Rosalind Franklin CRNA 2021

Updated:   Published

Hello all!

I have read all of the posts from the 2020 group and wanted to start the 2021 thread in hopes of connecting with other applicants while we all try and navigate this during the pandemic. I applied to RFU CRNA DNP program and have scheduled my interview. I have not received the email with the interview information in it, but I am certain it is via webcam. Does anyone have any additional info or tips of how to best prepare? I am of course revisiting all of my CCRN material! Has anyone else scheduled their interview, if so did you receive notification of being granted an interview? I log on and check my checklist frequently and when I logged on it was there for me to schedule, so I did. I am extremely excited, just curious if anyone else experienced this. Also, are they interviewing everyone since they will be over webcam? Looking forward to connecting with y'all!

How is everyone preparing for their upcoming interview? I am so nervous and worried that I am not studying the right things.

I had an overall 3.63 GPA and 3.2 science GPA looolol. My BSN GPA (and last 60 credit hours) was a 3.78. I had x1 year of ER experience in a community hospital and x2+ years of CVICU experience in a level 1/teaching university hospital when I was accepted. I'm currently doing travel nursing in the ICU to save up some coin before school in June! Best of luck to you.

Hey everyone! I am interviewing on the 23rd and was curious if any one knows if the university is doing online school for the beginning of the course due to covid or if everything is still in person?

TBD. But they anticipate the first quarter to be mostly online
