  1. University of Pittsburgh CRNA 2019

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

    If I remember right, their web site says that those that applied by the early Feb 15th deadline are supposed to receive a response by June 1st. I've been considering that the expected time frame for...

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

    I know they were in the process of scheduling another interview day for sometime in May, but hadn't established a date quite yet. My guess is we'll hear back shortly after that. Hope we all get to...

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

    I haven't heard anything yet. I thought the deadline for decisions we were told was June 1st. Did you interview in the morning session or were you in my afternoon group in

  5. University of Pittsburgh CRNA Program 2018

    jmelinte replied to jennymellow's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Do you mind if I ask when you interviewed? I interviewed April 13, and we were told we'd hear back by June 1st. My understanding is that they did one interview day at the end of March, and will do one...

  8. University of Pittsburgh CRNA 2019

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

    I think it went very well. The staff was very welcoming and put together a great presentation of the program, and tried to diffuse some of the nerves during the actual interview process. The interview...

  9. Thank you letters with large panel interviews

    jmelinte posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I have an interview coming up, where I will be in a large group of candidates. We will each take turns rotating through several separate rooms, eventually meeting with all the school's faculty. I am...

    Nothing so far, but I do know they were interviewing until the end of March, so I bet they'll make decisions in the next week or

    I'm 34, have been an RN for close to 8 years. I did 4.5 years in an endoscopy/medical procedures unit doing conscious sedation, and have since been in a med surg ICU with some cardiac thrown in. My...

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

    I got a phone call yesterday from one of the faculty members to set up an interview. Sounds like they only have one date right now (4/13), with 9 candidates going at 8 am and 9 more at noon. They will...

    No word yet for me either. Hopefully we all get our acceptance letters in the next couple of

    jmelinte replied to Thevigilante's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I definitely got the "no news is good news" thing from Dr. Bruno. My interview was a couple of weeks ago, but I haven't heard back

  15. Ysu/ St Elizabeth CRNA 2018

    jmelinte replied to Thevigilante's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Congrats! My interview was at the end of February, so by your timeline, I'm hoping to hear in the next few weeks. I'm hoping the quiz doesn't hold too much weight. I definitely had to guess on a...

  16. Ysu/ St Elizabeth CRNA 2018

    jmelinte replied to Thevigilante's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    That's what I thought as well, but Dr. Bruno mentioned the last interview being mid-march. Maybe they extended their dates from when I initially scheduled

  17. Ysu/ St Elizabeth CRNA 2018

    jmelinte replied to Thevigilante's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Has anyone heard back yet? I think my interview went fairly well, and I believe the last one is mid-march. The director said no news is good news until then, but that some rolling admissions are...

  18. LaRoche CRNA program

    jmelinte replied to Oldie79's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Just wondering if anyone has heard back yet. I know interviews are going through the month of March, but in years past, they have extended some rolling admissions along the

  20. Ysu/ St Elizabeth CRNA 2018

    jmelinte replied to Thevigilante's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Excellent, that's exactly the info I was looking for. There are some old threads for this particular school that reference students being unhappy with the program. I'm curious to hear some more recent...

  21. Ysu/ St Elizabeth CRNA 2018

    jmelinte replied to Thevigilante's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    How was the mix of personality vs technical questions during the actual interview? Do you mind elaborating a little on the structure (panel vs short sessions, etc.)? I've read multiple places that the...

  22. Ysu/ St Elizabeth CRNA 2018

    jmelinte replied to Thevigilante's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The only details I've been able to find are from other threads, dating back as far as the early 2000s. It sounds like the hospital in Youngstown is pretty busy, so SRNAs end up with a ton of...

  23. LaRoche CRNA program

    jmelinte replied to Oldie79's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It was pretty rough. This was my first interview. The technical component was very intense, and I'm afraid I got off on the wrong track with quite a few of the questions. In retrospect, I should have...

    jmelinte replied to Oldie79's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    That's all I've seen as well. I applied for Fall, 2018, and will be interviewing on the 25th. From what I was told, the interview consists of a program overview, and two one-on-one sessions with the...
