Hi everyone!
I just got done talking to the nursing department at CCC and learned that they changed the points system a little. I guess they are now giving more discretionary points than they used to. I maxed out all my other points, but the discretionary ones screwed me up some. I'm an EMT, volunteer at wilamette falls hospital, and tutor at MHCC, but I get no points for that. So frustrating... Anyone else experience this?
Who else out there is applying to CCC?

Hey there! If you go to the U.S. tab at the top of the screen and scroll down to the Oregon thread, you might be able to find a few more of us applying to Portland/Salem schools. I'm applying to Clackamas this year, as well as Chemeketa and OHSU-Monmouth. As far as Clackamas goes, I don't think that my chances are great due to a lack of discretionary points, but I might get in as an alternate. Chemeketa is my first choice, though as I live in Salem. :)
Thanks I didn't know there was a spot for threads only in Oregon. The guy telling me about the program at CCC said they usually get over 500 applicants so I decided to apply for OHSU and Linfield absn programs, PCC, and MHCC as well to hopefully increases my chances. I wish you the best of luck with your applications!
