Updated:   Published

What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing their experiences with being waitlisted and accepted into a nursing program, specifically focusing on the timing of notifications and the process of being waitlisted. Some members have received acceptance letters after being waitlisted, while others are still waiting for updates. There is also discussion about improving applications for reapplying and increasing science GPA for future applications.

Anyone applying to RFU's CRNA program for May 2025 start? Applications open today in NursingCAS. I don't see the application yet so I plan to check again later in the day.

Specializes in ICU.

does any one know if a hold means a soft denial?

It shouldn't, because I got a straight up rejection - no invite for Kira or anything.

Has anyone else received an update? Had my information session on the 24th and I believe they said within a week but have not yet received an update.

What's your GPA? I have similar experiences and received a Kira and information despite (what I feel like) bombing the interview.

You'll definitely be interviewed at some point! Essentially same stats as me! I also have not received anything here. I think they may prioritize years of experience in their application. I also have around 1 as you do.

Thank you, but they already rejected me. I got the email today.

But hopefully you get an interview!

What exactly is this information session composed of? How much time should I spend studying clinical questions? is it 1:1 or group the whole time? 

Also- does this session the last step before they decide to let you in or not?

Could someone kindly explain "hold" vs "waitlist" after the KIRA or in-person interview or after both?

Check the FAQ on the website; they explain what a hold and being waitlisted means.
