Newman University DNAP CRNA 2024

Published

Good luck to everyone applying to Newman University's DNAP 2024 cohort! In the words of CRNA Jon Lowrance (Anesthesia Guidebook podcast), competition among applicants ends once CRNA school begins. To help cultivate this mindset, this forum is for applicants to share tips and pearls they've found along the way for preparing for the highly anticipated interview!

I'm reading "Thinking, Fast and Slow," "Make it Stick, the Science of Successful Learning," and "Costanzo's Physiology" to prep! Podcasts like "Anesthesia Guidebook," "Core Anesthesia," and "ACCRAC" have been helpful in giving me an idea of what to expect for both the interview and understanding the stress of CRNA school!

What have you found helpful? What pitfalls do you anticipate? What did you most enjoy from your shadowing experience?

Newman's admin assistant has been my point of contact so far. 

Did you just call them or do you have an email?

I just called their director and she said they were wrapping things up today. 

still haven't heard back LOL

I got my denial email. Apparently based on what's happening there, this is a blessing in disguise. I'll get into the right program at the right time. Waitlisted at one age have another interview coming up.  Congrats to everyone accepted and good luck to everyone!

I got a no-interview email and requested an application review. My CRNA mentors were surprised as I was that I didn't get an opportunity to interview as they had helped guide my progress and thoroughly critiqued the various components of my application (statement, resume, transcripts, mock interviews). Whether I am granted the review or not remains to be seen!

We're you able to get a review?

I haven't heard anything yet ?‍♂️

Anybody else not hear anything back yet regarding an interview? I've called/ sent emails to no avail. The whole thing seems odd. Could they possibly still be processing applications?

Just curious, what/who are you sending e-mails to?

I got my denial email today. I think it's safe to say they are done with interviews. 

I've sent some to both the admissions office and the anesthesia department.
