CRNA Schools by State
How many CRNA schools are offered in your state?
If location matters most to you, you've found just what you were looking for!
Here is a tip that will help you to maximize your time and choose the CRNA program that is most suited to your achievements.
You'll notice that within a given state, or region, the majority of the schools will have the same or very similar requirements (for example, ALL CRNA schools in CA require statistics as a prerequisite, whereas NONE of the CRNA programs in Minnesota do).
Let's say that you are a well rounded applicant and you're only missing one specific prerequisite. If you've only looked at a handful of schools in your state, it may seem that all the programs require that class you haven't taken. The reality is that if you looked at schools in a different area, you may find that many programs do not have that specific requirement.
I'm not encouraging you to take the "easy way out", but in many cases, taking one additional class could put an entire year between you and your dream to become a CRNA. I encourage you to be a smart applicant and maximize your strengths by applying to schools where you already meet the requirements.
