So did MSA not offer DNP spots?

Just now?

What time did you hear? I'm assuming then if we haven't heard, we didn't get it.

I will be starting CRNA school this May and have been worrying about all the same things. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone here for all the encouraging words - it's so easy to worry & be scared that I'm not good enough or won't make it.

Did it sound to you like you're away from Charleston then for months at a time? And congratulations!!!

Does anyone know how often you have clinicals outside the Charleston area?

Anyone interview yet? How did it go if so?

I am looking into taking this course. How have you liked it so far? Is it hard to balance with work? It seems challenging & interesting!

I haven't heard anything.

If any alternates hear news, I would love it if you shared updates here ?

It seems like quite a few of us on here at least?

Thank you ❤️ best of luck at TCU!!!

Did you get an interview slot last year when you were an alternate?

I got put on the alternate list for interviews. Trying to be hopeful. Hoping you guys got a slot to interview? ?

Wow! I can't imagine reading that many essays/applications. It must be hard to choose, as I'm sure they get lots of qualified applicants!

Maybe we will get lucky & this will be the week we hear ?

Oh I didn't realize that! Very cool. Thank you for your insight ? I'm so excited about the program and really hoping I get the chance to interview.

Are you liking the program so far? Are you from the Charleston area? Sorry for all my questions ? thank you!

Thank you so much for your response!! This helps so much. ? Do you remember when you found out about getting an interview? How much ICU experience did you have? Again, thank you SO much for sharing!!

Deadline day! ? Best of luck to everyone!

Does anyone know much about MUSC's process? Like what the interview might be like, or how many students they take? It seems like such an amazing program!

Nothing yet here but excitedly waiting/hoping ?

My check has now been processed as well! Good luck to everyone ? it's nice to be able to update each other here.

I understand how you feel, as I also look really young. Sometimes patients/families will ask me how old I am, or make a comment or joke about me being "old enough to be a nurse", etc. I know it can make you feel really bad, even though oftentimes they do mean it as a compliment! What has worked for me in these situations is just to tell them my age (if they directly ask) and just try to smile/calmly move onward. As I became more confident in my skills as a nurse, these comments started to bother me less because I believed in myself - that I was capable & qualified to provide good care. I know that might not help, but I just wanted to let you know you aren't alone out there ?

My check hasn't been processed yet either. I wonder if they wait to do them all together after the Oct 31 deadline passes? ?
