CRNAtobe12

I received an acceptance call for the Abingdon Campus as well. Congrats to those accepted and good luck to those still waiting to hear!

Yes. I took it as a non-degree seeking major.

I completed an internship in my CVICU one year prior to graduation. This resulted in a much shorter orientation period. My last semester of nursing school, I enrolled in Advanced Pharmacology (Graduate level). This previous spring I took general chemistry 1. I'm on an EBP committee on my unit and have charge/precepting experience. They look at the whole package and experience is just one piece. Good luck!

I graduated last May with my BSN and have been accepted to a CRNA program. It is doable but you have to be diligent. I took several courses while working full time as an ICU nurse. I applied to 2 programs with 8 months of experience and received interviews at both. I'm still waiting to hear from the other school I interviewed at. Several of my friends who applied with only one year of experience didn't receive interviews because they lacked additional classes/certs.

Sorry, I just now noticed this comment. Feel free to PM me with any questions you may have. The interview process was very laid back.

No problem! Lets hope so. Hopefully within the week we'll hear something.

I interviewed for abingdon as well and haven't heard anything. I know of 5-6 others that interviewed for abingdon too and they havent heard either. I dont think they've made calls yet.

They called around 4:30.

Just got my acceptance call! Best of luck everyone!

I feel ya. I'm about 2 hours from Knoxville. How did you feel about the interview?

Anyone heard anything?

I believe they're still interviewing applicants

My interview is May 3rd. Were the questions more personality based? Any tips? I'm sure you did fine! Did they say when they would be contacting you?

Jamiemoney88, how did the interview go?

I was exempt from the GRE as well. I have right at 1 year of CVICU experience at a level 1 trauma center. 3.9 gpa, 80+ hours of shadowing experience. I took advanced pharmacology and I'm finishing up general chemistry now. I'm also on an EBP committee within my unit and have charge/precepting experience.
