OSHU Accelerated BSN to MSN Nurse-Midwifery 2013

Nursing Students Post Graduate

Published

Hi all,

I have seen GREAT threads for the 2011 and 2012 applicants and cohorts to OHSU's AccBacc to MSN programs, but cannot find one for 2013. Someone suggested we make one for the 2013 applicants, so here goes! This is for anyone who has applied, is interested in the program, and wants to chat together about interviews, how they went, applications, etc. I have just seen people posting for 2013 on several of the 2011 and 2012 boards and wanted to make a 2013 specific board.

I'll start!! My interview is on the 24th and I'm quite nervous!! Bought a nice pair of dress slacks and a button down, hoping that I do well, though I'm nervous.

I will post another question that I found on the 2012 blog about 2013-ers. Has anyone found a way to go through the faculty for the Midwifery program without searching the entire nursing faculty list alphabetically? Such as a short list for the CNM program faculty? It would be very helpful to be able to associate names with faces before the potluck so I'm not squinting at everyone's names on their nametags and looking silly!

Has anybody heard anything yet? I'm in Vermont and still (impatiently & nervously) waiting. Eek!

Nothing yet! I would assume based on previous years that we'll hear sometime in the next week? By now I'm pretty certain I'll be going to my other option school, but I am still so impatient to hear from OHSU and to know if it is even a possibility!

Nothing yet...and I agree with jpdx, based on other years, it seems that first-round accepted students found out about their acceptance by either letter or phone call between March 8th and March 15th, though most people found out around March 8th-10th. Which is so soon!! These last few days of waiting really are torture...

Has anyone heard anything? I'm getting so nervous...they seemed to say that those who were accepted would know by the end of the first week of March, and anyone else could assume that they had been waitlisted or rejected. I am so incredibly nervous...

Yea. I got my rejection letter on Friday. I set up a meeting with a counselor to discuss what I can do different next time. Thin Mint cookies are getting me through in the mean time. :)

Sorry to hear that, urinegoodhands :(

I haven't heard anything. I just want to know one way or the other!

Anyone know when we should be hearing for the psych specialty?

I applied for the psych specialty so you'll get a letter any day now. They were sending letters in waves.

Oh okay, thanks. Im sorry that you didn't get in. Did you apply to other programs?

Thanks Hannah. No, my partner is a fire fighter so we aren't leaving Portland anytime soon. So next year must be my year. :). Good luck to you!

Oh, no! If people are getting rejection letters, that means that they have probably already started calling and informing those who were accepted. I'm sorry about your rejection letter. :( The longer that time goes by, the more I am suspecting that that is what I'll get, too.

I got placed on the "alternate list" with a "highly likely" status of being offered admission this year.
