Graduate Courses

I was just wondering why it's important to take grad-level courses prior to admission to CRNA school. I see it mentioned a lot on these threads as a way to boost your appeal to the admission boards at different schools. If I spent the time and money to take a grad-level Pharm, Patho, or A&P class, wouldn't I have to take it/them all over once I entered the CNRA program? I understand the idea of showing the school you can take graduate courses and do well, but I don't see the point of taking the ones I mentioned and them having to take them again later. They don't transfer, do they?

I've definitely read that some schools will transfer a certain amount of credits to count towards the program. When the time come I plan on contacting the schools I plan on applying to and ask them which class will transfer over. You should do the same.

Unless the program specifically recommends a graduate level course, I think it's a huge waste of time and $$. Most program in the DC-MD area will not accept transfer credits. I only took electives to lighten my load once I got into anesthesia school and I took courses at their campus with other nurse anesthesia students.

If if you have specific concerns about undergrad classes and specific grades, contact the admissions department for your dream program.
