great post/info. Thanks so much.

I was accepted at Rosalind and DePaul Northshore, both in Illinois. I don't know which one to attend. I have tried to list the pros and cons to both, but they are about equal. DePaul's program is more established, has been around since 1956. Their clinical sites are closer. The program is 36 months and I have to travel to another site to take my nonanesthesia courses/master courses. Depaul's program begins this Sept. I can work full-time up until and save more money. During the first year I can also work full-time or part-time. DePaul's progam is integrated which I like. Rosalind's program starts this March(less time to save)!!! Yes, like in about 6weeks. I have saved a small nest egg and I'm prepared to sacrifice financially while in the program. Rosalind is a newer program, been around for about 5 years. Some clinical sites are in Wisconsin, at least a 2hr drive from me. The program is front-loaded. The program is 27 months. I take 14 credit hrs. the first semester-probably can't work regularly. I had a better interview process at Rosalind and I really bonded with the the staff. I know friends that have attended both programs and they love both. Please HELP!!!!

I've been out of school for about 10 years. I am not up to date with the latest electronics or gadgets for adult learners. I was acceptted at Rosalind Franklin CRNA program!! What gadgets, programs, books, or etc. has anyone used that are helpful in school? I need help with things that you consider "must haves" for SRNA's.
