Hi skyleap I am pre-pre CRNA and looking at different programs. If you don't mind can you share your stats and why you chose to apply to downstate... I heard not so great things about the program ( since it lost its designation a while back). how did your interview go what did they ask you???

Hello pinkpig. SUNNY Downstate was put on probation by AANA on April 10, 2008. Probation lasted one year and on 04/2009 the program was reviewed and given 6 years accreditation. I have heard many things but I guess I will never know for sure what caused their shut down. What really matters to me is the fact that they have obviously fixed whatever problem they had, otherwise they would not have been granted accreditation!

I applied there because they are geographically convenient and financially friendly. The fact that their class size is small is also a plus for me.

My interview is on January 6. I hope it goes well!!!

Happy New Year.

The OP is about Downstate's CRNA program. If you want to post about Downstate's accelerated BSN program, you can post in the student nurse forum or in the New York State Nursing Program forum.
