Members are discussing their acceptance into a program, the process of accepting the offer and paying the tuition deposit, creating a private Facebook group to connect with other accepted members, and sharing experiences with the application process and program. Some members are also discussing the competitiveness of the program based on GPA requirements.
Hi everyone! I didn't see a post for people applying to Westminster'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!
I have also applied to Westminster. I have 10 years of ICU experience, including level 1 trauma. Additional areas of practice include 1 year of Open Heart and 2 years of OR. My science GPA is 3.81 and nursing 3.89. I also have CCRN certification and served in preceptor and charge nurse roles. Definitely very nervous about getting an interview and of course good performance if I get it. Thank you for this forum-wishing everyone the best of luck!!
Do they not ask to submit a goal statement/professional essay??
Applied as well! Anyone know what's the time line when we will hear back?
It looks like last year they sent out interview invites a week after the deadline. The email they sent out said anywhere from 2-4 weeks after the deadline. So we shouldn't have to wait too long.

I was told that it is not required but they will read all documents that are submitted.

Anyone else checking their emails multiple times a day or is it just me?? I'm definitely not anxious or anything haha.
I'm literally freaking out ????????? I haven't received it anything. I keep telling myself it's OK if I don't make it with the hope that they will call me. I am so stressed

I've heard from the graduate program coordinator that interview will be held at the end of October.

Same!! Last year the deadline was Sept 30th and they were sending interview invites out by Oct 6th so I'm hoping we will find out soon.
