Washington, known as the Evergreen State, is ranked #30 in total number of CRNA Schools in the United States.  It shares the #30 CRNA School ranking with Rhode Island, Utah, Iowa, Missouri, Oregon, South Dakota, and a few other States.  Located in the Pacific Northwest region, the State is famous for its rainy weather and being the largest apple producer in the US.  The only CRNA schools in Washington are located in Spokane.  CRNA students there speak highly of the abundant outdoor scenery and activities, like local lakes, ski resorts and hiking at Spokane River Centennial Trail.

Washington is not part of the RN Compact States agreement that allows RN nurses to move around freely and work within all 33 approved multi-license states.  Because Washington State is not part of the RN Compact, it is very unlikely that they will be part of the future APRN Compact for nurse anesthetists.  This may be an important factor when people consider CRNA Schools in Washington.

Nurse Anesthetist Programs in Washington

There is only one CRNA Programs in Washington located in the city of Spokane as shown below:

1. Gonzaga CRNA, Spokane (Doctor of Nursing Anesthesia Practice)

The Gonzaga CRNA program is a partnership with the School of Anesthesia at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center.  The school speaks highly of the low student to faculty ratio of 15:1, one of the lowest in the country as well as the excellent NCLEX exam pass rate – since 1979, only 1 person has failed the exam.  In addition, Gonzaga provides a unique Jesuit experience with a humanistic approach of community and exchange of knowledge.

CRNA Schools in Washington

As of Year End 2020, there are 122 CRNA schools in the United States and 2.4 CRNA schools in each State on average.  To compare, there are 13 CRNA schools in Pennsylvania and 9 CRNA schools in Florida.  In addition, South Carolina and Tennessee both have 6 CRNA schools.  On the other hand, there are no CRNA programs at all in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico, Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Hawaii.  Oftentimes, the States with more CRNA schools tend to have more CRNA jobs as well.  This rule of thumb also applies to Washington.  With only one CRNA school, Washington is ranked #21 in number of CRNA jobs in the US.

CRNA Programs in Washington Acceptance Rate

The average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Washington is 6%, which is extremely lower than the national acceptance rate of 26%.  In fact, Gonzaga CRNA is the most competitive CRNA School in the entire United States.  The Gonzaga CRNA class size is very small and only 12 students are accepted with approximately 187 qualified applicants each year applying.  In general, the easiest CRNA schools to get into by State are generally in the States with more CRNA schools.  For example, the average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Florida is 30% with 9 CRNA Schools.  Nurse anesthetist programs in Washington are the exact opposite being the most competitive in the country.

Nurse Anesthetist Programs in WA Conclusion

To sum up, if you are interested in studying at CRNA Schools in Washington, there is only one school – the Gonzaga CRNA.  The Gonzaga CRNA program is the #1 most competitive nurse anesthetist school in the entire country.  Students there appreciate the suburban feel of Spokane while being part of the unique Jesuit community.  As there are not many CRNA programs in WA, I also recommend CRNA applicants also apply to CRNA Schools in Oregon, California, Montana and Arizona.

Pursuing a CRNA program in Washington may also make sense if you plan on staying within the State after graduation.  This is because it is common that a SRNA nurse can find nurse anesthetist jobs within the same State easier than students from out of State upon finishing school.

Rhode Island, known as the Ocean State, is ranked #30 in total number of CRNA Schools in the United States.  It shares the #30 CRNA School ranking with Washington, Utah, Iowa, Missouri, Oregon, Maine, and a few other States.  Rhode Island is an extremely small state, just 37 miles wide and 48 miles long.  Students at CRNA schools in Rhode Island appreciate comprehensive academic experiences with seaside culture and traditional New England township architecture.  Because it is such a small State, students often travel to nearby Boston and NYC both of which are only one to three hours away drive.

Located in the northeast New England region, Rhode Island is not part of the RN Compact States agreement that allows RN nurses to move around freely and work within all 33 approved multi-license states.  Because they are not part of the RN Compact, it is very unlikely that they will be part of the future APRN Compact for nurse anesthetists.  This may be an important factor when people consider CRNA Schools in Rhode Island.

Nurse Anesthetist Programs in Rhode Island

There is only one CRNA Programs in Rhode Island located in the city of North Providence as shown below:

1. Saint Joseph Hospital, North Providence (Master of Science in Nursing)

Although Saint Joseph Hospital is still a MSN program, the school plans to begin the DNP program in January 2022.  The CRNA program is a partnership between the Rhode Island College School of Nursing (RICSON) and St. Joseph Hospital School of Nurse Anesthesia (SJHSNA).  Located in the north part of the State’s capital, Saint Joseph Hospital has the resources of a metropolitan area with the peaceful atmosphere of a suburb.  Lastly, the CRNA school partners with 8 affiliated sites in Rhode Island and Massachusetts for clinical rotations.

CRNA Schools in Rhode Island

As of Year End 2020, there are 122 CRNA schools in the United States and 2.4 CRNA schools in each State on average.  To compare, there are 13 CRNA schools in Pennsylvania and 9 CRNA schools in Florida.  In addition, South Carolina and Tennessee both have 6 CRNA schools.  On the other hand, there are no CRNA programs at all in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico, Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Hawaii.  Oftentimes, the States with more CRNA schools tend to have more CRNA jobs as well.  Unfortunately, there is no information from BLS on the number of CRNA jobs in Rhode Island.  However, due to the size and limited number of hospitals, the job market may not be as large as that in other States.

CRNA Programs in Rhode Island Acceptance Rate

The average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Rhode Island is 20%, which is significantly lower than the national acceptance rate of 26%.  The Saint Joseph Hospital, class size is very small and only 10 students with approximately 50 qualified applicants each year applying.  In general, the easiest CRNA schools to get into by State are generally in the States with more CRNA schools.  For example, the average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Florida is 30% with 9 CRNA Schools.

Iowa, known as the Hawkeye State, is ranked #30 in total number of CRNA Schools in the United States.  It shares the #30 CRNA School ranking with Washington, South Dakota, Maine, Missouri, Oregon, Rhode Island, and a few other States.  Sometimes people also refer to Iowa as the Corn State or the American Heartland because of the authentic American way of life there.  Students studying in CRNA Schools in Iowa love the idyllic outdoor scenery, whether it be from the Iowa Great Lakes, bridges of Madison County all the way to the rustic country charm.

Located in the Mid-Western United State, Iowa is part of the RN Compact States agreement.  This means RN nurses can move around freely and work within all 33 approved multi-license states.  However, it’s important to note that there is no such APRN Compact for nurse anesthetists yet though this may change in the future.

CRNA Programs in Iowa Acceptance Rate

The average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Iowa is 10%, which is extremely lower than the national acceptance rate of 26%.  The reason for this is because the University of Iowa CRNA has a very small class size of only 12 students with approximately 120 qualified applicants each year applying.  In general, the easiest CRNA schools to get into by State are generally in the States with more CRNA schools.  For example, the average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Florida is 30% with 9 CRNA Schools.

All CRNA programs in WV are DNP programs.  West Virginia no longer offers Masters programs including MSN degrees.  WVU CRNA Program, known as West Virginia University, in Morgantown is the state’s largest traditional university.  Charleston Area Medical Center, also known as CAMC, offers an integrated program with didactic and clinical education.  CAMC School of Nurse Anesthesia is also affiliated with the Marshall University Brad D. Smith Schools of Business.  Students will attend classes at the Marshall University South Charleston campus as well as CAMC’s medical facilities in Charleston. Applications for nurse anesthesia must be submitted to both schools.

As of Year End 2020, there are 122 CRNA schools in the United States and 2.4 CRNA schools in each State on average.  To compare, there are 13 CRNA schools in Pennsylvania and 9 CRNA schools in Florida.  In addition, South Carolina and Tennessee both have 6 CRNA schools. On the other hand, there are no CRNA programs at all in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico, Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Hawaii.  Oftentimes, the States with more CRNA schools tend to have more CRNA jobs as well.  This generalization definitely applies to West Virginia as the State is ranked #20 in most number of CRNA jobs in the States.

CRNA Programs in West Virginia Acceptance Rate

The average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in West Virginia is 34%, which is significantly higher than the national acceptance rate of 26%.  The reason is because the acceptance rate at the WVU CRNA Program is unusually high at 43% because the number of qualified applicants applying to the CRNA school is very small.  Only 35 qualified applicants applied for a class size of 15 students!  This may be a hidden gem for students looking for the easiest CRNA schools to get into. The Charleston Area Medical Center acceptance rate is exactly average at 25% with 26 students being accepted out of 100 qualified applicants.

Nurse Anesthetist Schools in WV Conclusion

To conclude, if you are interested in studying at CRNA Schools in West Virginia, there are two schools, the WVU CRNA Program and the Charleston Area Medical Center.  As there are not many CRNA programs in WV, I also recommend CRNA applicants also apply to CRNA Schools in New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and North Carolina. To emphasize, the WVU CRNA Program is definitely a hidden gem for anesthesia students looking for the easiest CRNA schools to get into.

West Virginia ranks remarkably high in the CRNA job market. Pursuing a CRNA program in West Virginia may also make sense if you plan on staying within the State after graduation.  This is because it is common that a SRNA nurse can find nurse anesthetist jobs within the same State easier than students from out of State upon finishing school.

Nebraska, known as the Cornhusker State, is ranked #16 in total number of CRNA Schools in the United States.  It shares the #16 CRNA School ranking with Alabama, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, South Carolina, Virginia, and a few other States. Students at CNRA Schools in Nebraska appreciate the peaceful outdoor lover’s paradise and general stable way of life.  Several Fortune 500 companies are located in the State including Berkshire Hathaway, Union Pacific, ConAgra Foods, and Mutual of Omaha Insurance.

Located in the South United States, Nebraska is part of the RN Compact States agreement.  This means RN nurses can move around freely and work within all 33 approved multi-license states.  However, it’s important to note that there is no such APRN Compact for nurse anesthetists yet though this may change in the future.

Nurse Anesthetist Programs in Nebraska

There are only two CRNA Programs in Nebraska located in the cities of Omaha and Lincoln as shown below:

1. Clarkson College CRNA, Omaha (Doctor of Nursing Anesthesia Practice)
2. Bryan College CRNA, Lincoln (Doctor of Nursing Anesthesia Practice)

Both nurse anesthetist programs in Nebraska are DNP degrees.  Master of Science in Nursing degrees are no longer offered in Nebraska.  The Clarkson College CRNA is partnered and shares resources with Nebraska Medicine.  The CRNA school prides itself on being the only nurse anesthesia program in Omaha, having close faculty to student ratios, and providing thorough rural and urban clinical practice opportunities.

Bryan College of Health Sciences is a college within a medical center that is affiliated with Nebraska Medical Center.  The school is especially proud of their extensive clinical experience which covers specialty rotations with a 2-month and 1-month rotation in a community hospital.  Rural anesthesia practice rotations are available as well.  As of Year End 2020, there are 122 CRNA schools in the United States and 2.4 CRNA schools in each State on average.  To compare, there are 13 CRNA schools in Pennsylvania and 9 CRNA schools in Florida.  In addition, South Carolina and Tennessee both have 6 CRNA schools.

On the other hand, there are no CRNA programs at all in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico, Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Hawaii.  Oftentimes, the States with more CRNA schools tend to have more CRNA jobs as well.  Unfortunately, the BLS does not publish the number of CRNA jobs in Nebraska.

CRNA Programs in Nebraska Acceptance Rate

The average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Nebraska is 16%, which is significantly higher than the national acceptance rate of 26%.  The reason for the low acceptance rate is especially due to the Clarkson College CRNA in Omaha.  Clarkson College has only a 9% acceptance rate with 15 students accepted out of 175 qualified applicants.  This is one of the most competitive nurse anesthetist programs in the country.  Meanwhile, the Bryan College CRNA in Lincoln acceptance rate is 23% with a class size of 17 students with 75 qualified applicants applying.

Nurse Anesthetist Schools in NE Conclusion

In conclusion, if you are interested in studying at CRNA Schools in Nebraska, there are two programs, Clarkson College CRNA and Bryan College CRNA.

Kansas, known as the Sunflower State, is ranked #16 in total number of CRNA Schools in the United States.  It shares the #16 CRNA School ranking with Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Virginia, South Carolina as well as other States.  The Kansas economy is more well known for farming, petroleum and the production of natural gas.  However, that doesn’t stop students studying in CRNA Schools in Kansas from enjoying museums, gardens, zoos and famous rodeos and horseshows.  CRNA students in Kansas rave how Kansas city is centrally located, has a fair cost of living and provides a wide range of excellent schooling and cultural chances for growth.

Kansas is included in the RN Compact States agreement that means RN nurses in Kansas are able to move around freely and work within all 33 approved multi-license states.  However, it’s important to note that there is no such APRN Compact for nurse anesthetists yet though this may change in the future.  This is something that is important when people consider CRNA Schools in Kansas.

Nurse Anesthetist Programs in Kansas

There are two CRNA Schools in Kansas located in the cities of Kansas City and Wichita as shown below:

1. KU CRNA Program, Kansas City (Doctor of Nursing Anesthesia Practice)
2. Newman CRNA, Wichita (Master of Science in Nursing Anesthesia)

KU CRNA Program, formally known as Kansas University, is the largest university in Kansas with over 30,000 students enrolled throughout the State.  The Kansas University CRNA Program is rated among the top academic medical centers nationwide by the University HealthSystem Consortium.  In addition, the University of Kansas Hospital is one of the top ranked by US News.  Newman CRNA, boasts that 60% of those CRNAs locally in Kansas were trained by Newman University with 85% of those hired in the past 5 years trained by them.  That is a very impressive statistic.  Also, Newman University graduates practice in 20 States across the US, which is great because it means that graduates have the opportunity to work outside Kansas in the future.  With that in mind, the School is currently in the process of accreditation for its DNP program but still offering the MSNA degree in the meantime.

As of Year End 2020, there are 122 CRNA schools in the United States and 2.4 CRNA schools in each State on average.  To compare, there are 13 CRNA schools in Pennsylvania and 9 CRNA schools in Florida.  In addition, North Carolina and Tennessee both have 6 CRNA schools.  On the other hand, there are no CRNA programs at all in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico, Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Hawaii.  Oftentimes, the States with more CRNA schools tend to have more CRNA jobs as well.  Unfortunately, BLS does not rank the number of nurse anesthetist jobs in Kansas.

CRNA Programs in Kansas Acceptance Rate

The average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Kansas is 25%.  Overall, the 25% acceptance rate is essentially similar to than the national CRNA average acceptance rate of 26%.  KU CRNA Program reported an acceptance rate of 30% with a class size of 36 while Newman CRNA reported an acceptance rate of 20% with a class size of 20.  In general, the easiest CRNA schools to get into by State are generally in the States with more CRNA schools.

Connecticut, known as the Constitution State, is ranked #10 in total number of CRNA Schools in the United States.  It shares the #10 CRNA School ranking with Minnesota and Missouri.  Located in southern New England, many top universities are located all throughout CT in cities such as New Haven, Bridgeport, and Hartford.  The State is one of the wealthier in the US and has beautiful natural scenery including the Long Island Sound shoreline and Connecticut River Valley.  Students studying in CRNA schools in Connecticut say they spend more time in the State enjoying the local cities and scenery than taking the train and bus down to NYC.

To be clear, Connecticut is not part of the RN Compact States agreement that allows RN nurses to move around freely and work within all 33 approved multi-license states.  Because they are not part of the RN Compact, it is very unlikely that they will be part of the future APRN Compact for nurse anesthetists.  This may be an important factor when people consider CRNA Schools in Connecticut.

Nurse Anesthetist Programs in Connecticut

There are four CRNA Schools in Connecticut located in the cities of Bridgeport, East Hartford, Hamden, and New Haven as shown below:

1. Fairfield CRNA, Bridgeport (Doctor of Nursing Practice)
2. Integrated Anesthesia Associates, East Hartford (Doctor of Nursing Anesthesia Practice)
3. Quinnipiac CRNA Program, Hamden (Doctor of Nursing Practice)
4. Yale CRNA, New Haven (Doctor of Nursing Practice)

All CRNA programs in CT offer DNP degrees.  There are no nurse anesthetist schools in Connecticut that offer MSN master’s degrees.  Fairfield is ranked as one of the top 75 best grad nursing programs according to US News and one of the top 5 nursing schools in New England by the Nursing School Almanac.  Yale is one of the members of the prestigious Ivy League universities. For the Yale CRNA, the school partners with the Central Connecticut State University in New Britain CT and the clinical experience takes place at the Yale New Haven Hospital.

As of Year End 2020, there are 122 CRNA schools in the United States and 2.4 CRNA schools in each State on average.  To compare, there are 13 CRNA schools in Pennsylvania and 9 CRNA schools in Florida.  In addition, North Carolina and Tennessee both have 6 CRNA schools.  On the other hand, there are no CRNA programs at all in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Nevada, New Mexico, Vermont, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Hawaii.  Oftentimes, the States with more CRNA schools tend to have more CRNA jobs as well.  Unfortunately, the BLS does not provide employment information for nurse anesthetists in Connecticut.  However, what stands out the most about Connecticut is the CRNA salary.  The average CRNA salary in Connecticut is US$198,750 which ranks #10 in the entire United States.

CRNA Programs in Connecticut Acceptance Rate

The average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Connecticut is 17%.  Overall, the 17% acceptance rate is significantly lower than the national CRNA average acceptance rate of 26%.  Fairfield CRNA reported an acceptance rate of 10% with a class size of 15 while Integrated Anesthesia Associates reported an acceptance rate of only 25% with a class size of 10.  Finally, Quinnipiac CRNA Program had an acceptance rate of 15% with a class size of 12 and the Yale CRNA acceptance rate was 17% with a class size of 10.  In general, the easiest CRNA schools to get into by State are generally in the States with more CRNA schools.  For example, the average acceptance rate for CRNA schools in Florida is 30% with 9 CRNA Schools.  However, that does not apply to nurse anesthetist schools in Connecticut.

It seems the low acceptance rates in Connecticut are a factor of exceedingly small CRNA class sizes in the programs in the State.  The average CRNA class size in Connecticut is only 12 students comparing to a national average class size of 24 students per year.

Nurse Anesthetist Schools in CT Conclusion

In summary, CRNA schools in Connecticut are extremely competitive to get accepted due to the small class sizes.  This may be because the nurse anesthetist salary is one of the best in the entire US, ranked at #10.  If you are interested in living or working in the State after graduation, it would definitely make sense to apply to nurse anesthetist programs in Connecticut because your chances of finding employment afterwards are higher.  Connecticut is well known for the academic reputation of its educational programs and the 4 CRNA schools in Connecticut are no exception.
