Will I ever become a CRNA?

[oopymoss]

Hi

As embarrassing as it sounds, up to this date I thought I could become a CRNA after finishing my Bachelor of Nursing, getting a RN license, 1 years ICU experience but now that I have realized that you have to have a BSN degree to get into a CRNA program, I am really ****** at myself.

My Nursing program starts in July and I know there is nothing I can do, even if I can I wouldn't because I do not want to miss this intake too. Can you tell me what can I do after finishing my bachelor of nursing that will make me eligible for a CRNA program?

Thank you for your inputs in advance.

I could be very wrong, but I didn't think we had CRNA's in Aus:confused:

If your program is 4 years and you are going for a baclors degree in nursing then you should be fine

Bachelors is a 4 year program, undergraduate. You have to have a BSN (most US programs require this, correct me if I'm wrong." Then u work in ICU for 2 years or so before you apply.

Most just require 1 year experience (but they prefer more)
