Kaiser anesthesia (kpsan) 2018

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to start a post for those who are applying for CRNA school at Kaiser. The program is now a DNP. They added one more year and a whopping 60K increase in tuition fee. Having that said, I am still on the process of application (awaiting for 1 more recommendation letter).

I just want a support system since this will be my first time and I really want to be accepted in the program. I am currently living in NY but I would love to move back home (Cali) and I told myself that getting accepted in to the program is the only reason I would go back. -_-

Questions:

1. Did anyone got deterred with the recent changes in the program?

2. Would it be a good year to apply? [first year for DNP]

3. What makes a good candidate? STATS would be appreciated.

My STATS

3.7 GPA

2 YRS CTICU (by the start of program] big academic hospital in NY

1 yr in MICU (LA)

2 YRS MEDSURG (LA)

never the head of a committee but a member .. My stats are not as great as other applicants but still hoping for a shot.

Good luck everyone!

I Know.. told myself I will only go back to cali if I get accepted.. but I went on vacation and I realized, I just miss home.

goodluck to everyone!

How many ppl do they pick for the interview? Since it's now DNP, how many spots are there for next cohost ?

My birthday is on the 16th, so I hope I either get an interview off BEFORE, or get rejected AFTER. I never thought waiting would be so hard.

IKR , eventhough we are supposed to find out next week, I keep checking my email like every hour . Haha

I think I remember 70-80 interviews for 35-40 spots.

I was told during the phone counseling session that there would be less spots if the program did indeed transition over to DNP. So there will definitely be less than 40, probably closer to 30 or even less!

Hi guys!

Everyone seems like such strong applicants, congrats on taking the first step and applying! I hope they get back to us before the holidays for scheduling interviews. Good luck everyone!

I just got the e-mail for my interview! I am so excited and nervous!!

I just got an email too! Interview is scheduled for 2/8. :)

Has anyone spoke to any current students or those that have previously interviewed? Wondering if they would share there interview experience... Thanks!

Just got offered an interview my email today, however I turned it down so hopefully that opens up a spot for someone else. Good luck all!

I got a rejection letter. Two years in row ... and I don't know what they are really looking for ... so super disappointed . Good luck to everyone

I'm sorry to hear Fentanyl_CA. After seeing your stats, I'm surprised too that you didn't get an interview. Have you thought about contacting them and asking what you could do to improve as an applicant? I know it's disappointing, but keep your head up!
