If you trained outside the US
This program cannot sponsor a student visa. It has not set a citizenship rule, so a permanent resident or an applicant who already holds work authorization may still be eligible.
“The LPN-BSN, RN-BSN, MSN, Post-Graduate Certificates, PhD, and DNP programs in the OU College of Nursing are hybrid and/or online or part-time programs. The F-1 visa regulations require in-person courses, and these programs do not meet those requirements. Thus, international students are not accepted for these programs. International students are only eligible to apply for the ABSN and TBSN pathways as they have in-person requirements.”
Requirements change between cycles, and a program can say one thing on its website and another in an email. Confirm with the program before you pay for a credential evaluation or an English exam. We do not advise on visas or immigration. The full route, step by step
University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program — frequently asked
What GPA does University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program require?
University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program lists a GPA of at least 3.0 across all college coursework. Minimums are a floor, not a target — admitted applicants are frequently above them, so treat the stated number as the bar to clear rather than the goal.
How much ICU experience does University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program require?
At least 12 months of critical-care experience. Most programs want that experience to be recent, in an adult ICU, and at high acuity — the unit you work in usually matters as much as the number of months.
Does University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program require the GRE?
University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program's admission requirements don't list the GRE. Requirements change between cycles — confirm on the program's official page before you rely on it.
How long is the University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program program?
36 months of full-time study, awarding the DNP. Nurse anesthesia programs are front-loaded and clinically intense; most discourage working during the program.
How much does University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program cost?
University of Oklahoma Nurse Anesthesia Program publishes a total of $95,000 for in-state students and $195,000 out-of-state, including fees. Books, living costs and any fees not included come on top, and because most students can't work much during the program, budget for living expenses across its full length.
