How do I know when I'm "ready" to apply to CRNA school?
I 100000% agree with Annie here!! To jump on what she and @JoJo mentioned, I also applied to CRNA school with just 1 year of ICU experience. My “first application cycle” was a little different, as I only applied to 1 program since they were switching from MSN to DNP.

Aside from those I mentioned above, definitely know what makes National a unique program. Do as much research on the school and the faculty…

Hey Kayla! National is GREAT for training independent practice providers! They’ve restructured their interviews quite a bit since I was accepted – they’ve since changed from 100% Emotional Intelligence (EI) to 50/50 EI and clinical based questions. It’s a virtual panel interview with multiple faculty, the assistant program…
