Applicants to Portland area schools 2011

Published

How's everyone doing with their Apps?

I applied to MHCC, CCC, PCC and Linfield.

It's my first year applying and I'm a nervous wreck!!!

How long does it usually take to hear whether or not you got an interview?

I was glad to see CCC changed their deadline to Feb 15th like the other OCNE schools-I think it'll make the waiting more bearable!

Anyone else want to share points to see how tight the competition is this year?

Other than Mt. Hood, I don't get too many discretionary points. :(

Heres what I *think* I have (figuring them myself):

MHCC-63 points

CCC-50 or 51 points depending on how they round up your gpa

PCC-54 points

Good luck everyone!!!

Let the nail biting, stalking the mailbox begin! :lol2:

I had 61.38. I don't think I wowed them in the interview though. There were a couple of times where I was kicking myself for forgetting to address one part of those 5-part questions...

My mail came early today so I didn't receive PCC or CCC letters either, probably tomorrow. I thought the CCC interview was the toughest!

Specializes in ICU, CVICU.

Where is everyone on the MHCC alt list? I'm 38 out of 40 :/ I had hope until I found this out. We'll see how it goes...

I am #7 and declined, so you're actually #37. :)

I'M IN! Accepted to Clackamas, and I'll be attending. :monkeydance: And now, I'll be having some drinks. :beer: For anyone fretting about a small envelope, as I was, the acceptance comes in a small envelope. :-)

Specializes in Psych.

Grats! Now I wanna hear that someone recieved their envelope today and is an alternate just so I don't have to worry about them sending out all of the alternate letters a day later...

I'm happy for you jimtithing! Go celebrate--all your hard work has paid off!

Ohhh I'm on a sunny patio drinking a delicious beer! :)

I'm number 21 on MHCC's alternate list.

One of the gals at the interview said that all but 3 got in last year and that was with 45 alternates not 40 like this year. You definitely still have a shot and I'll be pulling for ya!

Good luck and stay positive!

Also, I'm sure this can get confusing for all of us (remembering who got in where and where their decision lies) so maybe once we make our final decisions we can also say which schools we are declining?

Ex. "I got into CCC, MHCC and OHSU but decided on OHSU!" (TOTALLY not true for me! haha)

This lets those on the CCC & MHCC wait list know that they are moving up the list and how close they are to receiving a call/email etc....

Just an idea! :twocents:

I can't wait to hear some more acceptance news!!!

Congrats Jimithing!! :yeah:

I am also on the MHCC alternate list, but will be accepting my spot at OHSU. I just responded with my e-mail, so I don't know yet what number I am. I will let you all know! Good luck!!

SWEEEEEET!

Congrats!

Hello everyone!

Congrats to all of us! I hope all of us get in! I too will decline my CCC acceptance because its too far from where I live, although the faculty seemed so nice to me & my fellow interviewees. I got an acceptance letter from OHSU as well and still waiting for PCC.
