It seems like your more focused on the money aspect. Taking the easy way is usually not the best way to go, especially in the long run. As long as your GPA is above 3.0 you have a good chance. Most programs look at the whole package, not just GPA. Do...

The interview is not to bad. The PD will talk about the program and then half the group will interview and the other half will tour the facility. They will ask you general questions and also give you 2 senerios. All I did is go over the CCRN materia...

I start Jan 2013. I will have taken all of the available courses before I start

I am starting Drexel this Jan. I am takeing all 7 classes before I start. Taking 2 at a time is doable but will be a lot of work. I strongly recommed taking as many as you can.

I startt Drexel's CRNA program this January. I also submitted my app in July and beleive I received a telephone call in October notifing me that I had an interview and would receive an email with dates to choose from. I ended up interviewing in May ...

I have just applied to USC, CRNA program and is wondering if anyone has any information on the program. I have a 910 on my GRE, gpa 3.5, 6yrs PICU experience and have been in the Adult ICU float pool for the last 5 months and am planning on taking my...

It is not all about stats, work in a high acuity ICU, take grad level courses. Most important do research on the programs you want to attend and make sure your schools will teach you lines, epidurals and blocks (some unfortonalty dont) and pay attent...

I will start their program in Jan. 2013. I had a friend that took the accelerated BSN and he had no problem with Financial aid and said they were very good at getting you enough aid (I guess it depends on who you ask). I was very impressed with their...

To be honest your science GPA is going to hurt you, most school look at those grades. Make sure you get A's from know on to boost up your GPA as high as possible and retake the sciences you did poor on and make you get an A in them. Once you get your...

I dont know much about those programs, but I do know that UPenn is around 120,000 for the program wich is twice most programs.

One of the points that i was trying to make was that if you dont like being a nurse (either floor, ICU, ect..) your not goint to like being a CRNA. As a CRNA you are still a nurse, and if you patient is crashing your ICU experience will come in handy...

PACU doese on count and will not help you at all. If you dont like being an ICU nurse then you might want to rethink going to CRNA school.

get good ICU experience 2 yrs +

Does your CNA stand for Certified Nurse Assistant? If it does I would leave that one out.

Before you even think about applying you should at least have 3 years mim as an ICU nurse. New Grad nurses know nothing, so before you get excited make sure you like being a nurse first. I dont think any nurse is ready after only one year of experien...

It is very important to have a competitive GPA (around 3.5) since about 90% of the applicants will. This will put you behind the 8 ball imediatly. Retake any science courses you did poorly on and also take some graduate level courses and make sure yo...

GPA 3.65 GRE 910 Pediatric and Adult CCRN 8 years ICU experience

You need to just worry about nursing school. You have to make sure you get a high GPA and also at least 2 years of ICU experience before you will even be considered.

Congratz to everyone that was accepted into Drexel's CRNA program. I was also accepted . Look forward to meeting you in a little over a year.

That nurse does not know what she is taling about. Depending on the work setting CRNA's are starting around 120,000 - 130,000 and most places cover malpractice.

I interviewed at a CRNA program and about two weeks later called and was told congrats your in. Called Two weeks later to see when I was going to receive my packet and was told I would receive it via email later that week. I did receive and email wit...

I was accepted into Drexel's CRNA program starting 2013 . I plan on talking all of the core course. The one I am worried about is Biostats since I have not taken any stats courses in quite some time. All core courses are online. Would it be better to...

My advice is to work as an RN first in an ICU and see if you like it. You can apply with 1 year experience but you will have to be exceptional.

BS - 2.67 ADN - 3.59 BSN - 3.4 GRE - 910 ICU Experience - 8 yrears Pediatric and adult CCRN And my good looks :-) As you can see it is not all about the numbers, if you do well at the interview you have a very good chance of acceptance.
