  1. Rush or Mayo

    indecisiveRN replied to indecisiveRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I had my Rush interview yesterday. The Mayo online application won't be done with revisions until August 15 and the deadline isn't until October 15. I think interviews are in November. Good luck...

  2. Becoming an NP with little to no nursing experience??

    indecisiveRN replied to Blurr156's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    One of the 'stickies' at the top of the page is called something like "Becoming an NP with little to no experience." That is a lengthy discussion on this topic. Take a

  3. Do All Crna Programs Require You To Be Licensed In That State?

    indecisiveRN replied to TheIncredible's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I think for the most part that you don't have to have a license in the state where the school is until you start school. So for example, I live in IL and am applying to school in MN and OH. I only...

  4. Letters of Recommendation for CRNA Applications

    indecisiveRN replied to ljmb's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    If your references want to attach a letter to the form that is probably okay, but if the school wants the form filled out I wouldn't skip it in place of a letter (no matter how great it may be). It...

  5. Fall 2009 - Where is everyone applying?

    indecisiveRN replied to lovegasRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Just an update- I got an invitation to interview at Rush today! I don't know if I'm more excited or

  6. How did you choose your school?

    indecisiveRN replied to Noobposter's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'm still in the process of applying, but I can tell you why I applied where I did. One of the schools I'm applying to is close enough to where I live that I could commute. We already live here, so...

  7. Case Western

    indecisiveRN replied to indecisiveRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It is 28

  8. anyone have a list of CRNA schools?

    indecisiveRN replied to JettaDP's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    If you go to http://www.aana.com and click on "Becoming a CRNA" in the left column, the bottom option is "Accredited Programs." You can search by state or see all of them. There are only 105 (maybe...

  9. Case Western

    indecisiveRN replied to indecisiveRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    What are the drawbacks? I have heard there is some variability among clinical sites. Maybe the April timeline was the latest you could be accepted; I didn't realize they did rolling interviews. If...

  10. How about this: NP vs. MSN ?

    indecisiveRN replied to Joe NightingMale's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    When you say MSN, do you mean Clinical Leader? NP's have MSNs, too, except those who were grandfathered

  11. Fall 2009 - Where is everyone applying?

    indecisiveRN replied to lovegasRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    lovegas, The winters aren't so bad. And besides, it doesn't sound like we'll be outside all that much anyway! Did your friend not like Mayo or Rochester? Why

  12. Fall 2009 - Where is everyone applying?

    indecisiveRN replied to lovegasRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I have applied to Rush and will apply to Mayo as soon as the application is finished being updated (mid-August). The waiting is already killing

  13. Cardiology NP?

    indecisiveRN replied to JEKA's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Loyola University in Chicago has a three class, online cardiology certification for NPs. http://www.luc.edu/nursing/graduate_cardio.shtml The info about the certificate is all the way at the

  14. CRNA Duties?

    indecisiveRN replied to LinLin4107's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Not sure where you read that, but it sounds like that is about CNMs (midwives), not CRNAs. CRNAs place epidurals for laboring women and are present when a c-section occurs, but that is pretty much...

  15. Chicago Graduate Programs - Any reviews/opinions?

    indecisiveRN replied to Amxixi29's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I'm currently in the FNP program at NIU (in DeKalb), but looking into ACNP at the three you mentioned. All three are very highly ranked NP programs. Personally, I'm not applying to Rush because the...

  16. Online Graduate Statistics Class

    indecisiveRN replied to MileHigh RN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Rush University in Chicago has one. I think it is Biostatistics 501 or something like that. You can take it as a student-at-large without being accepted into a program. I haven't taken it myself so...

  17. Online advanced Patho or Pharmacology courses?

    indecisiveRN replied to pacifica's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I'm currently at Northern Illinois University, and they offer both classes online. I think pharm is going to be online in the fall, and then patho-phys will be in the spring (they alternate online...

  18. I am a CRNP and the pay has is too low, can I afford to become a CRNA

    indecisiveRN replied to kskites's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Just to clarify... What Rush offers is a post-certificate master's, not a post-master's certificate. It is for CRNAs who are certified but don't have a master's, not APNs who want a certificate. I...
