Hey everyone!

I created this forum for nurses applying to Midwestern University's CRNA program starting in 2023. Excited to connect!

Thank you!
It says October 31st on their site as of now! Although I swear I read somewhere that the application portion had to be submitted by the 31st and the transcripts could be received by Nov 15 (I think) but I can’t seem to find that now. But like I said, this one is a total Hail Mary for me

That’s great! Hopefully the Hail Mary works out! ? 

I applied Oct 20th, my transcripts got there Nov 1st. Checked my portal today and saw an invite (so stoked!). Anyone has an idea of how many people applied and how many people got an interview invite?

What do you guys think about Midwestern not responsible for students lodging for clinical sites? Do you guys think that could be a deal breaker?

In my experience that seems pretty typical with other applications that I have seen where the clinicals are out of state. I personally have not come across one that says they will cover lodging.
 

So I would say that it is not a dealbreaker for me. One of the main reasons I’m applying here is because their program is a top 20 school and I’ve heard from students who have graduated from their program that the education the provide there is phenomenal which is really important to me! However, I will say because of that additional expense there are two schools that I am applying for that are higher on my wish list than Midwestern. 
 

Im curious how others feel?

Wow that’s very reassuring to know that it’s the top 20 and hearing feedback from students who went there. Speaking of other schools, I attended a conference and South Carolina university if I’m not mistaken do provide lodging for students. They pair them up for clinical and provide lodging. Their clinical sites are 1 to 2 hours away with only one out of state clinical site so I think some schools do provide but I’m assuming they include that in the tuition.

Right and FranU provides grants and tries to pair up students to split costs during clinical when they have to travel. 
 

however, to answer the question, paying for lodging isn’t a deal breaker for me.

It’s under the interview tab, they didn’t send me an email that I was invited but did send one after I selected the date.
