I am enjoying it as much as I can so far. It's pretty much what you would expect being in a rigorous grad program. So far it's been manageable. We start anesthesia didactic this Summer, which is when *** supposedly hits the fan. I do really enjoy my cohort though, everyone gets along really well which has been helpful and awesome to have study groups. Hey sorry I am just seeing these! How did the interview go?! Hey sorry I am just seeing this!

It's hard to say. My lowest grade was a B+ when I applied. But I'm not certain what the grades were of my classmates. It is a competitive program given the low number of seats for acceptance. So if the Cs are in any science or nursing courses I would suggest retaking at least one to should you are making the effort

I received an offer letter Thursday!

Just interviewed today. Hoping to hear back soon! Anyone else on here interview as well?

I had received an email last week with an interview date.

You could try reaching out to the program director or secretary to get more info

Thank you!! I got an email

I got invited for an interview 12/5!

Have you heard anything yet?

No but I hope soon!!

hey guys! I applied for this year's application cycle. Waiting to hear back on an interview. I am wondering if any of you can share your experience from last year's interview and what it was like. Greatly appreciated!!

Thankfully I have another school I applied to and am awaiting an interview for. These are helpful tips. I definitely could have showcased more personal aspects when they said tell us about yourself/ work experience. I'm optimistic to use some of the take aways from this interview and hopefully rock this next one

I appreciate your insight! I guess my next question would be. Aside from adding additional leadership experience to my resume how would I highlight this in the interview if it didn't get brought up? Of the questions they asked me there wasn't a chance to try and even fit that in

No email but I received a rejection letter via my portal. Honestly super bummer. I didn't feel like I crushed my interview but also didn't think I bombed it. It also was so short I felt like I didn't have the chance to highlight/ showcase myself much. It is was it is. There is next year. Not too sure where to improve on tho I guess other than practicing even more for my interview. I have been a PICU nurse for 5 years working at all level 1 trauma centers. If I had less experience I feel like my chances of getting in next year would improve in perspective to more work experience. However.. feeling like I did all I could to prepare this application cycle. There's always room for improvement I suppose. Just need to figure out where in particular

I hear ya. But based on this forum I don't think anyone has received acceptances besides those who were accepted early. So I'm thinking there is still room for acceptances (hopefully!!)

Anybody out there? LOL

Anyone that interviewed this Thursday 10/19 hear back?

RIC/ SJHSN DNP Program with Specialization in Nurse Anesthesia. Hey everyone. I applied to the program starting in May 2024. I submitted a couple weeks ago and am waiting to hear on next steps. I wanted to start this thread for anyone else that has applied as well. Does anyone know how large this cohort will be? From what I could find online, in the past it has only been 10 students.

Congrats to everyone that has been accepted!! This is my first application cycle so I am still figuring out how all of this works. I didn't realize they sent out acceptance letters before some people even interview. I was initially going to interview in early October, however I had to move my date due to a family emergency. Now I'm feeling like I'm at somewhat of a disadvantage interviewing later if some spots are already taken. In general is better to interview as early as possible?
