University of Cincinnati

Nursing Students SRNA

Published

I am new to the site, but just got the acceptance e-mail to University of Cincinnati for Sept '07. Wondering if anyone else out there is planning to enter this class? It would be nice to know someone before I ge there...

I have found the information here to be invaluable in my quest to get accepted to a program. Thanks to all who have posted and shared information.

Specializes in OR, ICU, CRNA.

There is a wealth of knowledge to be had pertaining to UC and other schools' interviews here on Allnurses. I have posted several times concerning my Fall '07 interview (i.e. pg3 of this very thread). If i had more time I would be happy to copy/paste, but as a busy first year SRNA I don't. There is also alot from the class that just finished in Dec. '07 from when they were applying/interviewing in 2003. I think it should be pretty close to the same format unless they decide to really break with tradition. You can search mine and others' posts and I think you will find alot of good info.

For those coming from out of town...you should pretty much be given first precedence for interview choice/time r/t travel arrangements if you politely ask for it and do so in a timely manner. Look into flying into Dayton (about an hour north of Cincy) and compare rates--the Cincy airport is actually across the river in northern KY and I don't consider it that close, especially if you can get alot cheaper ticket (I flew Frontier into Dayton) to Dayton--alot of Delta flights come into Cincinnati too--so check Delta. Just be sure to give yourself plenty of time to park, find the hospital lobby, check in, and have some time to chill before the big interview. I don't know exactly who the 3rd year students are who will be helping herd you around and answer your questions, but I can say that as a class they are a very organized and cohesive bunch. I well remember the stress you guys are going through; I also remember the excitement when I got my acceptance. Revel in it for a little bit if you can, b/c you will be working your butts off come September LOL. Seriously, I wish you the best of luck.
