Has anyone heard anything back about the additional seats?

We had orientation this week, and they told us they would be adding 5 more to our class. 
 

I think it should be 6. The school was approved to go up to 33. We had 27 present in orientation, but my friend just recently dropped, so I believe the "5", came from being 28 accepted students at the time. 
 

Interview dates are Dec 13, 23 and 30th. Class starts Jan 9th.

Hi. I'm just about done with my app. I have to get the background check and drug screen to submit it with the app. 
Do you have an interview pointers? Clinical? Emotional intelligence? 
Also, did y'all pick clinical site with acceptance? 
 

Congratulations to all who have gotten in!

Congratulations to all who have gotten in! 

When you apply and are acceptance they will give you a list of clinical site options that are available and you'll will rank them 1-?

When I was accepted they offered me Memphis, Birmingham and Jacksonville. I had to rank them 1-3 with rationales of my ranking. When my friend was accepted she was offered 5 clinical site options. 

I do not live in a clinical site bug (Washington, Ohio, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida). Those that do, will more than likely be staying in that state/area but it's not set in stone. They do try and take preference into consideration especially for those who don't live in a clinical site hub but nothing is guaranteed.  We will all find out before May 1st. 

In orientation, they did say they were adding 16 more clinical sites, but I am not sure where those are and we won't find out until all of the proper approvals are signed. 
 

My interview was mostly emotional intelligence. It included 4 faculty. 3 from the anesthesia program  (the program directors) and then one faculty from the DNP program. 
 

I would know common CRNA questions and know your patient population. Know your resume and know yourself.

Thanks a lot of that insight! Fingers crossed and prayers up for an interview and acceptance into one of the added spots

Wait sorry I am a little lost & maybe someone can clarify for me. I applied in Ursuline in October for what I thought was the January 2026 start date. I got an interview invite a couple of days ago for the 30th, but after reading this forum...is my interview for the cohort starting THIS coming January?

They currently have seats available for the January 2025 cohort. If you're interested in starting in January 2025 and feel ready, you can proceed with an interview for that start date.

However, if you are aiming for a January 2026 start date, let them know to clarify your preference. They might currently believe you're considering one of the newly available seats for January 2025.

Thanks man, I going to call them today to get some clarity. How did you guys know that by the way? Like about the extra seats thing- I applied early in Oct on & did their zoom session thingy and I never heard about it 😳😳. I hope they can still interview me but put me in Jan 2026 cohort...

Emails were sent out. They received COA approval to increase to 33. There is 27 in our class currently.

They sent emails out but I think it went into SPAM inbox. 
 

I just randomly clicked my spam inbox and saw it
