   For anyone still waiting on hearing about the ABSN-FNP interviews, I received an email today stating that all the interview invites have gone out.

   Hey! Is anyone in here from Oregon? Would love to see another Oregonians perspective on the possibility of moving cross country.

   I recieved the same thing when they received my FAFSA. Its just a standard pin that you will use if you become an admitted student, but really means nothing right now

   Is this proctored essay for the Direct Entry program? I haven't heard anything about it before. Also, if you applied to the Direct Entry to DNP, they required a writing sample, so I find it odd that they would also make you do a proctored essay.

   My guess is they have a phone interview option, Yale offered that for people that couldn't make it. From what I have heard, taking the phone interview doesn't hurt your application at all either so thats great. I hope that OHSU also offers that :)

   This is what I have seen from past cycles as well. I am fortunate enough to live close, but 4 to 7 days is a tough turn around time for anyone flying in. Hopefully we hear by end of February :)

   Hey @mikalyam , yes I have seen this option! There is actually a lot of opportunities via either scholarship or tuition repayment if you agree to work in rural health after graduation. Definitely a perk:)

    Nice choices! I was aiming for Emory (such a great program) but I just never got the ball rolling fast enough, theres was a pretty early submission date! I applied to all accelerated 2nd degree programs also; OHSU DNP, Yale MSN, and University of Ver...

    I agree, most people I have talked to, and other schools I applied to, definitely make it more about who you are as a whole person than just your GPA. I know they are highly competitive and that if it is between you and another candidate your academi...

    Hi! I feel your concern! I have an interview next week and will most likely know if I got accepted before OHSU even sends out interviews. What other schools did you apply to? OHSU is my top choice as well so the waiting is hard!

    Hi Everyone! Quick question to all the current students about their interview attire. Does everyone wear a blazer?? I'm a female, and ill be honest, blazers do not flatter me, so I am tentative to wear one for the interview but so many people say its...
