Hey everyone!

Who all is applying to University of Arizona DNP CRNA this cycle? I'm getting so excited!

You’ll get in next year I’m sure. In my interview, the faculty seemed disinterested and asked questions in a manner that heavily suggested they thought I was stupid and/or a waste of their time. Plus it was plagued with technical issues I had no way to fix so they could barely hear me for most of my fifteen minutes. So if you had a good experience then you were probably pretty darn close and were just barely edged out by someone else. And they won’t be in the application pool next year!

Thanks for your encouragement ? I appreciate it. I hope we both get in next time!

I believe in you all! I feel like everyone was set up to fail. How can they possible interview 80+ applicants for 20-some spots.

I ended up interviewing. Got waitlisted.

Only 1 clinical question. The rest were personality-based, and I asked 2 questions.

Did anyone get in and planning to accept the offer? Would love to connect!

I got in, and am still deciding. I really haven’t been a fan of their whole process or the responsiveness from the University itself…..

That’s fair! I’m still deciding as well

This might sound very biased. But if I were to get through the application and pick schools between my acceptances again. I will still choose the University of Arizona. CRNA school is hard no matter where you go. But the faculty in this program has been exceptional. After hearing what my colleagues go through in other programs, I am grateful for every minute that I chose this program.

I can’t message you because I’m a new member? Sorry, still trying to figure out how this site works ?

post your email and ill send you a message

Question for those accepted. The email I received says I was recommended for the CRNA program and that I need to fill out the intent to enroll form. I did this saying that I will accept this offer. The email also says that the Graduate College will make the official decision if I got in. This makes me feel like I still have a possibility of not being accepted. Is this just the process everyone goes through? Thanks
