No, You Do Not Have To Sign On For Mayo To Receive Stipend. All Students Receive A Small Stipend Of Around $500 A Month During 24 Month Clinical. If You Do Sign On To Work For Mayo, You Can Recieve An Additional $1000 A Month. It Is A Nice Option To Have If You Decide To Stay In The Area.

As for the ranking system, I am not sure how accurate that is. I interviewed at Mayo in December and was accepted. I am from outside the facility and outside the state, and I guess I got lucky to get in. Most all the other applicants had wonderful experience and most were from the Mayo ICU's. I really enjoyed my interview and the information I received while there. They are open about what there program offers and what it does not. In most facilities as a CRNA, you will not be the one putting in SWANS and centrals, and the variety and scope of cases you are able to be invloved with at Mayo are awesome. Every year in recent past 100% of students passed boards on the first try, and several received a perfect score. the CRNA graduating from Mayo generally have a great reputation and extensive caseload backround. Plus, you can not beat the tuition

Yes, I was referring to the CRNA admission interview. :) Please Help!!!

I would love to hear if anyone has interviewed at Mayo Clinic. I received my letter for interview today and I am so excited and nervous. The letter says the interview will last from 9am-5:30 pm, and that we will be interviewd by several people and have a tour of the facilities. This is definitely going to be a long stressful day. Please let me know if you have any info and tips on what to brush up on. Thanks...:)
