  1. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

  2. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It’s probably wishful thinking to believe they’d call us this late, but I hope I’m

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I get what you’re saying. It’s a little different given the timing of their applications vs other application

  4. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

    It’s fine, everything’s fine…

  6. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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

    Anybody?

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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

  9. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

    I love that they have you such fantastic feedback! Sounds like you addressed their advice marvelously (and

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

  12. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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 -...

  13. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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!...

  15. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

  19. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

  20. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

  22. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    That might be true. They may send all the emails out as a blast and then slowly call

  23. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Spring 2023

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    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...

    Living2Learn replied to Living2Learn's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I sure hope so haha. Seems like they like Thursday as all the interviews have been on Thursday as well?

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