Congratulations, Graduates!

VANA is excited to celebrate our 2025 cohort of CRNA graduates from universities around the Commonwealth.

This summer, Mary Baldwin University celebrated its first graduating class of 23 CRNA graduates. So far, MBU has seen a doubling of their qualified applicant pool ahead of next year, and they look forward to another amazing year.

From Old Dominion, 2025 will see 21 program graduates with a 100% NCE pass rate and a 100% employment rate! 71% of our graduates plan to stay in Virginia after they graduate to continue work. ODU graduates had an average of 858 clinical cases and 2471 clinical hours throughout their time.

Virginia Commonwealth University hosts their graduation ceremony in December each year and is proud to have graduated 50 new CRNAs on December 14, 2024. 98% of that cohort passed the NCE the first time, with 100% passing overall. Beginning on January 15, 2025, 60 new students began with the VCU DNAP class of 2027 and are well on their way to becoming CRNAs in Virginia!
