Just wanted to start a thread for those who are applying to the cohort starting in 2020 for the Medical University of South Carolina CRNA program...reaching out to anyone who plans to apply.

Sure! I got my interview invitation on Nov 8, 2018, but I have no idea what their schedule is this year. I had 1 year of ICU experience when I applied. I had an MSN and CCRN though. I know they really like CCRN and high acuity ICU experience.

Are you liking the program so far? Are you from the Charleston area? Sorry for all my questions ? thank you!

Yea I like it! It's not without its issues, but every program is like that. And I am not from Charleston originally, but the first semester is entirely online (with the exception of the first week of on-campus orientation), so you have time to move and everything.

Oh I didn't realize that! Very cool. Thank you for your insight ? I'm so excited about the program and really hoping I get the chance to interview.

Soooo....I called MUSC to find out when we should be hearing about interviews. I was told that they were still reviewing applications and it would be a couple more weeks...smh ?

Maybe we will get lucky & this will be the week we hear ?

My advisor is the person who is doing the initial screening of all applications and chooses which ones to send an interview invitation to. When I met with her last Thursday, she said she was a little over halfway through ~150 applications.

Wow! I can't imagine reading that many essays/applications. It must be hard to choose, as I'm sure they get lots of qualified applicants!

I got put on the alternative interview list as well. This is my second year as an alternative. So grateful I got into TCU. Didn’t realize how competitive MUSC must be! Good luck you guys!
