for future applicants reading this post, who have been accepted to both UT & BCM but are unable to decide which school to start, here is a reminder. Both schools are great, and have their individual strengths. However, it can not be under stated ...

Married. Worked for almost 4 years. Saved 50k.

Good Luck Guys! I interviewed at both Baylor & UT last year. Currently in UT's program. Make sure to study up on CCRN, especially for Baylor's Interview.

In addition to what ICUman, RN said? I completed every sentence on that list, some with more success than others. For example, my GRE score was average, and I only completed prerequisites courses that were required for admission, not any additional...

My class actually has 4 Pediatric ICU nurses, so I would choose whichever ICU that interests you more. The acuity on your unit matters more than the type of ICU, but yes in general CVICU & CTSICU offers the best experience. You should try to work...

CRNA school consumes your life. I'm just finishing up my first semester in a front loaded program so I'm pretty new to the rigors of school compared to others. However, in order to succeed you have to hit the ground running from the first day of clas...

I made my budget prior to school starting listing all the factors "m1lkofamnesia, BSN, RN" said. Even though I saved up 50k and my husband is still employed, we will have to take out student loans toward the later half of the program.

@CrnaTx, CRNA Nice, thats is higher than I hoped I would earn once I graduated, my goal was at least 160k a year. What city in Texas, if you dont mind answering?

Ill give you an outline of the fastest case scenario. Graduate HS at 18 with your ADN. Work for 1 year in an ICU while completing your ADN-BSN online, and shadow a CRNA. During your 2nd year as an ICU nurse, complete Acls/Pals, CCRN, and become a c...

Any advice for loans or scholarships available for Texas students?

Who are you refering to?

Do you mind stating your out of pocket costs? Or you can PM me. Thanks.

I will start at UT Health's CRNA program in Summer 2017, and am currently enrolled in UNE's online Organic Chemistry course. It is extremely hard, and I honestly wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Everyone I have spoken to recommends enrolling at HCC o...

I heard its a tremendous help to take Statistics and Research in the spring. I plan to at least. I'm not great with facebook but I would definitely want to establish a group for our class.

Multiple people have taken this course, yet I find the "help" offered to be underwhelming. Anyone willing to divulge actual help by PMing me? Thanks.

Hey possible classmates! I got in as well.

UT is my first choice, even if I had gotten into Baylor. If I don't get into UT, ill be attending school out of state in January.

I felt really good afterwards. But u never know for sure until u see an acceptance letter. My interview was 15 to 20 min. Good luck!

I agree 100%. I hope you realize this OP, since there hasn't been any update from you of the situation since the 20th. Your husband has a good paying job now. From this point forward, things should be better for you and your entire family. Let the pa...

Congratulations! No call for me either. Haven't received any email as well. Guess we will see who made the alternate list. I hoped to stay in Houston since I live here. I guess ill see whether UT pans out. If not, ill be starting CRNA school in Janua...

Got the email for interview. Mine is at 1: 30, which seems like a weird time. Are their interviews like 30 minutes and ur done for the rest of the day? Anyhow, guess I'll find out soon. They said they will send the official invites with more informat...

The admissions committee was able to move my interview to Saturday! I guess ill be seeing a lot of yall there lol Good luck everyone.

I received an invitation as well. I'm hoping I can move my interview day to Saturday. I made a request to move the date on the form, however we will see if they are able to.

Oh I didn't read your updated post EMB82250! Baylor has been super responsive with emails, I love that! Well good luck again to everyone! I hope to be vacationing in the Carribean the week after next. Knowing I was invited to interview would be the ...

My bad, yea that was from UT. I haven't heard anything at all from Baylor. From previous posts Ive seen on Allnurses, Baylor interviews were held around the end of August. Hopefully that holds true this year.
