Hey TCU class! I was just accepted as well. I never imagined I'd actually get to choose where I go to CRNA school, I thought I'd be lucky to convince just one admissions committee into letting me in! I thoroughly enjoyed my TCU interview experience. I really feel like TCU will have my back no matter what, and the students I talked to had zero complaints. Strange question considering how good the interview experience was, but does anyone else now get the pleasure of deciding which program to go to? I have to decide between Rush and TCU. Now that the choice needs to be made, the lines have become blurred.

I'm in too!! I will be in Baton Rouge (not sure how I ended up there seeing as how it wasn't even on my top 5 choices for clinicals, but oh well). I can't wait to meet you all! Congratulations everyone! :)

congrats to every one. I got accepted too. The Interview experience was really laid back as opposed to other schools. I've never heard any complaints about TCU.

@HornedFrogRN Thanks for your candid reply. I do feel the schooling gets sugar-coated in the honeymoon phase of new-acceptance, probably. This is definitely not an easy program, but hopefully, the rewards are great and is worth it. Good luck to all us newbies.

Hi everybody! I am very interested in TCU's CRNA program. What I have read online has really impressed me. I would love to apply this year. My question is - would I be a competitive candidate?

CVICU RN, 2 years experience

ED RN, 3 years experience

BSN, CCRN, PALS, ACLS, TNCC

Level 1 trauma center, CV unit does ECMO, VAD's.

working on a chemistry class now to hopefully bump my gpa up a bit (3.3 cumulative) I like that the program takes 55-65 a year. Can anyone guess how many apply? What is the interview process like? And finally, website states early applications are accepted. How early is early? Ideally I would wait until May when my chemistry class is finished to put final application in

Thanks everyone

I a man currently in an ADN program. As soon as I finish I plan to start my rn-bsn at Texas Tech asap. My goal is to become a CRNA and I would love to attend the program at TCU. Any tips on what I should start doing now to prepare myself to be a qualified candidate?
