Hi,

Wanted to start a forum for those applying to MSA for the 2024 cohort. Anybody else surprised that they switched the start date from January to May?

yup, I submitted my application, but the school pro will not be on my list anymore.

Why not?

The start date was adjusted after the first few cohorts of the DNP classes began to complete their clinical. Students were able to meet required hours in less than the time predicted and the school was able to slim down the DNP credits. This change occurred without eliminating any anesthesia credits or clinical hours for students. If anything, this is a great adjustment for future students. It makes the program less expensive and more concise.

So you'd much rather pay $20,000 more? I think it's a great thing they did and shows they aren't a money hungry program. 

Hi guys, can you guys share tips on how to be a more competitive applicant? I'm planning to apply to MSA in a year or so

 

thank you!!

no, because I wanted to start school early. I wished they will start school

4 months earlier instead. but I forgot the program is 39 months. Congratulations!! that is a nice change

Hi, they sent out rejection emails on Wednesday. If you didn't get one of those you are probably still in the running!

I got a call last week with an offer for an interview, mine is scheduled for the first week of December! Has anyone heard anything about their interview style? The email I got said to plan for 30 min... which seems quite short but overall will just plan for an hour or so total.

I got a call this week to schedule an interview. Mine is 12/8! I've read from previous posts on here and from a fb group that it is most personality questions.
