Hi,

I can’t find a thread for this program so figured I would start one. I was wondering if anyone has got a confirmation their application was received?

Hey! Yeah we all had far too much going on!

It was my first virtual interview ever. I didn't too much enjoy the video interview.....I couldn't 100% hear one of them, and just felt less professional at my kitchen table. Ah well! Hope it went well for you!!

I agree. I even had a good connection, but there was still intermittent delay and buffering with the video feed. All in all, it went as well as could be expected, I guess. Now, we wait.

Anyone receive their acceptance packet yet? I see a couple people mentioning an email, but I haven't received that. I know they are super busy so I don't want to contact admissions yet. Just getting antsy haha.

I haven't received anything either, but it must be difficult for them to function right now. Maybe they are sending them out based on cohort?

I can't imagine how overwhelmed they are right now.

That makes sense. Just a little comforting to know that other people haven't gotten it yet either. Thanks!

I’m Summer 2020 and just got it. I think it’s by cohort and also last name. My best guess.

As someone who also works at OHSU, I can confirm that we are just taking things day by day and even hour by hour. Hope you get the email soon.

Could anyone tell me a little about what the online interview is like? I just got my invitation for the 3 year BSN in Ashland. I’m feeling pretty nervous about the changes. Is it still several interviewers or one on one?

Has anyone declined their spot on the waitlist for the Portland ABSN? Or know if there has been any movement? I'm going to call on Monday, but not sure how much info they will have coronavirus affecting their work right now. I was waitlisted as moderately likely, which I expected after I bombed the interview! ??‍♀️ I'm assuming I won't get off the waitlist but still clinging on to the little hope I have left!

I’m taking my spot in the fall cohort, but FYI they gave us until April 1st to accept and send in deposits so hopefully there will be some movement on the waitlist after that. Crossing my fingers for you!!

They're being sent by email. I received mine yesterday.

I’m sorry to pry, but which program did you apply? I applied to Ashland ABSN so I’m just wondering if emails have already gone out for that program.

[orneryscientist]

@Colette3 I applied to the Portland ABSN.
