Have you heard of anyone deferring their acceptance to the following semester?

Not really. You have to re-apply and if you’re re-applying CCRN is required.

Hello Forum. I am applying for the January cohort. My stats are overall GPA is 3.2 and BSN is 3.5. I have almost 5 years experience in ICU. But a total of 8 years in nursing. I have not taken my GRE yet. What are my chances?

Depends. You need to take the GRE before applying and it sounds like you need to have all the other prerequisites completed as well before being officially considered. (This is new as of this week, I spoke with the admissions counselors).

Your GPA is pretty good. You need to get as close to 300+ on your GRE as you can.

I am a 2nd semester student at Keiser. I would recommend taking the CCRN to make you a little more competitive. 5 years of ICU is perfect as far as experience goes. If you don't have any Cs in your transcript for science courses, your GPA should be fine. It all depends on how competitive other people who are also applying at the time of your application are. I asked about the C grades because here at Keiser, you're only allowed to have one C, if you get a second C you will be kicked out! So, they really look at your transcripts closely. But if you do have Cs, don't let that discourage you!

GPA of 4.0, perfect GRE scores, and people with many years of ICU experience, can still fail out. MOTIVATION has been proven the best predictor of success in CRNA school. Hope this helps!

Question to the students that are currently in the program- ?

How many students have been kicked out in your class?

What is your class schedule like/ study schedule?

Is getting an A in the classes as long as you study not unheard of?

Thanks so much for your insight!!
