No problem! I actually found out a couple weeks ago that I got accepted!

I just found out that I got in!!

I was told I would hear by the end of March but I haven't heard yet and I'm on vaca this week so I'm guessing I won't hear until I get back... How about you??

I had my interview yesterday! I think it went well but who knows! Only 16 spots for the MSN program :/ I will find out at the end of March! Good luck!

I applied for the adult/gero acute care MSN program! Stpollard how did your interview go?

Let me know how your interview goes! I haven't scheduled mine yet.

I applied to the ACNP for 2015... I appled late and they still accepted my application and told me to schedule either a phone or in person interview! I'm so nervous/excited! Any other advice or questions you can think of from your interview would be ...

I am in the same situation. I've worked in the OR for 2 years and actually thought I wanted to be a CRNA since I love the OR, I wanted to further my education but stay in the setting I love. So I transferred to an ICU step-down floor for about 5 mont...

I did not apply to UCONN's program because I think I missed the deadline. However I am looking into Quinnipiac. Have you looked/applied to their MSN program?

Hi everyone, I am starting to apply to APRN school and I'm wondering who you think it is best to get reference letters from. I only need two and I have good rapport with the nurse director of surgical services also my manager and my clinical advisor...

Thank you for the responses! The requirement for recommendations is this : Two letters of recommendation from persons with authority to evaluate your professional ability.

I work on an ICU step down and we do vitals q2 and assessments q4 and we have 3 patients I cant imagine doing all of that on 5!

Army twin, I'm also in your situation, I've worked in the OR with no floor experience until September when I transferred to an ICU step down floor at my hospital. It's terrifying but I'm learning a ton in hopes of getting ICU experience and going to ...

Recently I left the OR to go to an ICU step down for more experience. I want to go back to school to be a CRNA but I'm starting to think I just want to go back to the OR. I really like working in the OR that's why I want to be a CRNA, I want more res...

Are in the OR in CT? That is where I am!

I've been there since September... I am also still per diem. I needed different experience too but I'm thinking the OR a where I belong. I'm just so stressed!

I was in the OR for two years and now am on an ICU step down floor in hopes of someday going to the ICU. I question myself everyday if I can make it on this floor! It's definitely hard and I feel like a new grad but the other nurses that I'm starting...

I was in the same boat as you! I interviewed at 3 ICU's trying to get out of the OR. I didn't get any of the positions but I did get offered a position on a step down unit. The manager of the ICU told me to work on step down for a year and then she w...

I don't have much experience with RNFA's. They aren't used much in New England that I am aware of. Sorry I can't help more with that!

When I oriented to the OR I only got two weeks of scrub training... I could get through a smaller case but definitely couldn't do a big complex case. I didn't like scrubbing at first but now I wish I had more training so I could. I would request to b...

I am just looking for some advice... I've worked in the OR for 2 years and I am transferring to a step down unit but staying per diem in the OR. Should I sign up to take the CNOR exam? Or is it not worth it since I'm not there full time? Thanks!

I'm leaving the OR in a month! Do you have to currently be working there to take the test?

Good point!
