University of Tulsa Nurse Anesthetist Program

[CowboyMedic]

Good news for the people in Oklahoma. The University of Tulsa is up for initial accreditation from the Council on Accreditation for the Fall of 2016. Hopefully all goes well and we will finally have a CRNA program in the state of Oklahoma.

Upcoming Accreditation Reviews

Yes they were deferred in October but I'm guessing they have submitted the necessary documentation to get accredited or they are waiting for June and will accept applications before then. John Hopkins has taken applications and accepted people to their class before they were ever accredited.

Sure. I'm from OK too. I hope it works out. I just remember when they started the talks some years ago. I got my hopes and then kept getting let down. I'm at an out of state school now. I encourage people from OK to not to put all their eggs in the proverbial Tulsa basket. I know you're not.

This is the information that I was given by previous people within the University.

1-year minimum ICU

3.0 GPA

Nursing Research and Statistics classes required

GRE or CCRN won't be required

3 year DNP

1st classes at 15

Around 100K tuition

This information has been gathered over the course of a few years and could very well have changed by now. We will know the requirements for sure when the application opens up on January 19th.

Thanks! I am interested to know if they will need references or any science course requirements.

References for sure. Not sure on science courses. Here is the typical graduate admission stuff off of Tulsa website.

To be considered for graduate admission, the following items must be submitted to the Graduate School:

A completed Graduate School application

Statement of purpose (admission essay)

2 letters of recommendation from a coworker and a supervisor

Official or unofficial transcripts from all universities attended

Documentation of a current Registered Nurse license

Evidence of appropriate clinical experience:

Post-Master’s to DNP completion – certification and experience as an Advanced Practice Nurse

$55 application fee

International students who studied at a university outside of the U.S. will also need to submit TOEFL or IELTS results.

The application process is pretty straight forward and probably one of the best ones that I have seen. I am almost through with my application and just need to send my transcripts in and then I'm going to hand walk some information to them since I live in the Tulsa area.

I was able to verify with a CRNA that Hillcrest Medical Center will be one of the clinical sites.

Good luck my man! I know you have been waiting on this for some time.

That's crazy to think about. I have looked at this thread many times. Their program looks legit. They have some good people making the program happen.
