MHCC Winter 2018 Cohort

U.S.A. Oregon

Published

Hi all!

I wanted to start a thread for the Winter 2018 cohort at Mt Hood Community College. Congratulations to everyone who was accepted!

For anyone wondering: As far as I can tell, I had 53 points prior to the interview (I thought I had no chance!) and a 4.0 GPA. I obtained my CNA license after I applied, but mentioned it in my interview.

I'm currently working as an esthetician, and I'm looking forward to enjoying the summer before we live and breath nursing school!

If any future classmates see this, introduce yourself :) I figure it will be a good place to ask questions, offer support, talk about work/life adjustments and living situations, and just celebrate our hard work.

See you at the June orientation!

Can anyone else tell me how many points you had prior to your interview and all your stats (gpa, work history etc). I'm applying this fall and would love to know what to expect. Also if you were waitlisted what number you were and if you got in? Thanks!!

How many pre interview points did you have? What was your gpa? I'm applying this fall and am trying to get an idea of what to expect.

Thanks!

Not sure what all the extra fees are for exactly, but the total estimated cost of the program (full 2 years with supplies and books, etc) is around 18,000 which is not bad at all. I didn't look into PCC's...so I am not sure of the difference.

Hi there!

I had 58 points prior to the interview and my GPA was 3.85.

I did not have enough work history to count towards the application...but I do have healthcare industry experience. I work for a biomedical company. This seemed very irrelevant in my interview/answering interview questions...in the sense that they didn't really take it into account. Best of luck!

Thanks for the info Maddison. My gpa will be 3.84 when I apply and I have work experience so I hope to make it in the next go around!!

If anyone has any tips for interviewing those are greatly appreciated as well :)

My best tip is to go to the interview prep offered by MHCC...they cover so many things, even how you should dress.

Hey anh05f! I'm a year into the program at mhcc, and each term has been around $1800, it's less some terms as well

Hey girls I have a question for those of you that got in.. Was the orientation in June for fall and winter cohorts or just winter? I'm trying to plan some things before I get into nursing school but of course want to be around when I have orientation (I'm remaining positive that I will get in :))

This thread is old but I just applied to the Fall 2018 program at MHCC and just realized I made a mistake on the application... it says not to add +/- to your grades on the app but I did :( deadline was yesterday so I emailed them but did anyone else accidentally do this and still get in? I'm hoping it's such a minor thing and won't affect my chances but I'm so nervous!

Hmm. I wonder if it really makes a difference? I hope not for you!!!!
