I just got an email inviting me to interview.

Oh interesting, thanks for the insight!

If they're going on a rolling basis though are they not sending acceptances as they go? The director said they're doing rolling admissions.

Their deadlines are misleading. I asked about it during an information meeting, and the Director said the deadlines are set by the school of nursing. However, the admissions committee is going on a rolling basis, and offering interviews as they recei...

No one else end up getting an invite to interview this week?

Yeah curious if this is some anomaly for this year or if this is the new norm for CRNA schools (3-7% acceptance rates)

Same, thinking I was getting an interview but it turned into a "yeah probably not" with 500-600 applications.

Yeah...I've done about 6 interview sessions with programs across the country in the last month or so and they've all reported an extremely high number of applications this year, all in excess of 300, with some closer to 500.

They were hoping to get them out by this coming week (second week of April), but said it may be later due to a high volume of applicants as they had received over 300 as of two weeks prior to the deadline.

For 4/12? When did you apply?

Ah right on, best of luck! I'm wondering how often they're sending out waves of invites.

Anyone get, or hear of anyone getting, an interview for April 12th yet?

I don't have access to the FIU account yet, but nothing on their program website or CAS says we need to submit transcripts to them directly. I also saw someone here mention a background check, but I did not see that listed anywhere on their website,...

How long did it end up taking for your application to become verified?

How do you get access to this? Do you eventually get an email to set up access after completing the secondary application? I submitted my CAS and the secondary application, but the secondary application was just a couple of questions, my CAS ID, and...

Yeah it's a little confusing. The instructions say it has to be "complete" by the deadline. Complete per CAS means everything is turned in. It can take the 10 business days to move from "complete" to verified. Leads me to think as long as it's all su...

Mine too, so I think they won't have to look at those again after you actually submit. Maybe someone knows more though ?

Do they process transcripts when they are received, or not until you submit your application? I too am waiting for my last letter of recommendation to submit, and per CAS, they won't process your application until everything is in. I hope this does...

Second week of April

There are interviews being conducted this week. She didn't give the specific date, just said it was this week. Invites had already been sent for the first day of interviews. She didn't make a comment about out of state versus in state being invited...

Information meeting today said they have received over 300 applications this year so far. They are planning on interviewing 96 applicants for 45 seats. Average GPA last year was 3.7 with a science GPA of 3.8, with 3 years of ICU experience. This yea...

The info they put out in the information meeting today is the deadlines don't mean much and they are doing rolling admissions. If you don't get an invite to the first interview, you're still eligible to get an interview invite for a later date. The ...

Don't be so literal you know what I meant.

They told me people from the second deadline would be interviewed and accepted to the program. I wonder if they're only taking top of the top right now for interviews, and once they have the apps from the second deadline, more offers will go out to b...

I'm trying to get transcripts from Grand Canyon University overnighted to NursingCAS because the one I requested weeks ago seems to have gone missing (that's twice now from GCU). After I paid the $43 to GCU for an overnight transcript, they told me t...
