Applicants to PDX area Nursing Schools 2010

Published

Hi fellow applicants for 2010!!

I wanted to start a thread for all of us who are applying to various nursing schools in the area for 2010. I have applied to five different places: OHSU-Monmouth, University of Portland, Portland Community College, The University of Washington, and Boise State University. I wanted to cover myself and hopefully ensure that I would get in somewhere. I have a really good GPA and experience as an EMT-Basic so I am hoping that that will help my chances.

Just waiting it out until they send out notifications.....I just want to hear back!!! :banghead:

Good luck to everyone who applied!

i got my letter-i got accepted to pcc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! omg!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry i can't contain my excitement better but i had to share!!!!!!!!!!!! can't wait to hear who else is hearing they got in!!!!!!!! pcc class of 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!:yeah::p:nurse::bow::hug::beer::balloons::w00t::clpty::dncgbby::dancgrp::anpom::rckn::hpygrp::ancong!::stdnrsrck:

Sorry Dharmawalk and Jenmiller, I was so excited I didn't see your acceptance messages!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just thought I would add to the celebration. I got in to PCC today too. I've officially gotten into every school I applied to!!! :redbeathe Wooo Hooo!! Congrats to everyone that has been accepted!! :yeah: I'm so excited to start school and finally be on the road to my lifelong dream of becoming a nurse!!! :nurse:

Wow Andie, that's incredible!! Congrats and good luck with decision 2010 ; )

Congrats to you PCC peeps.... tough cookie that one, with only 10% acceptance! well done yous

Thanks Jen!!

My heart strings are still a little tied to OHSU (it's harder than I thought it would be to say no to them!!! :uhoh21:) Considering all factors though, my family being number one on that list, leads me straight to Linfield. I'll be seeing you in the fall cohort!! Wooo hooooo!!!!! :yeah:

I'm on the alternate list for PCC. I'm number 15, so all hope isn't lost, but I'm still pretty sad. :crying2:

I'm sorry care_baer! Try to look at the bright side though...there were 1050 applicants, and you were so amazing, you were invited to write an essay (meaning you were in the top 14%, WOW, celebrate that! :yeah: ). And you did so well on that, you are number 15 on the alternate list!! That's fantastic! I think you will be in without a problem. I am turning down my PCC seat for sure, so just like that you are now number 14! You'll be getting a call in no time!!

Congrats to everyone that has been accepted!! :yeah: I'm so excited to start school and finally be on the road to my lifelong dream of becoming a nurse!!! :nurse:

I too got into all the schools I applied to, I wish I had applied to OHSU though.. I just didn't think there was any chance.

Now if you would kindly make up your mind and return your declination letters, perhaps we could have two more colorful I GOT IN!!! posts from board members.. hmmmm?? :p:D:D:D:D

Oh - it feels so good I think I will drop that chem class I don't need that is interfering with my gardening time!

I'm on the alternate list for PCC. I'm number 15, so all hope isn't lost, but I'm still pretty sad. :crying2:

You will get a call, I would bet on it. Two more schools will be sending out acceptance letters in the next three weeks, then Clark/WSU should be sending their HESI invitations out in June.

I know two ladies that got letters today that are holding out for Clackamas and one for Clark so no worries. At number 15 er.. 14 I would say you can buy those blue scrubs lady..

Don't worry Dharma, I'll be returning my PCC letter with a no tomorrow :)

Hello everybody.

I am on the alternate wait list for CCc's interview/essay portion of admission. My points were 53.52 with 3.73 for pre-req GPA.

Good luck everyone. And congratulations to those who are invited/accepted somewhere!

Larisa, I am happy that you are one the wait list and it is a good news :redpinkhe. There are many people are getting in from the wait list.

I didn't even know they had a waitlist for interviews but I guess it's a good idea being one of the last few schools to have theirs.
