OHSU's Accelerated BSN program 2012 - Page 18

Hey Cinquefoil! It won't let me respond to your message. Apparently the admission's office closes at 12 on Monday so I'll be around before then. I would love to talk with a current student while I'm there. My email address is jacobhr@whitman.edu.

pdxrose--you already got your letter for the regular OHSU BSN program!? I'm so jealous! I have been waiting forever!

Hey Bugg, I'm on the waitlist so don't know anything about financial aid yet. Did they offer you nursing student loans? Were you supposed to be responsible for seeking out your own private loans? I'm a little concerned about this as well. I'm wondering if government student loan money is just drying up generally and everyone is going to have a hard time paying for school... My husband is likely to lose his job soon and so our 2011 1040 does not reflect what the future is going to be for us financially. It does seem crazy to pass up OHSU, but it is scary to take that kind of risk too. I don't know what I'll do should I be so fortunate as to be offered a spot.

Hello nursesarak,
Are you waitlisted the ABSN or the BSN program through OHSU? I am waitlisted for the ABSN and fortunately, I have received information through OHSU and FASFA regarding Private Loan lenders. Second degree programs are offered a variety of private loan options more than the traditional Unsub/Subidized Loans programs. Please feel free to contact me if I might shed a some light on what I have been told thus far on funding/loans.

hey happiness - yes I just received a packet 2 or 3 days ago in the mail. Way earlier than I was expecting too! I thought we had to wait until June or the end of May at least. which campus did you apply to?

hey emma - where did you find out more information? is it helpful to talk to OHSU? I am nervous about $$ as well...

Hey Cinquefoil! Sorry I can't respond to you directly. I'll plan on being around at 11 so I can ask some questions. Thanks so much!

Hello pdxrose. Congrats! What program are you attending, the ASBN or BSN? I hope these website are quite resourceful in assisting you in your search for private student loan lenders

Congrats pdxrose! YAY so exciting! I applied to Kfalls campus and now I'm a little anxious that I haven't received anything yet....
