  1. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    When I had my interview, the director said like almost everyone on the part time list moved up to the full time position that started in January. Obviously, a good chunk of people in this groups have...

  2. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    From what I have experienced with the application process in general, programs first call everyone to offer them a spot and then the next day or two after that, rejection and waitlist letters are sent...

  3. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think depending on the program, how long you have been out of school and your years of experience can be a negative if it's greater than 5 years. Some schools want that sweet spot of 3-5 so not too...

  4. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think what might be hurting you is how long it's been since you have been out of school. Your GPA is good but if it's been a decade since you took a class, it may make some schools hesitant to give...

  5. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    When I interviewed a few weeks ago they said it's holistic. They have your app score so now your interview gets calculated into that and they decide from there. He said they take in account everything...

  6. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Getting an interview is them saying they like you on paper for their program. If they feel that after an interview that you are in the mold of what they want for their students and have the points to...

  8. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  9. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  12. Florida International University (FIU) CRNA - Spring 2026

    Hannaheas replied to CurlyInScrubs's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    So the 5.5 hours includes a tour of the building, breaks between the interviews and time to ask current students questions from what I gathered from the past students and an info session. From what...

  13. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think with the application being rolling and having just closed, they still have a lot of people to go over. I saw last year's thread that some people didn't get offers until like July! They have a...

  14. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  15. Florida International University (FIU) CRNA - Spring 2026

    Hannaheas replied to CurlyInScrubs's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I've been rereading my CCRN books, reviewing commonly used meds and devices I use on my unit, and practicing emotional intelligence questions. I have never done a group interview so this will be...

  16. Florida International University (FIU) CRNA - Spring 2026

    Hannaheas replied to CurlyInScrubs's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    On the interview invite it states that they won't send out your exact interview time until they have finalized every group time slot. They must be still finalizing everyone who said yes or no to the...

  17. University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) CRNA - 2026

    Hannaheas replied to propofol-princess's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The 15th is the hard deadline so everything must be submitted by then. My final draft was a little over two pages so it is possible to answer all the questions succinctly. I went through a couple of...

  18. Florida International University (FIU) CRNA - Spring 2026

    Hannaheas replied to CurlyInScrubs's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

  22. Florida International University (FIU) CRNA - Spring 2026

    Hannaheas replied to CurlyInScrubs's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    At the information session, they said probably the earliest we would hear back is like mid march. They moved up the application closure date this year since they got so many applicants last year...

    Hannaheas replied to CurlyInScrubs's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist
