I don’t think it’s going to happen ?

I'll check it out! Thank you @crl12

@NerdHerd Hey! It's hard to say. Last year's class, one guy got off the waitlist 2 weeks before classes started and had to move across the country. Having said that, we also had to put the deposit in by Jan 3 to secure spots. Top waitlisted people were updated after. I'm not sure their timeline for placing deposits but probably two weeks later. So hopefully this kind of helps. Fingers crossed for you!

Hey guys, a great podcast suggested to me by one of the current students is From the Head of The Bed. I love it. I have been listening to it. (I'm really nervous about falling behind as my undergrad and previous masters, I excelled at procrastinating. And, this seems like a bad idea for CRNA school. So, for me, preparing well in advance helps me digest the material better.)

Hi @crl12 Tip! Portland has high housing prices but if you don’t require much (laundry, pets etc) you may be able to find something really close to campus for an affordable rate. Otherwise, it’s cheaper a little further north up in Yarmouth or in South Portland or Cape Elizabeth. FYI: I lived in the Tamarlane Apartments in Portland. The management team was okay but the building was not. I could hear EVERYTHING and I could feel the cold seep through the walls when it was really cold. Yikes. Winter Suggestion: Start looking at Dick’s Sporting Goods or even Kohl’s for deals on winter coats, gloves, hat, boots etc. You will need them for next winter. Maine gets ALOT of snow and sometimes negative degree weather.

Hello All! my name is Aimee and I’m from WI but travel nursed on up to New England from 2018 to present. I am excited to start the CRNA program at UNE. Only 40 more shifts! Here’s some info I learned through calling/emailing UNE And from the grapevine (I have a few friends in the program). Fafsa 2020-2021 school year needs to be filled out. Financial Aid awards are in April. Per AJ Wallner: Orientation starts May 26-27 and classes start immediately following. So turns out our “8 months” of 39 grad diadactic is really only 7. People in the program suggested getting an IPad and pencil and downloading the app Notably. With it you can convert powerpoints to pdfs and then take notes on them as there’s just such a volume of material to wade through printing will be ridiculous. Most books are passed on through digital books. I may rent my own though as I work better that way. Clinicals: you choose your top 3 places for primary site but ancillary sites you have no say. The D.C./Maryland sites are your choice only...they won’t just place you there. One of the current students said we should be receiving an email soon regarding what to/not to do/buy.

@carla4392 perfect! I just searched and couldn't find it but will try again later. Thanks!

Hello, hello! I have applied for this year but have not heard anything yet. Online, my application status is still "submitted". Hopefully you hear soon!

Hi guys!!! Should we start a group with who all got in so we can connect beforehand? Another kid from WI (my current hospital) also got in!!! So awesomely strange.
