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.
Has anyone with an interview applied to CSUF already? I can't find the appropriate DNP option? Anyone else having this problem?
Yeah, it just opened yesterday with the correct option. After selecting Cal State Fullerton it is the "Doctor of Nursing Practice – Nurse Anesthesia", which is on the second page.
Thank you, that explains why I didn't see it. I started the app last week under the only DNP option available and some of the questions made me think... is this right app?
Now with the 3 year program, does anyone know how many classes we will be taking on campus at CSUF? I don't recall seeing a curriculum list in the app.
I haven't received confirmation from the school either. However, I did send them by certified mail and received confirmation that they were received that way.
I feel like the instructions for the writing portion of the interview are pretty vague. Are we to come up with a program/solution to the issue presented in the abstract? Or is it more addressing the abstract issue with an idea for a study??I'm not even sure how to prepare for that without more information.
