Scranton / Wyoming Valley CRNA program

Published

Hello all I have been searching for any information on the University of Scranton/ Wyoming Valley's Nurse Anesthesia program and cannot find any recent posts. Does anyone know anything about this program or interview process?

Also, I noticed that this school is not ranked very high on the US News' ranking of Nurse Anesthesia schools. Does anyone know why some schools are ranked higher than others and do these rankings accurately reflect the quality of the school's education and the school's ability to prepare me to become a great anesthesia provider? I read the rankings with a grain of salt as I believe that with anything in life it is our own responsibility to make the best of any opportunity that we are given - whether it is at the number one school of the last ranked school. Thanks in advance for your help!

:banghead: I don't get it, this is ridiculous. They were my first choice, but now I have committed to another program.

I have no idea what happened over there. I was told I would get a response by January and that has long come and gone. When I called, I didn't really get a reason for the hold up.

I just called the anesthesia program this AM, they said they sent out the letters and did everything on their part but admissions needs to send them. I called graduate admissions after and they told me that they did not get any decisions yet from the anesthesia program. I then proceeded to explain to her that the program just told me that they sent letters to the admissions office. This office then directed me to the dean of graduate admissions to ask him what the deal is with the situation over there. Soooo. I did that and got his secretary, who told me thaty he is out of the office until next week and she doesnt know any info. what the heck!!

got my "letter of acceptance". The acceptance letters for fall 2013 are conditional until negotiations are final between the university and CH. Final notice of acceptance should be around august 1st, if not, no class.

Rhino rocket.. I got my letter today too. Did you have to sign a blue form for priority status? That letter is confusing to me
