Hello! I thought I could start this thread to gather as many CCC nursing students who were just accepted into the program. I figured we could share our stories and get ready for our world as nursing students at Clackamas! Congrats to everyone and let's begin this journey! I am so excited!
@alewis513 and/or BRW85 - have a lot of the 2016 cohort joined the Facebook group? I was looking at the numbers for the different sections of the classes (NRS 110 and NRS 110C) and it looks like only 29 folks have registered for both classes at this point. Just doing a little detective work, trying to figure out how many spots are taken and how many are still open (with people needing to accept or decline on the waitlist). Still haven't heard anything yet!
So I went on a different fb account and searched for "CCC Nursing Class of 2016" and nothing came up.. I have no idea why!! It is not a secret group so it definitely should pop up. One new person did find the group today so that's exciting and gives me some hope. Not sure why it's being weird though. Anyway, you can find me, Amanda Lewis on fb or give me your name and I will direct you to the page because it is there, I promise!
Bornforthis: I know of a student who didn't get accepted until mid sept last year so remember to be patient! :) I hope you hear sooner, though.
That is definitely easier said than done, @alewis513! I have plan B plans, and I don't want to put them in motion (because it costs money) if I am going to be accepted. You know? Waiting u til September just feels so cruel to me, too. That's three months from now and just waiting to hear every single day until then is NOT an easy task. Especially not when I am on the waitlist at another school and I feel like its more than likely ill hear from them before September. I just want to make plans, you know? Prepare and know where I'm headed. Hoping I hear something sooner rather than later!
Born4This-I haven't joined the Facebook group yet.I still have to decide if I am going to create a Facebook. So I don't know how many people. Wow, 29 registered? I would think more would have registered by now. This is encouraging for you...I bet after the PCC orientation on 06/18 and MHCC on 06/24 there will be even more movement.
There were several people at orientation that didn't have their student emails or their log in info to register yet. I had to call admissions and get all of that before I could register. That might be some of the reason there are spots left. Hope to those of you still on the wait list that you hear something soon
I agree you will probably see more movement after other orientations. However, if I was one of the people that was still trying to decide I would have still registered and dropped it once I figured out my best fit. Then I would at least have my lab spot holding for me. Sooo, you may even see some drops of people who are still deciding!

I have a previous bachelors degree. I looked under the my documents tab as well. Thanks for the heads up I will call and see if I can get a jump on any additional forms they need. I don't wanna delay the process anymore than needed. I didn't fill out a fafsa until I applied to CCC because I didn't qualify before hand. The nursing app said to file a fafsa before may 1 to receive aid for the program in the fall.
