Oh man I really empathize with you on this one. I was a single mother when I first started considering anesthesia school as well. How old is your daughter? My son is 7 and if I had to do it by myself now that he's older I absolutely would. My parents...

This is very sound advice. I'm not in crna school yet but I'm applying to start next year and my husband will graduate from a crna program in December. It hasn't always been easy on our relationship but I always knew it is only a temporary sacrifice....

Both CRNA programs I'm applying to require one of your 3 references to be from your current nurse manager. The problem is I just started a new job in February and I feel a little weary about asking my manager for a reference for school so soon after ...

That's a great idea. I am going to call and check. Thank you!

I don't think it will be a problem. I'm in the same boat. I do however plan to address this in my interviews if I get that far. I have a few friends in crna programs with similar pasts and they were either asked to explain (and most schools were empa...

I'm confused how this relates to my original post? I never said I wouldn't be honest; I just wanted to hear others opinions because I feel as though I may be worrying and overreacting over something silly.

Atc1324...I wouldn't. Your resume looks great..just be prepared for interviews and I think you'll be fine!

I only took it once and i made a 295 with a written score of 3.5. I'm 31 and been out of school for a while...I studied for 3 months while working full time night shift and being a single mom so I was pretty happy with that score. I'm not worried muc...

LSU and Our Lady of the Lake

It's a doctorate program 3 years total...first two semesters online

I can't speak for all programs but it seems like in my area the most important thing is your interview. I am applying this year and my GPA from 8 years,ago is a 3.1 but I have 3 years experience in all ICU'S and a ton of certs....so I'm not that wor...

Allcanbe they wouldn't. That doesn't matter when applying. I agree with other responses. I'm applying for CRNA this year and my husband will graduate crna school in December and he said lots of his classmates had less than stellar gpas. I have a 3.1 ...

A guy on our unit found out last week he got in. He didn't get his preferred clinical site but still got in. He thought he bombed his interview though but I think everyone feels that way.

I would call the surgery department where you work. I shadowed at the hospital I work at and it was easy.

I don't think you are ever to old to achieve something you want. Life is too short I'm about to turn 31 and I'm applying this year. Sometimes it gives me some anxiety because I know most people are in their mid 20's when attending with no kids or spo...
