You're very welcome. I interviewed 12th afternoon. There's still 2 more days so I'm staying hopeful 🤞. MTSA is my #1 and dream CRNA school.

Anyone gotten a call today? Nothing over here yet 😔

I'm wait listed. So there's still hope. Congratulations to everyone else that got in.

Dang! Well congrats on that, Better than a no! 
 

I haven't heard anything still so I'm assuming no go if they are sending waitlist offers already and acceptance offers.

Actually just got a declination email. 
 

congrats on all those who got offers. This interview went very well for me. Not even a waitlist, was waitlisted at 2 other programs in the past. 
 

stands true that most schools are wanting people who are younger / out of school for less years than they do experience.

I feel like there's definitely some truth to that too. I've seen a few cases where nurses with a year and a year and a half experience get accepted but there's gotta be a few cases similar to yours as well right? Have you been out for a while then?

I've seen it a ton. Literally even with applicants who have the same statistics as me (or less for some) get in with minimal experience. I graduated with my BSN 2015. But was waitlisted at one school as far back as 2021

Hello all! 
If anyone got wait listed, I accepted a spot at a different university and I did get accepted to MTSA. So hopefully my deny will be someone else's in, in this thread! 
Congrats to everyone that got in! 

Does anyone have any information on alternates? How many does a school normally pick?

Chiming in to say don't give up on your journey bc this isn't entirely true. I was accepted this cycle and graduated with my BSN in 2013... It weighs heavily on how you perform in the interview. Use this as motivation to persevere!
