How to pay for nurse anesthetist school (CRNA)?

Published

Hi:

I would like to go to anesthetist school once I am finished with my RN and BSN. However, the cost for these programs is expensive (about $25,000 per year).

Does anyone know of any types of grants, scholarships, etc. that would pay for nurse anesthetist school tuition? I do not know where to start looking for assistance.

I am married with children and will be in my 40s when I am ready for nurse anesthetist school. My husband and I cannot afford the entire tuition on our own.

Any suggestions are welcome. I appreciate any help anyone can offer.

Thank you,

Lori

Stafford loan offers grad school loans, but I believe the max is like $57,000. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

As far as scholarships, I would sign up for fastweb.com. They will let you know all available scholarships based on specific information you put in. It's free.

no, that is the max for undergrad, the max for gad is well over 100,000
