  1. Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) CRNA 2023

    Fixing_broken_hearts replied to Tee Ghee's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think every little thing matters. They also don’t require CCRN but I bet everybody has it. Those who got interviews, could you give us any advice or tips that you think helped you get...

    I am not trying to be negative. I am sorry if I offended you or stressed you out. But I literally think they don’t really care because they haven’t taken their time to keep us updated in any shape...

    Fixing_broken_hearts replied to Tee Ghee's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Honestly, no news is bad news at this point, IMO. They said July 1 is the date when everyone will know if they got admission. They still have to interview those whom they invited. If you haven’t...

    You are right. I myself was planning to apply for cohort that starts in 2024. But literally applied last minute because they removed GRE

    Has anybody not accepted the interview on this forum? Have they reached you with date and time yet? It’s tough…not knowing. I am so humbled with this whole

    Fixing_broken_hearts replied to Tee Ghee's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I agree. I still can’t believe it that I didn’t get an interview. I thought my stats were OK (GPA 3.89 with 4.0 science, CCRN, cardiac ICU experience, preceptor and charge nurse on the unit etc.)....

    It seems they only reply back to those whom they have selected for interview. My friend got interview and they reply to all her emails, but I get no replies

    Congrats to all who got interviews! Those who got interviews, do you mind sharing your stats? I am pretty much over it and now thinking about what I can do better to apply next

    I know most work in ICU who apply. Is there anybody who has ICU experience but now works somewhere else and stays PRN in ICU? I fear this might go against

    Fixing_broken_hearts replied to Tee Ghee's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I don’t know if it is going to be the same as my friend did in the midst of pandemic. But they gave two attempts to record the answers and then it was sent

    Fixing_broken_hearts replied to Tee Ghee's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    No, not really much research experience. However, they were super stars on the unit with councils and implementing and changing protocols, using evidence-based practice. Just really good nurses who...
