Hi everyone,
I am noticing there is not a forum updated for UC just yet for the current application process. I have submitted an app for the Spring 2026 start during priority deadline of Nov 1. I attended an information session and could not remember if they do admissions and invitations for interviews on a rolling schedule or not since technically the deadline to have application fully submitted is Dec 1.
Good luck to anyone also applying. Hoping our CRNA dreams come true, whatever they may be 🙂

Thank you so much! Absolutely! I have a total of 7 years of nursing experience, including 4.5 years in adult ICU. This includes 1.5 years in a mixed ICU overseas, 1 year in a Critical Care Unit (covering medical, surgical, neurology/neurosurgery, and trauma cases), and 2 years in a CVICU.
I hold CCRN, CMC, and CSC certifications. I am trained on all devices (CRRT, IABP, Impella, LVAD/RVAD, ECMO) but don't have transplant experience. I care for patients with A-lines, Swan-Ganz catheters, Flotrac, and epicardial/transvenous pacers on a daily basis.
While I have never been a charge nurse, I have served as a preceptor. Also shadowed for 15 hours in different settings. I participated in a CRNA prep school academy's 12-month intensive program and was involved in the CRNA club. I attended the AANA Annual Congress, NTI, and the Ultrasound-Guided Skills Lab: Central Venous Access Preconference last year, along with several other anesthesia-related conferences. I am a current member of Nicole Kupchik Consulting and the AACN.
