Hi!! I recently got an interview for CRNA school at St. john fisher in Rochester! and I was wondering if anybody is in the same boat!! If you interviewed yet, what was the process like? I believe they are newly accredited. Thank you in advance!

How was the interview? Was it in person? Was it AI based, clinical based, or both?  Also for those attending the program now, how is it? Thanks in advance 

 

In person, pharmacology heavy (subject to change), would recommend studying CCRN content for ALL schools you decide to apply to. Not sure what you mean by AI based, but not AI. The program is amazing, these teachers really want to see you succeed which is imperative. I believe the interview itself was the most important part of the selection process. Be yourself and study up! I believe they're taking 12 students again.

Hi! I noticed that this discussion was pretty active in October 2024. I'm assuming this was for the 2025 January start date? 
 

I applied for the January 2026 start date. Has anyone gotten any email regarding their status for 2026? 


From what I see online, they will send out invites by April 15th 2025 and then interview in June. Does anyone know if this is updated information or if they have changed their timeline?

Sorry I meant to say EI, emotional intelligence, not AI.

Just prepare the most you can and bring that energy to the table. EI was not measured imo but that is subject to change in the future. Most importantly, go in there with some confidence and smile! Half the battle is landing the interview.

Hey I'm in the same boat! When are you interviewing? Mine is Oct 15!

How did it go? Could  you please tell me more about the interview? My interview is next month! I have some questions in hopes to be better prepared! 

- how long was the interview? 

- what style was the interview, one on one, panel of how many people, did they integrate a group interview with other students at any point? 

- what were the names of people who interviewed you? 

- what subjects did they focus on? 

- how many questions was the written test? 

- what did you wear? Suit? Dress? 

** Any advice you have going into interview? 

Thank you!!
