2. Alternates to MHCC

   Most of the programs ask wait listed people not to call, I think the best bet is to ask people you know are on the wait list if they have heard

   Thanks for this! Did you transfer last fall? I heard a lot of it is online - I will be transferring from MHCC not CCC but I heard that for the community college students who transfer for their BSN at OHSU it's mostly online. I really can't seem to ge...

   Yes!! I heard from them on Monday, although I was pretty high on the list but they are indeed moving through. As a reminder to everyone else please notify your schools if you know whether you intend to accept, think of the wait listers! :) Good luck

5. Alternates to MHCC

   ca336 replied to nursingstudent1981's topic in Oregon

   If things went according to plan MHCC should have accepted 64 students, and I believe the top 40 of the remainders would be alternates. Make sure you reply to your alternate letter, when I did they gave me an actual wait list number and I was happy t...

   It made me smile! Hope you didn't think I was bothered by it, I was trying to defend you:)

   I do think the ugly comment was intended with humor but I will say MHCC's program for one does not take place on the Gresham campus, rather in a newer building off Burnside. And I'm fully aware that cheating can happen anywhere, but it's more blatant...

   Okay, this is probably my tenth post today - sorry! But I just got my CCC letter - as expected, I've been placed on the alternate list, however I was under the impression they were giving wait list numbers. Mine just says they regret to inform me the...

    Haa! Sylvania is mildly ugly I suppose, however MY problems with it are the at times horrendous parking, going to that side of town in general, and sorry if this sounds harsh but the students! The classes I've taken there were typically (NOT all, bu...

    You obviously worked hard and earned it if you made it in! The process has only become more competitive by the years so you should be proud :) I too am hoping for a summer of working at my new job and no homework, however it looks like I will have to...

    Interesting, thanks for that. CCC's interview process was the most brutal for me, the staff seemed nice enough but during the interview itself it seemed very intimidating! Lots of blank stares while each person was speaking, constantly wondering what...

    I too am not a fan of Sylvania! As of now it's looking like I have my choice between PCC and MHCC, leaning toward MHCC, and still haven't heard from CCC although I highly, highly suspect I will be at the bottom of their alternate list as I went in to...

    Hope I'm not butting in but curious why some of you have ruled out MHCC? Is it the strike issues or something else? I have several friends who go or went there and have great things to say, and just wondering if any of you have heard to the contrary....

    I understand it's a difficult situation but look at it this way - at least you are going through this while you can still change your mind! Follow your gut and do what feels right for you. It is a great honor to be accept to OHSU but that doesn't mea...
