University of Tulsa - CRNA 2024

Published

Hi everyone! I didn't see a post for people applying to Tulsa's CRNA program for 2024 start, so I figured I would start one. I figured whoever wanted to could share their experience, stats, interview dates, etc.

As for me, I have a little over 3 years experience, 1 year and 8 months in Med/Surg ICU, after that I transitioned to CTICU and have been here for 1 year and 7 months. I have my CCRN and CSC, science GPA is around 3.5, cumulative GPA is around 3.8. I also have been a preceptor and charge nurse in my unit. 

Good luck to everyone!! I look forward to chatting with you all! 

When did you guys show up? Gotten a lot of conflicting emails about interview time. Emailed them but haven't heard back.

Specializes in Med/Surg ICU, CTICU.

I got an email with a new interview time and was still told to show up no earlier than 15 minutes before the scheduled time. My original interview time was 10 am but was rescheduled for 11 am due to them needing more time with each candidate.

Go with the updated time that was sent to u

Initial email said to show up like an hour before the interview time. Then I've gotten two more emails changing interview time. Are you guys going with showing up no earlier than 10 minutes before instead of the hour before they initially said? Didn't know when we would be doing the tour and assessments.

Yes. Show up 10-15 minutes early. Some students will give you a tour, then you will do your written assessment. Once that is done, one faculty member that will be in the interview will come take you to the interview.

How did you feel about the written section and was the panel more EI or clinical 

Specializes in Critical care.

I felt like the interview was a good mixture of both. And the written portion wasn't bad at all!

The written section wasn't that bad at all. I, as well as other people I know that interviewed at TU, was only asked 4 clinical questions related to my specialty. The rest of the questions were all EI.

Thank you ?? 

Approximately how long did interviews take for those that have done it? The multiple emails for time changes/scheduling inconsistencies on such short notice is frustrating ngl. Very costly for out-of-state travel plans. ?
