National University CRNA - 2026

Updated:   Published

Hi everyone I thought I would start a thread for those applying for the Winter 2026 cycle. 

Has anybody tried to check their application status on the NU website and cant access it even though you created an account and submitted an application directly to the school besides the NursingCas one?

Someone posted it on Facebook about an hour ago.

I haven't seen updates on NursingCas or other places, was it a private facebook group?

Got a rejection letter just right now so they are definitely sending out letters. I wonder if NursingCAS is automatically filtering out applications because this is way faster than their previous timelines. NursingCAS also does not do grade replacement so it completely tanked my science GPA despite all of my retakes.

I received a rejection letter as well. NursingCAS definitely limits my options. I had an interview last year but was not selected for one this time, even though I made several improvements to strengthen my application.

Yeah, I'm really bummed they moved to NursingCAS. 

Specializes in ICU/Cath.

Rejected as well; would be nice to know their process if they apply through nursingCAS and verify with a real review. C'est la vie.

They manually review every transcript for every applicant

Where are you getting this information from? I haven't seen it on the school's site but must've missed it.

It's not on the website; I asked what the process is. They mentioned that they don't trust NursingCAS auto-calculations so they verify every transcript against the NursingCAS report. 

Specializes in Surgical/Trauma ICU.

I received my invite to interview last Friday. For those who have interviewed with them before, what type of interview style is it? Emotional Intelligence/Clinical questions? Thanks 🙂

Congrats! Can I ask what your stats were? I saw someone who said they had a 4.0 science and a 3.85 cGPA get still get rejected. 

A friend told me he was asked mostly clinical questions when he interviewed last year.
