    It takes up to 4 weeks to hear if you are going to get an interview or not. You first have to meet the requirements of getting into Case to pursue grad study there, and then your application is off to...

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

    That is true and I feel a bit worried about getting enough aid to survive the entire program. The money at CCF is not appealing enough to put up with the BS and torture they put the students thru for...

    I have been having the same issue. Looks like loans is what I will be needing to find. Wells Fargo still does private loans but the interest rate is really high. I have been told the school does a...

    I met with **** and ****** when I shadowed at CCF. ****was at the interview but **** was not. There were 6 or 7 there from Case and they put you at ease pretty quickly. I was able to joke with them...

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

    I dont think that any of the nurses I work with think that the residents are used as a crutch. We are taught to use critical thinking skills and we work together with the residents and interns. I...

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

    First of all it sound as if you don't like Case very much so I am wondering why you would even apply there if you feel they are so awful? Second, your facts are a bit off. I know numerous students...

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

    Lyela, Hey!! So since I can't PM you I will just answer you here. The deal with CCF clinicals is that you will get $1000 a month plus health insurance and PTO time. After you are done with school,...

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

    Did you get in elsewhere? All CRNA programs require some kind of stats within a specific amount of time, and they all have theory. Yuck! When do you have to send in your letter of accepting their...

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

    I have many friends that did the CCF clinicals and it isn't true about the pay. You owe them 30 months of service after school and will get paid the starting salary not a reduced rate. The school...
