I graduated from college with a degree in English in 2003 and live in CA. What is the best way for me to transition from a career in finance over to a career as a CRNA? Do I need to start from scratch?
Thank you,
Katie

SRNA NEW
by: Jay
I was recently surprised with this program exists.
Have you heard about Entry level MSN?
I believe this as with other unrelated master degrees, you can become a RN with Master degree (2yr).
As CRNA schoos are requiring ICU experience, you will then get your feet wet with starting at acute bed-side nursing then move to ICU until you are qualified for applying CRNA school.
That being said, I believe 1-2 year prereq, 2y in program, 1 y med-surg, 1-2 y ICU to become eligible. If you can go straight to ICU, that would be your luck.
I don’t know how the program is like but I heard
U of Minnesota and Metro State Univ in MN have the program and I feel this is a new trend
