:uhoh3::uhoh3:. I have a question if you wouldnt mind answering it for me. I just turned 27 years old and I would be starting from scratch. I stopped going to college because I had no clue what I wanted to do with my life and now I found something that I would love to do and I would be going into this with only 12 credit hours. Do you think I am too old to pursue this? How long would it take from start to finish? If you would feel comfortable my number is

I heard its almostimpossible to get into crna school. Is that true?

:idea::idea::idea:OK I need help. I am 28 years old. I have finally decided what I want to be which is a crna. The problem I am having is I think I may be too old to pursue this now? I am currently a financial planner and I hate it.. I shadowed a crna at BJC in Saint Louis MO and I loved it!! I am starting from scratch so I do not have any college credits or anything because I did not need it for my current position just licesnes. I want to do this more than anything but dont want to be 40 years old and just having a family or career. Any ideas what I should do? Am I too old to start from scratch? Please feel free to message me or replay on here. I appreciate all the help. Thanks, Bob

What are the pre reqs for slu's accelerated program? how long is it?

Your right I dont what I was thinking.. I guess its because I saw all of my friends graduating college buying houses etc... An Im just getting ready to begin my journey... PLus i was hoping to have a gamily before then ya know? But it will all work out.

Im going to go for it.. I have made up my mind and gonna do it... I will be done with my bsn right around 30 so thats not bad then Im gonna fo for my crna.. I really appreciate everyone telling me how they did it... It helps knowing Im not the only person going through this. Thanks

thats about when i will be done... how was it?

see my problem im starting from scratch

Well its actually not too hard.. I am a financial advisor right now so I know what I am talking about. all you have to do is plan properly

Well I dont pan on working until im 65. So that is a problem Im going to retire when Im 50 so that is why time is an issue.

Thank you very much.... I will call them in the morning.

see so ur getting your associates rn? they dont have that hear so how many years are u looking aT?

awesome... so how are you approaching it? 4 year program? pre reqs to bsn?

So are you already a Rn?

Thank you, I dont have any classes to transfer so I have to start from scratch... What man plan is.... and tell me what you think. Take these next two year to focus on pre reqs and then try to get into an accelerated program at umsl or somewhere for their BSN? Then once I tackle that I have to work for 1 year and get a couple pre reqs for crna school then start applying.... Think what I wanna do is achievable? Do you work in the saint louis area?

so if i take pre req at a community college i can get into a accelerated bsn prgram?

I am so glad someone feels the exact same way I do ... Its a hard decision isnt it... I have decided to go for it I just have stop doubting myself... Im afraid of not being able to make the grades.. ya know? I completely agree about the salary thats why i stopped going in the first place.... because it wasnt going to be worth financially and becoming a crna will pay off financially and I will love my job.... So yeah

congratulations!!!!!!

that wouldnt be a bad idea at all..... are you in crna school?

i have decided to pursue my dream of being a crna finally.. so now where do i start? can i do pre reqs and get into a bsn program? if so where? or do i have to just go to a 4 year bsn program? im so confuses by all of this........ i dont have any vredits as of right now....any suggestions? im trying to complete my bsn asap im hoping on some sort of accelerated program? any advice thanks :bow::bow:

I have made up mind an dI am definately going for it..... I appreciate all the advice and support this website is awesome I would of talked myself out of it if it wasnt for this site.... Now my question is whats the best road to take? I have no college credit can I take pre req then get into a bsn program without being a nurse? then best route to become crna? Thanks

Did you already have a degree before getting accepted to barnes?

what kind of job were you working? see i am having trouble finding a job that will work around the schedule.

Your right I am going to go for it.. I have just been getting alot of grief from friend and all that ya know... being a guy its hard to go into nursing especially since im working in construction now... but i wanna do something that can cactually make a difference in someones life ya know..... so yeah .... ARE YOU GOING THROUGH TO BECOME CRNA?
