  1. Best to talk to the specific program director and find out what they value. I have applied to three programs and all of them emphasize different things, some even require or highly encourage you to...

    Georgetown CRNA 2019

    Don't think anyone replied back to that last post from back in March, just FYI. There's a current thread for the 2020 cohort applications that are going to begin interviews in a few

    Ooh, did they send out more interviews today? ?Where ya coming
  4. Yes, they seem to review applications as they are complete and submitted. I received an interview offer two days after
  5. The fact is, that no one can travel two parallel paths simultaneously. You can't begin a nurse anesthesia program with one year experience at the bedside and compare that to three years, five years,...
  6. I've been a bit surprised and unsure why there seems to be a bit of negativity here or sarcasm maybe regarding name recognition or tuition cost. Yes, it's a unique situation regarding being the first...
  7. Absolutely. Is your concern the cost? Not sure what the barrier to sending is
  8. Update from the JHSON webinar from a few weeks ago in case anyone who is applying missed it: they are seeking to admit 10-15 students in the first cohort and they indicating that the interest was...

    The interview notification I received just listed possible dates to choose from and there were no further details regarding the structure of the day. I can't even believe I'm getting the opportunity...
  10. I know you asked for people who had success with a CC float background, and I can't speak to that but if I was a program evaluating a critical care float nurse I would wonder if they were getting many...
  11. Interviewing late October, pleasantly surprised that they don't keep you waiting long after application submission.
  12. If they've asked you to revise it, you should revise it. It doesn't really matter if you like it, they didn't feel like it was quite what they needed from you last year, to be candid. What feedback...
  13. Submitted today, we'll see. I talked to a friend of mine who is a CRNA in DC currently (did not attend GU but another program locally), but she mentioned that all of her anesthesia colleagues who...

    Yep, I am still in Completed
  15. I thought GU's application was very quirky compared to some other programs in the region...I had to laugh when it asked you to quantify how many IV's you've started in the last week/month/year
  16. I understand and agree with your comment, however I was making the point that there have been several DNP programs in place so the formation of a successful curriculum is possible, not merely the...
  17. I'd imagine its acceptable to do such things, perhaps by submitting their curriculum content and proposal for coursework. There's a small blurb about it near the bottom of this page, see link below....

    SURFS was the former UMSON admissions interface...thankfully this upgraded system is much easier to navigate and user friendly. Good luck to everyone who applied, I feel much more relaxed now that the...

    Hey guys, application in progress here as well. Also based here at STC for the past 5 years, critical care nurse for 8 years total. Stats are competitive, but who really knows, right? Good luck to...
  20. I've been working in a CCU (with heavy MICU overflow) since graduation, so approximately 3.5 years and am seeking a more challenging patient demographic and higher acuity environment. We get...

    Nurses pulled as CNAS??

    An an RN or LPN, you are responsible for all of the duties inclusive of the CNA/Aide role, so I'm not sure if you just think that you shouldn't be doing the physical labor that a CNA does? LPNs and...

    The nurse recruiter will talk to you briefly ab out benefits, payrate, medical insurance, parking etc. and then will escort you to the unit you are interviewing on and to the Nurse Manger for the...

    Johns Hopkins new grad 2011

    I work at JHH right now in a unit that is within the department of Surgery but am currently transitioning to JH Bayview to begin in an ICU there. What I can speak to as far as your choice in...
  24. So where are the potential 2008 Columbia ETPers at? I think a handful of regulars around here have Columbia on their list of apps, so heres a thread to get us through until notifications in Spring...

    Johns Hopkins BSN/MSN Fall 2010 Anyone?

    I'm a current JHUSON student, graduating in May and I wanted to let everyone know that a phone interview is perfectly acceptable if you can't make it to Baltimore in person. If offered admission, you...
