I was updating my application to Kaiser's MSN CRNA program, and once I was in, found out this shocking news, guess many people will not apply...
CRNA Program Update
Pending final California State University Chancellor's Office approval, starting in Fall 2018, this CRNA program will be transitioned from an MSN program to a DNP program. The program will be offered through Kaiser Permanente School of Anesthesia and the Southern California CSU DNP Consortium which includes CSU Fullerton, CSU Long Beach and CSU Los Angeles. CSU Fullerton will be still be the primary university partner for the program.
All the information on the CSUF School of Nursing and the KPSA websites will be updated in the next few weeks. The Governor just signed the bill to make this change possible on October 12, 2017 and we were unable to publicize this change until the bill was signed.
The study plan is pending final approval from the CSU Chancellor's office but you may view the proposed study plan by clicking on the link: DNP CRNA Study Plan.
The application process and all admission requirements remain the same for the Fall 2018 admission cycle. If you are seeing this information, you have completed Steps 1 – 3 of the admission process and are eligible to submit the online CSUF School of Nursing application (Step 4).
Prior to starting the application for Fall 2018, please review the chart below which highlights the major changes for the program.
