Congrats @socalRN91! Has anyone made a fb group? I'd love to connect.

I haven't heard back, neither has the other person I know that accepted a spot.

They told us that they were choosing 4-5 alternates and 4-5 would most likely get accepted because people choose different programs. A lot of people in my group were interviewing other places.

Me too! I am so excited!

I feel like everyone wishes they would have done or said something differently after running the scenario in their head. I thought my panel interview went well. It was really nice that they offered feedback. I am wondering how the other parts of the ...

Good luck @Hearts_ICURNBSN! How exciting! Mine is on Friday. I'm curious to know some of the changes they are making (i.e. class size, number of interviews). Let us know how it goes if you get the chance! Good luck again :)

Thanks Hearts_ICURNBSN! Is everyone's interview Thursday or Friday?

I haven't received confirmation yet, but I bet they have a lot of transcripts to go through. Did you do delivery confirmation with the mail carrier?

Yeah, it just opened yesterday with the correct option. After selecting Cal State Fullerton it is the "Doctor of Nursing Practice – Nurse Anesthesia", which is on the second page.

@socalRN91 I wonder if the mock code is part of the group interview? And Good luck to everyone!

I think I remember 70-80 interviews for 35-40 spots.

For interviews? The post-application message/email said mid-December. I looked on last year's thread and they found out around the 20th.

@hiramd Thank you for sharing that! I know they put a lot of emphasis on selecting who is the best "fit" for the program, and the interview is probably the best place to determine that. Did your friend say what he did to prepare? Good luck to you a...

@CPR_GUY Those are great stats. Everyone has amazing stats! I am sure it is really difficult for the committee to decide who to select for interviews/acceptances. I was wondering how the DNP/price increase would affect the application pool, but it l...

There is another thread someone started on the SRNA board that has replies. I've posted there, and I think we'd all love your input and support as well! I've pasted it below: https://allnurses.com/student-registered-nurse/kaiser-anesthesia-kpsan-113...

I see! Well it sounds like you really improved your application with those things! Was that recommended to you by the director during the counseling session?

@Fentanyl_CA, BSN, RN, I noticed this is your second time applying. What did you do to make yourself more competitive this time around? This will be my first time.

I applied despite recent changes, but I know of people reconsidering for reasons specific to them. With that being said, being a student the first year of a new program in any school/field of study is going to have some bumps in the road.
