Courtney’s Answer

Hello! Once you become a nurse you’ll need icu experience, usually at least 2 years. Many schools require a critical care certification and it’s a great idea to shadow a CRNA as well before applying. Best of luck!

Marisol’s Answer

Hi Raissa! Many schools require you already have your Bachelors of Science in Nursing (depending on how long that takes). After becoming a Registered Nurse (RN) most CRNA programs require you to have at least 1, some require 2 years of ICU experience to apply to their program. Once you are accepted depending on the program you are accepted in, it can be anywhere for 2-4 more years. Then pass the exam once you finish your program. Best wishes on your journey.
