Is there anyone with some insights on Minneapolis School of Anesthesia?.

Who are planning to apply there. I would love some info and a chance to network.

Thanks in advance

I got a single page letter. I had been told that if I get accepted there will be a thick envolope with physical exam forms and your letter of acceptance, and if you just got one letter then that meant you were an alternate. I opened the envolope to find a single letter, and my heart just dropped. As I read it though, and it said I had been selected, and enclosed are the physical exam forms, but there weren't. I had called the school today, and I was told that the secretary was so excited to get the letters out she forgot to put in the physical exam forms. I recieved it today in a seperate envolope, so all is well.

I wish you the best Riley, and please let us know either way.

Hi all! I don't post much at all on here (more so just stalk to pre CRNA threads!!) but I just got my letter last night that I was accepted to MSA for this fall!!!!!! My fiance couldn't tell if I was laughing or crying when I called to tell him the great news!! (was doing both!)

Just wanted to introduce myself and say hi to some of my future classmates :)

Hey guys, this is kinda silly-but is there an official form for the letter that we send back along with the check or can we just write a simple letter stating (hell yeah!) I accept the invitation/plan on starting in Aug??

Thanks!!!! :)

hahaha! I love this :) I thought the same thing!! When it read that there was supposed to be an enclosure...but wasn't, that maybe they mailed me the letter on accident!! Sheesh!! :-P

PS, Congrats to all!!! :) This is so exciting, its just unreal....thats the best way to describe it, I've been wanting this--especially at MSA since prior to getting my BSN!! Whew!!!!!

Poop made the alternate list! Still leaves me a chance though. Does anyone have any idea how many alternates they generally select? Congrats to everyone that got in.

arcurtism,

I was told in the interview that everyone that interviewed, and didn't get accepted, is on the alternate list. If a spot opens up the class then they will look at everyone who is on the alternate list, see you has all of the requirements at that time such as your Chem, BSN, ICU experience, PALS, ACLS, and of those alternates who have everything done, they will select who they feel will be a good fit for the class. I imagine they would go off of interview reports to help make their decision. Keep your head up though!

everybody that had an interveiw and did not get accepted gets put on an alternate list. I do not know how many people they take each year from the alternate list. It would all depend if people decline their acceptance into the program.
