1. ICU experience for CRNA school

   kaleks replied to Micu 2020's topic in SRNA

   I'd say apply now and see how it goes! If it doesn't go well, maybe switch to SICU instead of CCU.

2. UPenn application 2021

   kaleks replied to Aygee2021's topic in SRNA

   Thanks! It's going good so far, almost done with the first semester. I have to admit, it was a hard decision for me but I had already left my workplace when Penn notified me. Anyway, just be knowledgeable of the medications and procedures that you of...

3. UPenn application 2021

   kaleks replied to Aygee2021's topic in SRNA

   Hey, yeah I was wait listed and they didn't get in touch with me until July.. I think? Unfortunately, I had to decline it because I was accepted to another program that was way cheaper and started sooner.

4. UPenn application 2021

   kaleks replied to Aygee2021's topic in SRNA

   I also applied last year. I agree with what TPN had to say about the interview! I don't know how it will be this year, but last year, we waited for a long time for decisions to come out. Interviews were held around March and we didn't get the decisio...

5. CRNA school admission ?

7. Has anyone gotten into school WITHOUT the GRE?

   kaleks replied to nitroaveragenurse's topic in SRNA

   You can. If you applied to schools that don't require GRE then there shouldn't be any reason why they wouldn't consider you. That was actually me a year ago. I was taking forever to study for my GRE and I was getting anxious so I decided to apply to ...

   I got my acceptance letter today but I'm already committed to another school starting this fall. I'm still sorta considering this though.. check your applications!

9. UTK CRNA 2020

   kaleks replied to SICUMURSE1's topic in School Programs

   I doubt that they'll give everyone a spot in the waiting list and if they do, that'll just make it hard for them. Also, we don't get to hear until June 3rd for the DNP approval and maybe some people will lose interest if that doesn't happen (?) Anywa...

    kaleks replied to SICUMURSE1's topic in School Programs

    I would give it at least until tomorrow. Maybe they’re still trying to figure out who will be on the waitlist before sending out official letters or something. Have you tried calling?

    kaleks replied to SICUMURSE1's topic in School Programs

    Thank you! Y’all should be hearing back soon too and make sure to update everyone! They’re calling us one by one so it might take some time edit: I interviewed back on the 24th
