Well, I decided on Chino Hills. It is far from Pasadena, but it was the best option overall for my family. Is there anyone in this year's Kaiser program living in, near, or around Chino Hills area? If so, we may a carpool opportunity.

So now I'm looking at Pasadena or surrounding areas... Does anyone know which areas are good for families with kids. We need to find a relatively affordable community with good elementary schools--if possible.

I'm planning on working 3 shifts per month. By the way-is anyone planning to work during school? If so, how much? Look forward to seeing everyone in the Fall. Jose

Hello everyone who will be attending Kaiser in Pasadena, CA in August...and congratulations to all. As we get ready to start, I thought it might be helpful to share information about the program and to solicit advice from those who are currently in. Hopefully this will help us to know what to expect and maybe make life a little less stressful. :) I am looking forward to getting started! I'll throw out the first question. I am relocating from out of state (St. Louis) and looking at moving to Huntington Beach. Does anyone know how long the commute is to Pasadena? Hope everyone is enjoying their summer, Brandon

I have an interview coming up at Kaiser Permanente in California. Anyone know about the interview process there?

Does anyone know what to expect from U of Pittsburgh's interview process?

I just scheduled an interview at Raleigh in North Carolina in 3 weeks. Anyone familiar with the interview process at Raleigh and what I should prepare for? Exciting times! Good luck all.

Thanks for the encouragement. I have recently applied to 5 schools and have an interview at UNC Raleigh in 3 weeks. I am anxious, but enthusiastic about the opportunity.

I live in St. Louis and have been shadowing CRNA's at Barnes-Jewish over the past year. I confirmed with the chief CRNA there and the director of the program that they are starting up their program Fall of 2004. They are planning for a class of 6 students and will be catering to their current ICU staff to fill the slots.
