University of Alabama at Birmingham CRNA School Review

by Anonymous
(Birmingham, AL)

Talk about a CRNA school to avoid.

This "school" does little more than commit highway robbery. From the moment you enter, they discriminate against minority students (it's Alabama after all), dismiss students for little or no reason, and threaten legal action against anyone who seeks redress of grievances.

Avoid this program at all costs.

Total BS about discrimination at UAB. The program doesn't become one of the most respected Nurse Anesthesia programs in the Country by discrimination. Would be willing to bet the race baiter didn't even go to school at UAB. Probably sour grapes or Affirmative Action candidate that failed to be accepted. When I attended anesthesia school at UAB, the ratio was 44 applicants per position. I was turned down by two other schools but instead of ******** [complaining] about it, I was persistent until I was accepted.

Worked in many places last 15 years. Always felt well prepared by comparison and proud of my education.

UAB Review
by: Anonymous

I am a graduate of the UAB program and am very pleased with the education I received there. Working in other states with other school's graduate students, I can honestly say UAB is tops. As for discrimination, try another angle. As a white female I was probably discriminated against more than you...

Not associated with UAB CRNA program, but am a physician at UAB. Have never experienced, witnessed, or heard mention of discrimination of any sort at UAB hospital in my 4 years here.

Suggest to Anonymous to stop looking for ways to cry foul over race and rather put that much or more effort in actually excelling in your studies and clinically duties. Highly doubt program is looking to fail their "token" minorities.

UAB Review

I could not agree more with the previous post. Of course, there's the usual 'token' minorities in their class roster. For the most part, the school is discriminatory.

Regardless if the school is in the South, it stands to reason that what's expected of a graduate school (especially from the professors) is a non-biased, non-discriminatory attitude.

The school certainly reflects this 'small-minded' mentality.
