   VCU CRNA 2023

   Asherah replied to Tee Ghee's topic in SRNA

   Yep, NOVA-based NA2 here and I worked full time through July of first year and allowed myself to have a few weeks off to relax before Fall term started. This is very doable and the administration encourages it! It really does help develop time manag...

   VCU CRNA 2023

   Asherah replied to Tee Ghee's topic in SRNA

   Hey all, current VCU NA2 here wanted to chime in and let you know that I know it’s so tough to play the waiting game. Additionally, we have our cadaveric regional anesthesia anatomy camp coming up this week starting on Sunday so several faculty memb...

   Based on current experience, is it worth reapplying?

   Asherah replied to JMo's topic in SRNA

   Yeah, so I’m not going to rebut this statistic, it is very evident. But, I think it should never be a deterrent for someone to try to progress through this goal if they want it. Do I feel that older SRNAs are less able to handle the rigors of schoo...

   VCU DNAP CRNA 2022

   Asherah replied to Crna2022's topic in SRNA

   Just anecdotally, last year we received our offers of admission to accept/decline via email on 6/3, which included a link to other items you may need to do to satisfy documentation for the graduate school (official transcripts, GRE scores etc.) Then...

   VCU CRNA DNAP 2021

   Asherah replied to Asherah's topic in SRNA

   Regarding your questions above about GPA, GRE and critical care setting, I recommend the following, and would do so for any CRNA program, actually. Your GPA is on the lower end of acceptable, but you can augment with a competitive GRE score (> 31...

   VCU DNAP CRNA 2022

   Asherah replied to Crna2022's topic in SRNA

   Since we interviewed during the first surge of COVID, our interview model and medium may be different than what they are offering to you all this year. What I can say is the same advice I offer to all CRNA applicants as they ready themselves for in...

   Hey all, I'm a current first year etpDNAP student and am excited for all of you guys. I know that that the app process can be very stressful, but you've done your best and now it's time to relax a bit, try to distract yourselves and enjoy life while...

   Duke CRNA 2021

   Asherah replied to TL1025's topic in SRNA

   I feel like this person either: A) Stayed logged in at work and someone posted this ridiculous testimonial on their behalf on a legit account, or B) Resident trolling for reactions. Hard to tell ??

    VCU CRNA DNAP 2021

    Asherah replied to Asherah's topic in SRNA

    I'm sure you'll have more candidates who will join you in applying and join your discussion for this years application cycle, VCU just had an odd application timeline that seems to be months apart from most schools. In terms of advice, simply: you n...

    Declining a school after accepting the offer

    Asherah replied to catty_cat_cat's topic in SRNA

    Yes, I was in the position and actually withdrew from a program in the middle of my first week after finding out I was accepted to my first choice program that was scheduled to start months later (was shocked, honestly.) It was hard to word, but I wa...

    Thoughts on CRNA school rankings: UPenn vs VCU

    Asherah replied to VictoriaKristin's topic in SRNA

    I feel like @loveanesthesia and @BigPappaCRNA should chime in here. I would say, absolutely not. Neither would matter to me. Those two categories don't guarantee that they produce a well-prepared CRNA.
