Does anyone who attended the info session or has spoken directly with the program care to give insight on details? How supportive and warm does the program and staff sound? Do they offer mission trips abroad like some other programs? Grading scale?

When did you apply? Someone on this thread applied on the 25th and already heard back. I did not apply until May 1st. LOL

3/15 I submitted. They got my nursingCAS 3/24. I have a colleague who submitted prior to me and his status is still the committee review. So they are definitely not reviewing in chronological order of who turned in the app first.

For the supplemental application, did you guys apply using "Nursing Practice- DNP" or "Nurse Anesthesia- DNP"? The instructions I were given was to apply using the generic "Nursing Practice- DNP" option but the "Nurse Anesthesia- DNP" made more sense.

Hi! I was able to attend the info session and I can say that the staff was extremely friendly and excited about their program. The session went way over in time because they stayed to make sure they answered everybody's questions which I thought was awesome, as I'm sure they're all very busy. They have plans in place to support students. I don't recall anybody talking about mission trips. Grading scale is percentage based.

The school is having graduation ceremonies Wednesday to Saturday I believe. School of nursing was yesterday. So not sure how much progress the admissions department or CRNA program will be making based on all the events on the campus this week.
