Anyone else applying for Fall 2015 BSN program at OHSU?
I am getting my application together now, but I wont be able to finalize or submit it until after December when fall term grades are posted. I am only applying to OHSU, specifically the Monmouth campus. I currently have a 3.93GPA and after Fall term I will have all but two prerequisites finished. The remaining two are Writing-122 and Nutrition.
I think I have a pretty competitive application but there is still a lot of doubt.
I have experience working in long term care and also as an EMT in an under served rural community. I know I will also get extra consideration for having already taken Microbiology.
I know we are still months away from interviews or acceptance letters but it would be nice to get the conversation started and get to know others who will be applying for 2015.
Ok. So my friend who is also applying said she thought for the supplemental essay it is asking that you limit each response (economic, educational, ethnic/cultural and family adversity) to 350 words. Not the whole essay but for each category of adversity you have experienced. Is what everyone else has gathered? I wrote my essay and it's exactly 350 words, but after she brought that to my attention I am wondering if I should add more!?
Interesting...I really thought that it meant 350 words per essay question. I limited mine to 350 total. I feel like if they meant 350 per type of adversity it would have been more clear about that. Tough to tell for sure, though.
Can someone tell me what the extra supplementary questions were that they emailed you guys to complete? I am worried because I never got that email! lol
The waiting game begins!!! I wonder when the first cut of applicants will be notified?! Also, is anyone from Salem area and or currently attending Chemeketa? Did anyone else also apply at Chemeketa?

I live in West Salem and am taking a couple of classes this term. I dropped off my nursing application on Monday.

Yeah this whole waiting thing stinks. But knowing how difficult it is to get into OHSU I already have everything planned for the next year. If I don't get in this year ill be bummed but it wont be the end of the world by a long shot.
