Marian University (MU) CRNA 2024 Start

[givemethegas]

Just wanted to start a thread for Marian University CRNA program hopefuls to help share information. I applied a few weeks ago and got an email saying the application is with the admissions committee and to expect an email about a potential interview in the next 4 weeks.  Good luck everyone!

I think other classes have started facebook groups so everyone could connect and talk.  I just made one so maybe we can get others in our class to join?

For the people who got in, is anyone willing to share their general stats? I interviewed Oct 26 and haven't heard back yet. I have 1.5 years in level I trauma MICU, I am chair of my nursing professional governance council, and have a 4.0 GPA. I also have got an A in grad level biochemistry and I am currently taking Marian's DNP Biostats course. I also have published nursing research. I thought my stats were good but since I haven't heard back I'm getting concerned! 

[ENTUB8, BSN]

You should be super proud of yourself. 

My stats: 3.35 undergrad GPA, 3.67 graduate level GPA ( I was originally in FNP school and took the first 4 courses including patho and pharm) 

unit council/shared governance/charge/preceptor and lots of volunteer experience within my network and I was involved in a study at university of cinci earlier this year. 

4 years neuro ICU experience with 1 year within my experience being agency at a mixed ICU, all level II. 

Keep your head up, I was denied by another school before I got accepted here, and they didn't even bother interviewing me.

Let me be clear marian definitely interviewed me, I didn't even get an interview at other schools is what I am saying.

Did you mention all of this during your interview? I feel like I froze and blacked out and couldn't bring even half of what's on my resume to the forefront of my mind when they were asking ?

Just  found this yay. It's so helpful! Also interviewed (11/2) and waiting. Anyone else heard back since the last group?
