  3. MTSA 2021

    TPN1986 replied to SICURN21's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    This is incorrect. I'm not local at all and I was offered an interview, I applied before being accepted to another program and will be declining my interview. Good luck to all

  4. Help!! CRNA Program admission

    TPN1986 replied to NurseL20's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I was accepted to a program in state but I ended up going out of state anyways. The program closest to home while would have been the most convenient wouldn't have been a good fit for me and...

  5. Help!! CRNA Program admission

    TPN1986 replied to NurseL20's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yes. Everything you're describing had happened to me. I got straight A's in my ADN, 3.7 in my BSN, did CCRN-CMC CEN and got accepted on my 2nd year applying with two years ICU experience to multiple...

  6. Waiving ICU requirement

    TPN1986 replied to lellomere's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The irony of your post is that it's not the school's requirement that you have ICU experience. It's the COA, the accrediting body that requires schools to accept applicants from a critical care/ICU...

  9. Becoming a SRNA with a DUI

    TPN1986 replied to CVRU Nurse's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I've definitely seen people on here post and comment that they've had a DUI in regards to applying to CRNA school. I wouldnt let a DUI stop you from applying if you think you've got a good enough...

  13. Union University CRNA 2020

    TPN1986 replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Ditto, I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I'd really like to see the current faculty stay. Obviously I'm completely clueless about the circumstances. Perhaps the faculty has even already made their...

  14. Union University CRNA 2020

    TPN1986 replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It's really heartbreaking, I wish their was some way the relationship between the faculty and the school could be

  15. Union University CRNA 2020

    TPN1986 replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Of course, this entire situation is extremely disheartening. I'm looking forward to the day when this is just a footnote in my path to becoming a successful

  16. Union University CRNA 2020

    TPN1986 replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Unfortunately I'm one of those who was accepted to another program, but turned down the seat out of an abundance of respect for others since I had already committed to Union. Now I'm just hoping...

  17. Union University CRNA 2020

    TPN1986 replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Do you think this would apply to the incoming students though? Hopefully they are able to find faculty, but as you said all we can do is monitor the situation as it

  18. Union University CRNA 2020

    TPN1986 replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Well, at least they have till august to recruit and hire new staff. It's disheartening to hear this at this juncture but I already put down my deposit and declined the other school I was accepted...

  19. ABSN vs TBSN matter to CRNA schools?

    TPN1986 replied to VEducated's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Things programs will look at: 1. Grades (specifically hard sciences chemistry, biochemistry, A&P) 2. years of ICU experience and quality of patients seen in your ICU 3. Academia you have worked on...

  20. Transferring ICUs for better experience?

    TPN1986 replied to mph53953's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Normally I wouldn't jump to telling someone to quitting their job and seeking new experiences, but honestly everything you outline in your post is exactly why you need another job. If I were you I...

  23. Realistic Goal?

    TPN1986 replied to mursedreaming's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    They may be right but my personal experience has been that a high emphasis was placed on undergraduate sciences such as A&P, chemistry, micro, etc. Fortunately, I had A's in all of those classes...

  24. Realistic Goal?

    TPN1986 replied to mursedreaming's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    If you're serious consider retaking some of your undergraduate sciences that are pulling your GPA down. Maybe even consider taking a biochemistry course at some point. It's definitely an achievable...

    TPN1986 replied to ICUNurse32's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Responding from my mobile phone so apologies for any spelling error. Im currently considering HSPS versus STRAP, my major concern with the hsps is you’re required to do 45 days of training each year...
