Anyone have any information on class size? 

Specializes in CTICU.

Received an update from UC Davis. They postponed secondary applications until new year. New timeline for secondary applications is January-February 2025.

 

Specializes in CTICU.

Inspirationalpropofol—class size is 15 which they mentioned during the in-person info session at UC Davis. Dr. Jake said its possible to open up to 20 if there are very strong candidates but they prefer to start with a smaller cohort of 15.
