Same. Are you from around here or heard anything about it?

How did they contact you about an interview? I haven’t heard anything, not even that I didn’t get an interview.

[TreborNeas]

They will contact over the phone, and eventually through email from what I was told.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the stats they list? 36% attrition rate in 2018 for example.

They are still making phone calls. Interviews will continue April 22 and 24 but will not be in person because of Covid 19. They will be over Zoom. Just got my interview slot.

@kymedic25 What do you think about the attrition at 36%?

I saw that. It was something that I thought about when I applied. It’ll factor into my decisions later on, but for now, I’m just going with the flow.

Your thoughts??

Attrition is something you have to take into account with any school. The worst outcome is failing, which one is not what anyone wants and accompanied with the school debt.

From what I know they accept 20-24 students, meaning they lost 7-9 students in the last cohort but then again scored a 100% on the boards on the 1st try. Basically what this means to me, is that although in all CRNA programs we must be self-directed learners, I would say LMU is one of those that require much more from the individual.

Regarding interviews, they're interviewing 50-60 students.

Did they tell you they were interviewing 50-60 or are you going based off of previous years?

[Jbowlin]

From those that interviewed, anybody hear back yet or know of when we should hear back?
