  1. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I think those people who heard back were prioritized because they applied by the priority deadline. During my interview, I believe that she said that we’d hear by phone first, regardless of the decision. But as I think about it, it certainly is ...
  2. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    It’s probably wishful thinking to believe they’d call us this late, but I hope I’m wrong!
  3. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I get what you’re saying. It’s a little different given the timing of their applications vs other application cycles.
  4. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Well to be fair, I think them sending out updates on the process would open the gates for way too much communication from us overly anxious candidates, haha. Some people (like me) interviewed close to 2 months ago, but others interviewed only 2 weeks...
  5. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    It’s fine, everything’s fine… 🥲
  6. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Seriously! They did say we should hear by 7/22 AND they already reached out to someone who applied earlier so perhaps there is a good chance they’re just waiting until Friday?
  7. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Anybody? 🥹
  8. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Congrats! This is amazing - I’m glad that you’re in after waiting so long! I imagine they called you first because you applied before the priority deadline?
  9. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I heard directly from the program on 7/8 that we would know “within two weeks, but hopefully sooner”, so we definitely should know by this Friday. Of course, none of this is written in stone and things change all the time, so who knows 🙃
  10. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I love that they have you such fantastic feedback! Sounds like you addressed their advice marvelously (and successfully!)
  11. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    This makes a ton of sense. I also had a fantastic experience from Pitt (I went in person for a CRNA-related event as well as virtual interviews). Out of curiosity, did you get any feedback regarding why you weren’t admitted? I know some schools...
  12. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Same - took those classes and also a research course. I do hope it helps my chances. I know Pitt uses a point system so I’m sure it has a tangible benefit in the selection process. Got it - what made the say no the the program you got into?
  13. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Congrats! I’m sure you’re happy. Were you accepted part time last year or did you just take courses as a non-degree student? I was under the impression that this was a guaranteed admission for the following cohort.
  14. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    You’re one of the lucky ones! And you’re right, it’s tough to make a guess on how many spots are available because we don’t know how many offered spots were declined from the first round! That’s sorta promising that there are probably more than ...
  15. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Portion of the late April group (unclear if all of the group or a portion of the group are waiting on decisions) Then everyone from the May group and both June groups. So 3.5(ish) groups, which is likely ~70 or so people waiting to hear back. ...
  16. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I was late May and I am already going crazy! Id guess that’s still good news for you as you’re still in consideration. Do you know if anyone from your interview group has heard about decisions?
  17. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I’m hoping before the end of this week, but my money is on next Tuesday or Wednesday 😆
  18. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    As an update, I reached out to the admissions office and got a response stating that they're still in the process of selecting students and they are in discussions of how many students they feel comfortable accepting. Sounds to me like they have a lo...
  19. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Definitely seems like there was a very strong pool this year. Or perhaps they got more applications than they expected after the second deadline. I'm really starting to see the value in priority deadlines, haha.
  20. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Thank for doing that recon! Allowing themselves two full weeks from the final interview date to make decisions makes total sense. Of course, every second feels like an eternity, haha. Here's hoping that we hear back tomorrow!
  21. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Thanks for chiming in, that’s very helpful in easing out anxiety, haha. I assume you applied again this year as well? Did they say anything to you or give you feedback in why you weren’t accepted last year?
  22. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    That might be true. They may send all the emails out as a blast and then slowly call individuals
  23. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    This forum is relatively anonymous and everyone here seems to be really on board with transparency, so if someone got a rejection letter I think they would’ve posted it here. Also, they specifically said that they would call us before they email...
  24. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I sure hope so haha. Seems like they like Thursday as all the interviews have been on Thursday as well? Haha
  25. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    I also haven’t heard anything. It’ll be a long weekend if they do not reach out by tomorrow!
