Specializes in ICU.

Starting this thread for anyone who applied to University of Southern California Keck CRNA program. Application deadline just now has passed. Waiting to hear back on a possible interview. Would be helpful if others joined so we can track the timeline together.

I just applied!  I am excited to see what happens next. I noticed on USC's website they posted the following Stats. 

Enrollment Data (Summer 2023):

Total applications: 56
Entering class: 24
Mean cumulative GPA: 3.51
Mean verbal and quantitative GRE: 302
Mean years of critical care nursing: 3.42

Does this mean that 56 applied for the Summer 2023 Cohort?

That's what it looks like. I wonder why such a low number applied. 

Hi there!

 

I applied as well. It's funny to see this forum just opened up recently! I was frantically searching for one last time. Anyways, good luck to us all!

 

btw on that 56 number, I think that was the number they chose to interview. And then the select few were chosen from there

Oh that sounds more realistic. Wonder when we'll hear back about interview decisions 

I applied here as well. I am not expecting an interview. Applying was a very last minute decision and I did POORLY on my GRE. But still wishing everyone luck. Those STATS that someone posted feel somewhat reassuring though?

I spoke to the program director and assistant program director at CANA. They told me they will meet in about a week to determine who would proceed with applications. They told me about 50 will be selected for 24-25 spots. They also told me this year the GRE counts as Zero points on there candidate selection rubric. They also told me that the GRE will be removed as a prerequisite for next year. 

Following! I'm hoping to hear back with good news about interview invites in the next couple days! Good luck everyone
