Thank you for your help, I guess I will just apply and state on my application when I will take the exam. The schools that I am applying for don't have it on their admission requirements.

There are a few schools that I wanted to apply to but I haven't taken my CCRN as of yet. I am taking a review class in April and taking the exam in May. The deadlines for the schools are in March and April. I know that the CCRN makes your application stand out but is there anyone that was accepted without the CCRN? Should I apply and state on my application when I'm taking the exam or should I just forget about applying to those schools this year? Thank you in advance for your help.

Thank you for your responses.

Hello all, I am applying into several CRNA programs this year and most schools require a recommendation from a current supervisor/manager. Now here's my dilemma that I would appreciate some feedback from. My current supervisor is not very fond of me, at first I thought it was me, but the longer I work at this facility, the more it is becoming apparent that my supervisor is a pure jerk. So I am caught in between a rock and a hard place. I need her reference but am not too sure what type of reference she is going to give me. What should I do?

Thank you all for your help...I guess I will be staying at my current job.

I'm trying to get into CRNA school and will be applying this year for admission next year and have worked in the ICU for 1.5 years in a community hospital. I'm in a situation where I have to look for another job, I have a pending offer for an ICU position in an LTAC (Long term acute care) facility. Before I accept this position I wanted to know if having an LTAC on my resume decreases my chances of getting accepted into CRNA school? Are LTAC facilities considered real ICU experience? Thanks in advance for your input. The advice given on this forum is invaluable and I appreciate all your help.
