  2. GRE and admission to CRNA school

    JWOkStRN replied to CV CCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I cannot answer to what they will and will not overlook. I do know that should you be granted an interview they will ask you to explain what you feel contributed to the low score. Retaking it is...

  3. GRE and admission to CRNA school

    JWOkStRN replied to CV CCRN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    They'll ask a bout the GRE score in interview. Just be prepared to answer for your short comings. It's only one part of a whole person/package they are

    JWOkStRN replied to srnainthemaking13's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yes, I am currently in a cohort. Just finished first semester distance learning. It's hard to have a real gauge bc I'm still out of state and class is currently online, but so far I enjoy my...

  5. CRNA FIU Starting Spring 2019

    JWOkStRN replied to srnainthemaking13's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I got my invitation for interview on May 2nd last year. However, I was that over achiever that had my application turned in by February. I interviewed May 19th and had my acceptance letter May 31st....

  6. HELP! Online Graduate courses prior to starting CNRA school

    JWOkStRN replied to ekatz's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    khalStorm, While being proactive is a very good thing, my advice is to hold off before you start taking graduate level courses since you just boarded. Take some time to focus on your new position,...

    JWOkStRN replied to srnainthemaking13's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am currently in FIU's program and finishing my first semester. I got in with an abysmal GPA from my first Bach degree (2.45...yeah, partied a lot, hated my major, young and stupid, you get the...

    Hello all, I have submitted my application University of South Carolina CRNA program. Is anyone else applying? Deadline is in two

  9. What kind of loans for CRNA school?

    JWOkStRN replied to walkerrn2015's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I did federal loans and Grad Plus. Grad plus will lend up to the cost of school just like a private loan. Just know that with a private lender (like Sallie Mae) the school has to certify that the...

  10. CRNA application- am I qualified?

    JWOkStRN replied to CharICU's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    You are definitely on the right track. Selection to a program is relative to what a program is looking for in their candidates. Each program weighs different aspects of their application and selection...

    Applied to 3. Interviewed at 2. Accepted. Had a list of

  12. Got into CRNA school. now cold feet?

    JWOkStRN replied to cticunurse's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am in the same position. No cold feet but some trepidation as Bluebolt said. My husband and I don't have kids, but we are liquidating everything we own, selling our home, and relocating across the...

  13. Nursing Experience for CRNA school

    JWOkStRN replied to nurserobinson281988's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    No one is trying to dumb down experience here. I'm sure you have gotten to see and experience great things. However, I caution you on thinking that because you've cared for a specific population of...

  14. Nursing Experience for CRNA school

    JWOkStRN replied to nurserobinson281988's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Just because someone is not recovering hearts and working in a MICU/STICU or what have you, does not mean they are not dealing with hemodynamics. Quality does make a difference per say on what and how...

  15. Nursing Experience for CRNA school

    JWOkStRN replied to nurserobinson281988's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    While I respect your opinion, I too, feel that one year of ICU experience is hardly enough to understand how to care for the crashing patient appropriately. At one year you are just figuring out how...

  16. Do I Measure Up? CRNA Application

    JWOkStRN replied to GoldenPups's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Not to sound like a jerk, but for someone to have all of 90 days worth of ICU experience and be selected for a CRNA program sounds fishy to me. That's hardly enough time to be familiar with any...

  17. What is CRNA school like?

    JWOkStRN replied to Nuru's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I was accepted to a DNAP program with a BA in Political Science and an ADN. I had a large amount of science classes bc I was premed for my second BS I didn't finish. So, there are options out there....

  18. University of Tulsa Nurse Anesthetist Program

    JWOkStRN replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yes. I was accepted to FIU in Miami, Florida. So big move in July. I'll start online doctoral classes in January. If you want the option of staying in OK try looking at TCU. There is a distance...

  19. University of Tulsa Nurse Anesthetist Program

    JWOkStRN replied to CowboyMedic's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I find it odd that they are omitting the CCRN or GRE requirement as a way to vet applicants. What i can see potentially happening is a significantly small class size (which is not a bad thing),...

  20. TCU CRNA program for Jan 2018

    JWOkStRN replied to Trauma-Nurse's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Who interviewed today? How do you feel? My heart goes out to y'all in Houston. Keep on keeping

  21. Best vs Quickest route to CRNA

    JWOkStRN replied to malthus's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    My two cents: Do whatever route fits you and your needs best. I was in the military myself. I left AD in 2009, got a job as a nurse tech in an ICU, got into an ADN program starting fall of 2010,...

  22. Unreasonable intimidation

    JWOkStRN posted a topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Hello all, I am fortunate to have the amazing opportunity to begin my CRNA journey as an SRNA in January. I always welcome a challenge and I'm excited to begin a new chapter of my life. With that...

  23. best/most affordable CRNA path for a career change

    JWOkStRN replied to niiicole's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    The commitment required for CRNA school needs to be more than financially driven. Does the earning potential help? Absolutely, however, you have got to want to be a CRNA for more than the money. It is...

  24. How to find the right school Crna school?

    JWOkStRN replied to ChooSoul's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Try all-crna-schools.com. Pretty comprehensive list and you can search by state. It links to each schools website and offers information on prerequisites and admissions criteria. I'm not sure how...

  25. What makes a good candidate

    JWOkStRN replied to Alexxoxox's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    It was unlike any other interview I've done. Mine was a mix of "getting to know you" and clinical assessment. To me, there was more at stake with my graduate school interview than a job interview....
