Older master's-level programs often took 24 to 30 months. COA required students starting on or after January 1, 2022 to enroll in a doctoral program, and the shortest doctoral programs take three years of full-time study. If you see a 24-month program advertised, it is probably a post-master's completion degree for people who are already CRNAs.
