Note for Foreign-Educated Physicians

We frequently receive inquiries from physicians trained in another country and not practicing in the U.S. about enrolling in the FIU Nurse Anesthetist program. Because Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) certification and Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner (ARNP) licensure requires having an RN license, physician applicants do not qualify.
