What are my chances?

Hello. I know this is probably a very common topic that members here post, but I am aspiring to become a crna and am curious about my chances and ways to become a better candidate for school.

Experience: 1 year med/surg out of school and then transferred to CCU/MICU in level II trauma center and have been there for 1 yr

CCRN: obtained recently

GRE: 159Q 154V 4.5writing

GPA: 3.88 from BSN program

took 6 DNP research grad classes with a 3.8 gpa

I've recently started to shadow an anesthesiologist (being that there are no crnas in my facility) and am learning so much about the anesthesia profession. I'm interested in the CRNA program at Rutgers, UPenn, and Duke. So far, I've only applied to Rutgers. In addition to my chances, I was wondering if I could get an idea of how these programs are. Also, is there anyone else out there applying to Rutgers?

Im very familiar with rutgers in general and I've heard good things about the program from people, however, I've also had trouble finding reviews about it online. And I haven't heard anything yet. I'm dl glad you responded bc I don't know anyone else would applied there. If you don't mind me asking, what are your stats like??

I applied on the 20th and they received all my transcripts today. I'm applying to UB, TCU, Baylor. Did you check your status on their website.

On the website, it just says no decision. I think they email you regarding the interview. They already have pre-scheduled dates so, I think that's how it'll work. Anyway Good luck!

Did Rutgers contact you for an interview?
