my friend just got in.. after the application deadline, without having her ccrn, without the gre. on experience alone, it seems.. or just by the grace of god. she had put off applying for years because she didnt feel ready. my advice is to not wait-- get your stuff together and send in an application. the worst they can do is deny you, but you'll at least have some dialogue about what they're wanting from you. go on.. give it a try.

Haha.. Congrats, Allie! No, I interviewed at UNE St Joe's, and Albany. I can't wait to start!.

BS psychology, 3.0 BSN, 3.2something GRE 1200? CCRN 5 years of ICU, although a pretty tame one. I've been at a 5-bed'er in a little community hospital in VT for 2.5 yrs. Took two grad-level sciences and got A's to prove I could do advanced coursework. I applied to five schools and was invited to interview at them all. I interviewed at three and was accepted to all three. I'm starting at Albany in August. Honestly, what I credit most was being nine months pregnant for the interviews.. it was a little something to help them remember me. I imagine the program directors discussing applicants and someone saying, 'what about the pregnant girl?' i told them i had noted the hospitals along the route in case I went into labor and shrugged and said, 'it's just childbirth. i can do this.'

Yes, still working.. probably until the week before classes start. I of my coworkers also got into the program and we're looking for a place together. How's the city? Are you liking it there?

Hi! I live in Vermont.. I'm looking for a place in or around Albany. What about you?

I'm getting ready to start Albany's CRNA program this August and would love to hear from my classmates-to-be. Anybody out there?

Jacob, you are totally in.

actually, i would love to know why you chose albany over UNE.

i interviewed and it was very laid-back and comfortable. everyone was very friendly and welcoming. i was accepted there and at UNE and am leaning towards albany's program. any thoughts about this? i would also love to hear from classmates-to-be.

i'm interviewing tomorrow. is anyone else? i'll let you guys know how it goes
