What Members Are Saying (AI-Generated Summary)

Members are discussing starting their program in 2025 or 2026, housing options, course schedules, tuition costs, dress codes, and Facebook groups for their cohort. Some users were initially rejected but later accepted due to an increase in student intake. There is also confusion about the Facebook group for the class of 2027 and questions about enrollment procedures.

Hello, is anyone applying to University of Pittsburgh's CRNA program for Spring 2025?

Wondering the same thing. I haven't received anything via email from my end yet.

(MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME - PLEASE DO NOT POST NAMES/IDENTIFYING INFORMATION OF INDIVIDUALS IN YOUR PROGRAM PER TOS) said two letters would be out about 10 days after I got his call on June 14. If they worked on all the weekends, then today is the 10th day. I believe they will be arriving soon, but I am also prepared for a delay because those official acceptance letters and enrollment instructions are bound to be very detailed and informative. I'm sure they'll need to plug each individual's information into those documents carefully to ensure we don't receive a letter with someone else's name on it. It should be quite a task, so just be patient and wait for the time to come.

Specializes in ICU/RAPID nurse.

Though I have not been accepted this answer is going to vary greatly. Pitt uses a point system for their interviews(no one outside of faculty knows how they calculate it so don't ask LOL), so the acceptances they did recently seemed to have been for people who met a certain point threshold. This included people who interviewed from as far back and the first interview in March to some who interviewed at the end of May. 

There was no uniform timeline as acceptances were grouped and given out in a specific timeframe. Similarly, they will start calling the rest of the acceptances after the final interview this Friday...  I would expect for the rest of us to hear back starting mid to end of July.

I can attest to this - I was in the March interview group and learned of my acceptance on 6/14. I know there are people that interviewed late April and found out the same day as I.

I interviewed on May 30th, so I was super lucky to not have to wait months for a response!

Per the director the fee is still being confirmed with the registrar's office but should only be 250$ or around that to secure the seat
