University of Maryland CRNA 2020

Same, but I don't think their is anything to be ashamed of, obviously the competition was super high this year.

Just some friendly advices. If guys have low science GPA, please retake classes to improve your chances as they will ask you in the interview. Also, I encourage you all to shadow a CRNA, as they will ask about your experience in the interview. Also have some knowledge of current issues affecting CRNA? Tip: know about AA and how they're affecting CRNA outlook. Good luck everyone. 

My science gpa definitely wasn’t low and i have over 40 hours of shadowing in the last month alone. I think whenever you have 450 people applying for 30 spots your inevitable going to have candidates that aren’t selected. Im actually planning on attending MANA this week in OC maybe ill get some insight there.

Given the stats you provided. I don't see why you wouldn't get a interview. From what Dr. P told us in class is that he has only received about 260 applications from the admissions department so far. So I wouldn't count yourself out until he has chance to review all of the applications.  Be hopeful and positive. I know they are behind informing applicants for interview compared to last year when we received it around Sept 18th but they have never received these many applications before either also.

Does anyone have concrete evidence that says if it switches back to completed it means you're done for sure?  Mine says completed as well by the way! 

Mine never changed from competed. It’s been that way since the eve of the application deadline.

No, I was definitely just making an assumption because my application previously read committee review... And you know what happens when you assume things (make an *** of u n me =] ). Nobody knows anything until interview invitations go out.

There is no concrete evidence that states if your status changes from committee review back to complete that you are out. I called admissions and they stated that they will either email you or call you for an interview. She also said that she is not sure why the system keeps changing application statuses. So no one really knows. I would just wait in they next couple weeks to see what happens. Hope this makes people feel better.

I’m not going to get worked up about it. Mine changed to completed too, but surely at least one of us got an interview and it sounds like everyone’s is saying completed now. I’m going to take it as a sign that progress has been made and invites will go out soon

Right on sister!  Way to stay positive!!

Mine says completed as well. I’m just thinking it is because they are finished reviewing our applications and invites should be going out shortly

GUYYYYYSSSS I think they’re starting to send out interview emails! Check your inbox/junk mail!
