Hello,
A bit of background on me: I am a senior set to graduate with a biology BS from a state school with a 3.53 sGPA this May. I am currently applying to dental schools this year (waiting to hear back from a school), and have considered going into MSN and medical schools. Going toward the med route means I have to take the MCAT, but I was more interested in going to MSN, then from MSN to CRNA because the tuition seems much lower than both dental and med. Also, you can get done with your MSN in 18-21 months and start working! I know CRNA programs are competitive to get into, but how competitive are direct entry MSN programs? I know there are a lot of them out there, and require you to apply through NursingCAS. I can't seem to find any information about their competitiveness, however.
Also, there are still several schools that take applications, do you think it is late to apply into the cycle as of now? I know for dental applying right now is extremely late and not recommended.
Thanks
