, but the faculty can usually pick applicants based on potential. not just paper.
