CRNA programs in Mississippi

Mississippi has 2 accredited nurse anesthesia (CRNA) programs: University of Mississippi Medical Center Nurse Anesthesia Program, University of Southern Mississippi Nurse Anesthesia.

Minimum GPA requirements at Mississippi CRNA programs range from about 3–3.2. Competitive applicants usually exceed the stated minimum, so aim for a 3.5+ cumulative and science GPA where you can. Boost scores your GPA against every program's real bar.

1 of the 2 programs lists a GRE requirement, and 2 of them state a CCRN requirement in the data we've verified. The CCRN isn't a COA accreditation requirement — the COA asks for a nursing degree, an unencumbered RN license and a year of critical-care experience — so programs differ on whether they ask for it. Requirements change by cycle — verify each program's page for the current cycle.

Listed minimums range from 12 months of adult ICU experience, though most competitive applicants bring 2+ years in a high-acuity unit. Boost tracks your ICU months against each program's requirement.

Total tuition at Mississippi programs runs roughly $87k–$87k, before living costs and fees. Public/in-state programs tend to sit at the low end. See each program's page for its full cost of attendance.
