What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing creating a Facebook group for accepted students, troubleshooting issues with confirmation links, sharing information about a created Facebook group, planning to take student-at-large courses before starting, asking about starting classes early, sharing acceptance deadlines, waitlist updates, and program advice for future applicants.

Wanted to start a forum for anybody else who has submitted to RUSH for the Fall of 2025!

I got a denial email but the subject was "update re: your nursingCAS application" 

LOL assuming the denial is accurate but why is everybody getting different messages and formats etc?

I was lucky to get my admission offer this week from the wait list. Good luck to everyone that is interviewing. I wish you all the best. 

And if you did not get an interview, let yourself have a moment to grieve. But then pick yourself back up, reflect, and make yourself stronger for the next application. If you really want to be a CRNA, do not give up.  Make sure next years application shows growth. 
*I did not get in on my first try*

Thank you so much!

I did interview at north shore. I thought they were friendly and I felt very comfortable. There is an impromptu writing assignment at the beginning. That is probably the most stressful part. There's no clinical questions. 
 

Rush felt very serious. No clinical questions though. 

if you search for interview questions, you will find variations of what many programs ask. If you would like any specific tips, feel free to message me.
