Louisiana State University (LSU) CRNA - 2025

Updated:   Published

What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing various aspects of the CRNA program at LSU, including concerns about communication, waitlist status, financial aid, clinical rotations, and housing arrangements. Some members are seeking information about the program, while others are sharing their experiences with the admissions process and preparing for the start of the program in May. Additionally, there are discussions about filling out FAFSA forms, clinical site rotations, and the possibility of finding roommates to share rent.

Starting for updates as the deadline just passed! 

Anyone else receive an interview link? I received one the last week of May, and my interview is mid June. Any advice on the interview questions?

Anybody hear anything this week yet? I wonder if we will since it's a holiday weekend coming up.

The way they notify people of acceptance or denial after the interview is kinda messed up. I interviewed on July 16th and I haven't heard anything back. Luckily I have been accepted somewhere else.

Has anyone reached out to the school to see if we even get notified of denial or waitlist? Just curious how long we're going to be waiting to hear anything, if at all.

I sent an email on Aug 30 and got an automated reply. I figured it'll take a few days to hear back due to the holiday.

I looked on the thread from last year and they were calling people with acceptances through the middle of September and then sent out a waitlist email on September 27th... This whole process does not inspire confidence in the school being a well run machine

So I read from another CRNA school this and it seems this is what LSU is doing also. It's stated "Admissions are conducted  on a rolling basis and the admission cycle will remain open until the cohort is filled and a waitlist is populated. " All applicants will be notified via email and mail regarding final selection decision.”

I was told by others who reached out to the admin team that they "should" have everything finalized by mid-September. 

I was also told by someone who applied and interviewed last year that they asked the interviewers pros and cons of the program, and the interviewers stated that a con was "it's LSU, so you know..." in reference to their organization (or lack thereof) and how they conduct things as a program. 

They already have the Summer 2026 application open on nursingcas LOL. I have already started submitting applications to other programs and not counting on just this one program anymore.

Yep, fortunately I accepted another program as well. Not a fan of their admission process.

No I didn't hear anything back and my interview was back in June. While waiting on LSU I got accepted into two other programs and I decided on one of them.
